Hide Admin Bar from Non-Admins Plugin

Hides the WordPress toolbar (admin bar) for all non-admin users. Simple plugin with no settings to configure.

This plugin hides the WordPress Toolbar (admin bar) for all visitors and users without the ‘administrator’ role. It’s a very simple plugin with no settings to configure.

  • Use this plugin for sites with only one admin who needs access to the dashboard and the admin bar.
  • This plugin is super lightweight, with just a few lines of code.
  • If you need to show the toolbar for other user roles, use the filter habfna_show_admin_bar_roles.

This plugin is a tweak of the code by Yoast to hide the admin bar for non-admins only.

How do I block non-admins from access the WordPress admin area?
