Please provide any additional information below.

  Please allow us to hide the Friends: n  on the text portion of the addon. It is fine on the tooltip but as so many have migrated to battle net friends lists instead of purely in game only friends, often the friends lists is 0.

+ Edit: Much like how you hide the guild count already if someone is not in a guild. Maybe put in a conditional statement that if the friend count is 0, hide the text?

  Using Talyruis' great idea, I expanded on it to include the total count as that can be useful in view guild members leaving or friends leaving plus I like numbers ;)

  function DataObject:UpdateDisplay()
  	local output = ("%s: %s%d/%d|r"):format(_G.FRIENDS, _G.BATTLENET_FONT_COLOR_CODE, OnlineFriendsCount + OnlineBattleNetCount, TotalFriendsCount + TotalBattleNetCount)
  
  	if _G.IsInGuild() then
  		output = ("%s %s: %s%d/%d|r"):format(output, _G.GUILD, _G.GREEN_FONT_COLOR_CODE, OnlineGuildMembersCount, TotalGuildMembersCount)
  	end
  
  	self.text = output
  end
  

  This utilizes the existing color scheme to color the bnet count blue and guild count green while using the default broker display font color for the labels.

  Here is the code edit I do to get this working. This is the entire function:

  removed old code as it was not working as intended

  I submitted a feature request that would allow you to do this if it were implemented.

  Quote from Ticket #1 - Feature requests:

  • Add an option to reformat the string used for the broker's text. RealID Toons does something similar. I'd prefer to add the friends and Real ID counts together (ignoring duplicates and those who aren't in-game), as well as use different colors to match the rest of the brokers in my UI. In the meantime, I've changed my local copy as follows:

  function DataObject:UpdateDisplay()
  	local output = ("%d |cFF3E819B%s|r"):format(OnlineFriendsCount + OnlineBattleNetCount, _G.FRIENDS)
  
  	if _G.IsInGuild() then
  		output = ("%s %d |cFF3E819B%s|r"):format(output, OnlineGuildMembersCount, _G.GUILD)
  	end
  
  	self.text = output
  end
