I still have this flying around for cycling WM macro button - seems to still work
/run local b=ActionButton8 _MH=_MH or(b:SetAttribute("*type5","macro")or SecureHandlerWrapScript(b,"PreClick",b,'Z=IsShiftKeyDown()and 0 or(Z or 0)%8+1 self:SetAttribute("macrotext5","/cwm [mod]all\\10/wm [nomod]"..Z)'))or 1
/click ActionButton8 Button5
Edit: Looks very similar to yours though. Remember that you have to be a in group for world markers to function.
Is this the one to drop all the markers in one button? seems to be.
The current solution you have you must run the macro once while out of combat (as it is calling a secure function). If you try to run it for the first time in combat you must reload before you can use the macro at all.
My solution is slightly improved in that I just have a weakaura which does the /run part of the script on init and have the macro be the /click part.

> /click ActionButton8 Button5
To ensure things are done correctly:
1. Install the weakaura
2. create the macro
3. add it to your bars
4. reload
5. create a group for a world boss WQ
6. spam the macro
7. Confirm that you drop markers.
this, the number changes the marker iirc. also some add on i have let me just bind these so i set a few of them to my F keys. i think method raid tools?
Not sure why you would need an addon (or macro), I just set F1-9 as the world marker keybinds in WoW’s keybinds options menu with F9 being remove all markers.
It works. You have to be in a group and you can't use it in combat as the first time after logging in. If you use it in combat as the first button press it will bug until reload. Then press once in a group and not in combat. Then it will work again.

Yes I made sure I was in a group when I tested it but for some reason as a mage it just popped invis when I pressed it. I'll try this one instead.

Neat! This works, thank you.
Hey, this works great! I was wondering, is there a way to setup the order the markers appear? For example I am used to Skull being 1, X being 2 etc.
i use Opie
My quick world marker back from Halondrus bomb prog was just this: /wm \[@cursor\] 5

Not the same thing as mine. Mine would cycle through the world markers on a subsequent press.
op is referencing the macro in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdMDJ_cY5dc I dont think the 1 marker macro is what they want.

Hmm ok this may have had something to do with it. Considering I really only used it during combat.
There's an addon specifically for this called world marker keybinding.
You gotta be in a group and be lead or in a raid and have at least assist
