MinimapHeaderHider

A lightweight World of Warcraft AddOn that hides header elements of the minimap for a cleaner, more modern UI look. It includes a small configuration panel where you can fine-tune how the header and optional elements should behave.

This AddOn works fine in conjunction with Leatrix Plus for example. If you use minimap addons like 'SexyMap' the functionality of this AddOn is included in these most probably.

⭐ Features

Optional toggles for related minimap UI elements
Optional greeting message.
Safe: No taint, no protected frame changes
Instant apply of settings — no ReloadUI required
Zero performance overhead
Works on Retail & Beta branches (including seasonal variants)
