How To: Show or Hide the WordPress Admin Bar
WordPress 3.1 introduced the Admin Bar, a horizontal menu displayed at the top of your WP website. This Admin Bar features quick links to the dashboard, creating new posts, comments, and is only visible if you are logged in.
To show or hide the WordPress Admin Bar visit the edit profile settings page under the menu Users > Profile. Here you will find two options for Show Admin Bar: “when viewing site” and “in dashboard”
By default “when viewing site” is enabled and “in dashboard” is not. To disable the Admin Bar just uncheck the “when viewing site” option and the Admin Bar will no longer be displayed. You can also enable the Admin Bar in the WP Dashboard by checking “in dashboard”. These two settings are stored per user, so one WP user can have the bar enabled and a different user can have it disabled.
The WordPress Admin Bar is not for everyone, but it can be a valuable tool to help navigate through your WordPress website.
