v8.5.7
What's new
**EllesmereUI Build v8.5.7**: Live on Wago NOW, Live on Curseforge/WoWup in ~10 minutes
- **NEW: Unit Frames: Boss Cast Bar Interrupt Tracking** - Boss cast bars now get the full interrupt toolkit: colors that shift as your kick comes off cooldown, a mid-cast ready tick and segment, a custom uninterruptible-cast color, a fill opacity slider, and an optional idle-hide toggle.
- **NEW: PTR Nameplates: Debuff Filter Editor** - Choose exactly which debuffs and crowd control show on enemy nameplates: layer categories like Important, Crowd Control, Boss, and Dispellable By You, and exclude individual spells by ID. Replaces the old Show All Your Player Debuffs checkbox on the 12.1 client.
**Chat:**
- Receiving a whisper while in a Mythic+ key or other restricted content no longer triggers error messages.
**Cooldown Manager:**
- Hosting a buff that collides with a cooldown slot on a Cooldowns or Utility bar no longer throws an error on every refresh.
- Toggling off a bar-wide custom color, border color, or threshold seconds value for a spell now restores that spell's own prior value instead of resetting it to default.
**General:**
- Importing an exported profile during your very first login no longer risks the first-run setup silently overwriting the imported cooldown layout, positions, sizes, or custom colors.
- Added Traditional Chinese translations for option labels introduced in recent updates.
**Nameplates:**
- **NEW: Combine Spell Name and Target** - Merge cast text into one line
- Fixed a bug that could make it hard to click or target the correct enemy in overlapping packs.
- Aura icon spacing and class resource bar spacing sliders now go down to -5, letting icons and bars sit closer together or slightly overlap.
- Fixed the target arrows overlapping the raid marker when marking your current target; arrows now reposition the moment a marker is added or removed.
**PTR Cooldown Manager:**
- Tracking Bar decimal duration text no longer gets stuck on an old threshold when the update is briefly blocked; it now retries until it lands.
**PTR General:**
- Restored the colored dispel-type border and glow art on aura icons after a Blizzard interface change on newer 12.1 builds.
- The Show Spell ID on Tooltip developer option now shows spell IDs on aura tooltips while in combat or restricted content.
**PTR Nameplates:**
- Fixed the target-direction arrows causing errors on the newest 12.1 builds.
- Debuff, buff, and crowd control icons no longer stop appearing during large Mythic+ or raid pulls.
**PTR Raid Frames:**
- **NEW: Grid Wrap for Tracked Auras** - Wrap icons into rows and cap how many show
- Enabling a buff tracker, adding a debuff tile, or first showing an aura display mid-combat now appears immediately instead of waiting until combat ends.
- The Buff Manager Enable Threshold and Text Color controls now actually recolor a buff's countdown text as it nears expiration.
- Spells can now be added to a custom Buff Manager filter by searching their name, instead of only by entering a numeric spell ID.
- The Edit Excluded Debuffs list under the Debuff Manager preview has been removed; built-in sated and always-hide debuffs are still filtered automatically.
**PTR Unit Frames:**
- Right-click pinging over the Pet, Target of Target, and Focus Target frames now correctly marks the shown unit instead of falling through to a world ping.
**PTR Unit Frames & Nameplates:**
- Viewing a unit whose class is privacy-restricted no longer spams errors or causes stutter; affected frames now fall back to reaction coloring and default class icons.
**Quest Tracker:**
- The quest map pin icon no longer briefly flashes on tracked objectives when quest icons are turned off.
**Raid Frames:**
- **NEW: Centered Party Growth** - Keep frames centered as the group grows
**Unit Frames:**
- Boss frame power bars can now show a colored border with adjustable thickness, matching player, target, and focus.
- Disabling Show Expand Button on the Blizzard-style player aura reskin no longer causes errors and lag in raid combat, and custom icon borders no longer revert to Blizzard's default on reload.
