As of Cataclysm, it seems that the Wowhead DB plug-in for the Gatherer addon has been wiped. Every time I try to import the data, all my node locations disappear entirely. Is Wowhead planning on updating their Database for the gatherer add on? It would be much appreciated if so.

I read a previous post about this and it said that is stops importing right near the end without ever reaching the end. I did some testing and found that it stops importing right at 90.4%

Best option is probably to swap addons. I'd highly suggest looking at GatherMate2 and its associated database GatherMate2_DB. Both can be found on curse.

I've tried it, but it's functionality is severely lacking, in my opinion compared to gatherer.

What are you missing? I've yet to find anything gatherer does that gathermate does not do better and faster...

I'm not saying gathermate isnt good. I personally like the path that gatherer shows. The routing system with gathermate is too time consuming to set up. gatherers hud nodes are centered, where as gathermate's hud nodes have a base at the bottom of the icon. i'm not dissing gathermate... i simply prefer gatherer and would like to know if wowhead plans on fixing the database for it

In the comments section of the WowheadDB plugin on WoWInterface, there's a link to a fully working, up-to-date database. I'll see if I can find the link, as it's probably a few pages deep by now.
Yep,
here we go

I've never had any issues getting routes working with gathermate, nor any display issues with gathermate at all (everything is centered for me :/). None of those are "severely lacking functionality" Anyway, Carusun has linked the updated gatherer database.
sidenote: It's not Wowhead that needs to fix anything. All wowhead provides them is a dump of their data; It's the responsibility of the addon developer to import this into the addon and insure it works properly.
