    I'm going to use my great psychic powers to deduce the problem. (In other words, I'm taking a shot in the dark, completely at random! )

    The simplest solution I can think of that fits all the facts is that somehow the primary key of one of your tables (probably the recipes table, as discussed below) got renumbered, but the links to that key in the favorites and learned recipes tables weren't updated to point to the new values.

    I'm guessing you have three (relevant) tables; one for all items that show up in the UI, one for items saved as favorites, and one for recipes. In the favorites table, you have a pointer stored that links to that item's recipe. With the last patch, I'm guessing the order of the recipes got shuffled around in the database, and their primary key in the recipes table got renumbered for whatever reason. The links from the items table were updated to point to the right recipe, but my guess is that the pointers in the favorites table were never updated. Hence, the links from the favorite items table still points to "an" entry in the recipes table; it's just not pointing to the "right" recipe for the favorite saved. This explains why you get an incorrect recipe.

    When you search for a recipe instead of using the one in your favorites, it has to pull the item from the items table. Since the recipe pointers there are correct, you get the right recipe that way.

    That's why deleting and re-adding the recipes works -- you get rid of the incorrect entry in the favorites table and replace it with the working one from the items table.

    The issue of the vanishing learned recipes is more puzzling. I too had this problem happen. I did some arctic wyvern masks before the most recent patch and I learned the recipe. After the patch, I had to relearn that same recipe before I could make more masks.

    I'm going to make another wild, speculative guess here. The renumbering of the the items in the recipes table also caused your learned list to go wonky. Although the reference to the item in the learned items table still points to "something," it no longer points to the correct recipe. Hence, when you re-learn it, a new entry is made, this time pointing to the new ID of the recipe you're learning.

    Hope this helps you out.

      Ok, here's what I found when I finally managed to check my favorites (brewing):

      Fermented Yarrow - didn't show any components, but the combine button was active--clicking combine didn't do anything. Removed from favorites and readded with no problems (if I remember correctly, this is an "auto learn" combine).

      Grobb Liquidised Meat - showed corking device and grandmaster brewer's corker as components. Removed from favorites and it was gone from my recipe list--this is a "can learn" recipe. The grandmaster brewer's corker is a real stumper--it shouldn't show up in any recipe.

      Kaladim Constitutionals - no change to recipe, still in favorites, "can learn" combine

      Soda Water - No change, still in favorites, "auto learn" combine

      Qeynos Afternoon Tea - showed cheese, griffon eggs, non-stick frying pan as components. Removed from favorites and it was gone from my recipe list--this is a "can learn" recipe.

      Haven't had a chance to check my baking favorites (liquidised meats for GLM).

      Hope that helps.

        Yeah i was noticing today i couldnt add any favorite recipes and maybe have 10 as fav from all, but i would think 15 or 30 per would be alot better per trade since theres so much we can make now.

          iirc that's the recipe to take your old style brewing trophy and make it to a new style one (aka take it from the old not bag summoning one to the currently made one). So it's a real recipe, just not one that I would guess would be either can or auto learn as I don't see a reason for anybody to do that combine more than once.

            My favorites don't really work at all. If I hit the show favorites button upon opening a container none show up.


            If I do a search for one recipie on my favorites list then hit show favorites then my favorites show up.



            And 30 is way way way way way to low a number even for 1 skill let alone all of em.

              Just as an FYI, I had some additional flakiness in my recipe books after this morning's patch.

              None of the recipes that survived Friday's patch seem to have been affected, but some I had re-made or made for the first time since then were altered/missing.

              I made Barbecue Sauce again after it went missing the first time .. it was gone again this morning.

              I had made Small, Medium and Large Salads for the the first time over the weekend. Medium and Large are fine; Small has vanished. But I now have Caesar Salad in my recipe book, which I never made.

              I know you said you wouldn't have time to address the problem before this patch, so please don't think I am trying to bug you about it. Just waned to let you know what I noticed this morning, in case it helps narrow down a fix.

                      Ok I admit it I'm unobservant.

                      I'm trying to finish of tailoring and am making artic wyvern masks.

                      In my favorites I had arctic wyvern masks and arctic wyvern belts.

                      After last nights patch under the mask favorite were the belt ingredients (something I didn't catch until I'd done 20 combines (and yes I had belt patterns as well as mask)). Under the belt favorite was the ingredients for arctic gloves.

                      I deleted my favorites and then searched for artic wyvern. It found both belt and gloves - now I've never made gloves .... I had to re-experiment to get masks back.

                      One final note: the tribute guy gives 18 for a mask and 440ish for a belt. Too bad I really needed those extra studs.

                          I had a favorites bug, too...

                          I was trying to make medium quality folded sheet metal in PoK, but when I clicked on the recipe, it told me "Only Barbarians can use this forge". I was able to click the experiment button and do the combine manually with no problem.

                              All of my cultural learned recipes were no where to be found this afternoon.

                              Then when I went to make Infused Mithril boning, I clicked on teh learned recipe and it said i needed small brick of mithril, Chunk of infused emerald? which i have never heard of, file and water.

                              I searched again and it showed up normally.

                                I got burned by a diifferent version of this bug. The forge had velium bits listed as a favorite. But when I combined it, I got back a small brick of velium. The recipe had somehow mutated into 3 small pieces. When I searched for the recipe again, it worked fine after that. (60pp of velium lost to the bug monster.)

                                Also, I learned the wyvern mask recipe yesterday. Today, I only have the arctic wyvern belt recipe available. No loss, just a pain on this one.

                                I hope these get fixed soon.
