Hides the Blizzard Raid Frames

The way this addon works it completely disables the Blizzard Raid Frames and Manager, so there will be no chance of taint

Slash Commands: /hr, /hideraid - - - toggles the Raid Frames

This also disables the Raid Profiles options panel & Raid-Style Party Frames since they are part of the Blizzard Raid Frames addon
If you delete this addon, the Raid Frames won't magically come back! Just use the below macro to toggle them back

This macro does almost the same thing, but then Normal Party Frames will also be disabled. The reason is that Blizzard sets the Party Frames position from the Raid Frames addon

/run local f = IsAddOnLoaded("Blizzard_CompactRaidFrames") and DisableAddOn or EnableAddOn for _, v in pairs({"Blizzard_CompactRaidFrames", "Blizzard_CUFProfiles"}) do f(v) end ReloadUI()

Well shit, you're right. How did nobody notice this after 7 years?

I updated the addon but in the future if you want to just use the macro, you will also need to turn this script into an addon to keep the default party frames. The reason is that Blizzard sets the Party frames position in the Raid frames addon
if not PartyMemberFrame1:GetPoint() then PartyMemberFrame1:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", 10, -160) end

FYI, as of 7.2.5 this is still very much needed as if you hide raid frames with any addon you still run the risk of taint such as CompactRaidFrame:ClearAllPoints()

So if you have no iuse for the default raid fames or the raid frame manager then use this or the macro, it eliminates issues!

You know this is disabling when you can't see raid profiles in Interface > Game

This addon or this macro is a must if you use any addon that hides and replaces the default compact raid frames (grid, shadowed unit frames, elvui) as you WILL get taint from having the default blizzard addons enabled.

The drawback of disabling this addons is that the raid utility pull out that includes the ready check button and the world markers will be disabled. This means you need to find other means to use them (which is not hard to do).

Another addon might conflict with it, does it also happen with all other addons disabled? Otherwise try removing this addon and using the macro in the description instead

Well, it seems the addon does something more than the macro, this failure suggests:

Don't use if you have ElvUI installed. Destroyed my whole Interface...

ElvUI probably tries to do something with the raid frames. The raid frames are basically gone/removed when you use HideRaidFrame, while ElvUI still assumes they exist. You can enable the raid frames again with this script to fix the problem:

/run for _, v in pairs({"Blizzard_CompactRaidFrames", "Blizzard_CUFProfiles"}) do EnableAddOn(v) end ReloadUI()

The way HideRaidFrame works is it simply disables the "Blizzard_CompactRaidFrames" addon (without any chance of taint). Addons or UI compilations need to check if these raid frames actually exist before doing anything with them, otherwise it will give errors.

There is nothing that can be done or fixed from my end. Other addons need to take into account that the Blizzard raid frames might be gone from the global namespace.

tl;dr ElvUI is trying to access something that doesn't exist (anymore).

it has been a while since I used ElvUI but I'm 90% sure there is an option "Hide Blizzard Unit Frames" or similar, so I'm not sure why you would need to run this anyway

ElvUI indeed has its own option for this

https://gist.github.com/anonymous/a9dce3de4f058fa2922f9c7d9308d612

The difference is just in the way how we disable it, I personally think the following way is much cleaner (but you have to enable it again manually if you want it back)

/run DisableAddOn("Blizzard_CompactRaidFrames")

Does this keep the raid manager, or it removes that too?

I deleted my WTF folder cause my auctioneer plugin broke the AH and I wasn't seeing it anymore. This plugin stopped working too. I really need this because the blizz default raid frames hurt my eyes. Any way to fix it?
