🆕 What's New in v1.0.8

New Aura Positioning

Aura icons can now be positioned:

Top
Left
Right

This is especially useful when many nameplates overlap and a horizontal layout provides better visibility.

Separate CC Icon Size

Crowd Control icons now have their own independent size setting.

You can keep regular DoTs compact while making important CC effects larger and easier to recognize.

Totem Icon Mode

Shaman totem nameplates can now be automatically replaced by their spell icons.

Instead of several small 5 HP nameplates filling the screen, important battlefield objects remain immediately recognizable with significantly less visual clutter.

The settings menu has been reorganized into compact tabs:

Nameplates
Auras
Totems
Castbar
Target
Tools

This keeps the interface much cleaner as Blizz Nameplates+ continues to grow.

🔎 Missing Spell / Aura Recorder

Missing a spell, DoT, proc or custom-server aura?

The built-in recorder creates one complete, copyable diagnostic report — no screenshots or manual chat commands required.

Open the BNP settings.
Go to Tools.
Click Missing Spell / Aura...
Select the affected unit.
Click Start Recording.
Apply the aura.
Refresh it while it is active.
Let it expire or remove it.
Click Stop.
Click Copy Report.
Paste the report into your bug report or support message.

The report can include:

Spell IDs
Aura timing
Target information
Refresh events
Relevant aura state changes

The recorder is completely inactive until Start Recording is pressed and stops when the recorder window is closed.
