Threat Plates
Classic Version
A classic port of Threat Plates is available here: Threat Plates (Classic).
About:
Threat Plates (TPTP for short) is a addon for customizing your nameplates. It offers a high amount of customization and tweaks to how your nameplates react and look. It also offers some unique features that are not available with any other nameplate addon. I've spent a considerable amount of time improving this addon and any comments or concerns about this addon are appreciated. I'm always looking for ways to improve this addon.
Starting with version 8.6.0, Threat Plates now is a standalone addon that no longer requires TidyPlates. Please enable only one of these two nameplate addons, otherwise two overlapping nameplates will be shown for units.
Features:
- SharedMedia support and many, many, options for name, health, level, and spell text. As well as all of the standard nameplate features such as castbar and icon, elite icons / textures, skull icons / textures, raid marks, and healthbar coloring/alpha/scale.
- Ace3 profiling.
- Low memory footprint.
- Threat system management.
- Automatic talent detection and role assigning for an easy out of the box setup.
- Customizable widgets.
- Customizable totem nameplates.
- Customizable nameplates for extra customization for specifically named units.
Commands:
- /tptp - Displays options.
- /tptptoggle - Toggle Role from one to the other.
- /tptpdps - Toggles DPS/Healing threat plates.
- /tptptank - Toggles Tank threat plates.
- /tptpol - Toggles nameplate overlapping.
- /tptpverbose - Toggles addon feedback text.
Additional Information:
- A considerable amount of information about options and its internal priorities are not gone into details. Most options that are enable or disable based will toggle off options that are no longer changeable once enabled or disabled. If you have any questions about options and what they do, feel free to leave a comment or PM me here for more information.

Hey, first of all, this is the best addon I have ever seen.... great work. I have however an issue right now. Under the transparency tab is the option to reduce the transparency of Units which are hidden behind objects (dont know how the option is called in english, I use the german version). My game freezes for about 8 seconds when i click the checkbox to activate this option. After the freeze, the checkbox isnt set. Is this a known bug or is there a problem on my side? Its a fresh WoW-installation and i dont have any other addons currently.
Hi,
I love the addon. However for some reason there is no nameplates for totems, even though they are enabled. What could be wrong?
I have ElvUI as well, however I had disabled nameplates.

Hi, love this addon so much.
Currently in arenas (not sure elsewhere as its mostly all i do) target markers disappear.
Also i have friendly nameplates set to click through and that turns off in arena too.
First, tanks for your hard work during all these years, i'm back after a long while and it's a pleasure to find this addons still up to date :)
As a Demon hunter, my sinful brand debuff won't show, i've tried whitelisting it but it won't work either. Known problem or i do something wrong?
In reply to sweetxtc63:
You cannot change the size of the border currently. You can select a thinner border or a totally different texture (like an arrow).
Hey there,
any chance you'll add RP-name support for Total RP3?
Thanks!
In reply to Zakkie2000:
That is currently not supported by Threat Plates and I probably won't implement it anytime soon. I am working on adding scripting to Threat Plates. There is an alpha version, see https://github.com/Backupiseasy/ThreatPlates/wiki/Scripting-Custom-Styles. As an example, I implemented a custom style that colors the healthbar in execute range (currently only for warriors). The example style servers as a proof of concept.
If you are experienced with Lua, you could try to implement your feature with such a script.
There is still a long way to go until this is finshed, but you can try it. Just make sure to backup your settings (going back to the current release with updated settings will fails).
Always looking for beta testers :) Feedback is highly appreciated.
After upgrading to Threat Plates 10.1 I noticed that my Target of Target info displayed in IceHud seems to have gotten corrupted. With Threat Plates loaded there are no Lua errors but the bar shows "Bad unit: 'targettarget'" as the text instead of [Name] or [PercentHP:Percent]. If I disable Threat Plates again it goes back to displaying correctly. Both addons use LibDogTag. I'm guessing it has something to do with the way you implemented the custom status text from LibDogTag?
In reply to sdmatrix:
Yes, I see that same error. I added some code (you can call it a hack) to enable LibDogTag-Unit for nameplates. As it seems, it's not without sideeffects :}
In reply to sdmatrix:
This issue should now be fixed with version 10.1.2 - It's still not perfect, but for the time being it should work. The best solution is to create a patch/pull request for LibDogTag-Unit to support nameplates. I will do that as soon as possible and then remove the current workaround.
In reply to Backupiseasy:
10.1.2 is working great for me. Thanks for both the quick responses and workaround!
What is all this text inside the healthbar now and how do I get rid of it please?
In reply to Annekynn:
I added a feature to freely customize the status text (by default its the unit's health). But it's not enabled by default, so nothing should have changed with this release. Can you make a screenshot of how it looks for you? You can also check your settings under General - Status Bar. It should be Health for headline view and NPC Role, ... for headline view.
In reply to Annekynn:
In reply to Annekynn:
By any chance, are your settings for status text None? It think in this case it is bugged in 10.1...
In reply to Backupiseasy:
Yes status text is set to none. Setting healthbar view from smooth to classic and back seems to have made that status text go away on neutrals, but on hostiles its still there since the latest update though reloading UI helps.
In reply to Annekynn:
This issue should now be fixed with version 10.1.2, I hope :)
Hey man ,
i am always glad to see when this addon comes closer to the first page of this website , a short while ago it was already on page 2 !
That is well deserved, i am just loving this nameplate addon.
So i would like to ask if we can manually change the (x,y) for the Crowd Control Auras . Stacking all the auras above the healthbar makes it hard to see.
Its just way more clear to see if the icon is right or left of the healthbar (preferably right just where the cast icon is)
i hope you can make this possible
keep up the good work
After update, not working with TellMeWhen Addon
