Recently we have built a social community site in wordpress and we have to create different levels of users according to their membership.So, we dont want to allow users to access admin panel and display admin bar according to their accees level.Here, we will show you how to achieve it.

Disable wordpress admin bar for all users

There are different ways to achieve it.Just put the below code snippet in your theme’s functions.php

/* Disable WordPress Admin Bar */

  show_admin_bar(false);

Alternately, you can use show_admin_bar filters:

/* disable the admin bar */
add_filter('show_admin_bar', '__return_false');

Another option, just add the below CSS code in your theme’s style.css:

/* disable admin bar */
#wpadminbar { display:none; }

Disable WordPress Admin Bar for All Users Except for Administrators

/* show admin bar only for admins */

add_action('after_setup_theme', 'tcl_remove_admin_bar');
 
function tcl_remove_admin_bar() {
if (!current_user_can('administrator') && !is_admin()) {
  show_admin_bar(false);
}
}
