Blizzard controls friendly nameplates in dungeons and raids. Addons can't touch them.
My non-target nameplates are faded or don't show at all, where can I edit that?

Step 2: NamePlates • Style Filter • Select Filter • (1) ElvUI_NonTarget • Actions • Alpha • Set to -1
How to make a Style Filter for civilian NPCs:
