Hide the WordPress Admin Bar with WPMasterToolKit's Hide Admin Bar Module

In an effort to simplify and streamline the user experience on WordPress, we've developed the Hide Admin Bar module in our WPMasterToolKit plugin. This module allows site administrators to hide the admin bar on their website's public interface for certain user roles or for all users. This feature is particularly useful for avoiding distraction or confusion for end users who don't need to access the admin bar.

Why Hide Admin Bar?

The WordPress admin bar is a powerful tool for administrators and editors, offering quick links to essential functionality. However, it can be confusing or cluttered for non-admin visitors or customers. By hiding this bar for users who don't need to access it, you can provide a cleaner, more focused user experience. It also eliminates any perception of amateurism that an admin bar visible to every visitor might cause.

What plugins can the Hide Admin Bar Module replace?

There are many plugins that offer similar functionality, but they often add other unwanted features or are more complex to configure. WPMasterToolKit's Hide Admin Bar module offers this precise functionality simply and efficiently, removing the need to install and configure third-party plugins when only this functionality is required.

Using the Hide Admin Bar module

Activating this module is simple. Once activated, you can easily access the module's settings from your WordPress dashboard's settings menu. The module adds a sub-menu to the WPMasterToolKit settings page where you can choose the user roles for which you wish to hide the admin bar.

Under Settings, a list of checkboxes appears, each corresponding to a specific role. Simply tick the boxes for the roles for which you wish to hide the admin bar, save the changes, and the effect is immediate. The simplicity of the process ensures that even the most inexperienced site administrators can configure this feature correctly.

Technical Choices and Integrations

Technically, the module uses the WordPress action show_admin_bar to hide the admin bar if required. The filter show_admin_bar is applied with a priority of 999 to ensure that it is executed later in the loading sequence, guaranteeing the overlay of a more global configuration possible. Integration within WPMasterToolKit enables modular use, where the code to hide the bar is only loaded when this module is activated.

Front-end

Once the module has been activated/configured, the administration bar will no longer be visible on the front-end for all users corresponding to the settings.
