Remove it for subscribers, hide it from WooCommerce customers, turn it off for everyone, or target specific roles and capabilities, all from one settings page and without writing code. The plugin is lightweight and works as soon as you activate it. Trusted on **20,000 + active WordPress sites**. It’s completely free: no Pro version, no locked features, no upsells. > Simple but great plugin. 🙂 > – [wptoolsdev](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-but-great-plugin-12/) > Works flawlessly! 🙂 > – [thebrazeneye](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-flawlessly-129/) #### Why hide the WordPress admin bar? The black toolbar at the top of your site is useful for admins — but for everyone else it exposes backend links, breaks your design, and confuses non-technical users. Hiding it is essential for: * **Membership sites** – give members a clean, frontend-only experience with no WordPress branding * **WooCommerce stores** – stop showing the toolbar to customers after they log in * **LMS & course platforms** – keep students focused on your content, not the WordPress UI * **Client websites** – hand over polished sites where editors see only what they need * **Communities & directories** – hide backend access hints from registered users * **Anyone who wants a cleaner frontend** – remove the admin bar without touching functions.php #### Features * **Hide for everyone:** remove the admin bar from the front end for every logged- in user. * **Hide for logged-out visitors:** make sure visitors never see it, even when a plugin such as BuddyPress shows it to them. * **Hide by role:** pick roles such as Subscriber, Customer or Editor, including custom roles from other plugins. * **Hide by capability:** hide it for anyone who has a capability, for example ` edit_posts`. * **Nothing added to your site’s front end:** no CSS, no JavaScript, no extra database queries. #### Works with your setup Hide Admin Bar Based on User Roles works with any theme and any plugin that registers user roles — including WooCommerce (Customer role), membership plugins, LMS plugins, and custom roles. Fully compatible with Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, Bricks, and WordPress Multisite. #### More from the makers of Hide Admin Bar * **[Page Visit Counter](https://pagevisitcounter.com/)** – Privacy-first analytics inside WordPress.

In your dashboard, go to **Plugins Add New Plugin** and search for _Hide Admin Bar Based on User Roles_. Or upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`. 2. Activate the plugin. 3. Go to **Settings Hide Admin Bar Settings** and choose who shouldn’t see the admin bar. ## HSP ### How do I hide the admin bar for all users? Go to Settings Hide Admin Bar Settings and turn on “Hide for everyone”. The admin bar disappears from the front end for every logged-in user, administrators included. ### How do I hide the admin bar for subscribers or WooCommerce customers only? Under “Hide for these roles”, select Subscriber or Customer and save. Administrators and any roles you leave unselected keep the admin bar. Custom roles from membership, LMS and other plugins appear in the list too. ### How does hiding by capability work? Add a capability, such as `edit_posts`, and anyone who has it won’t see the admin bar. This helps when a membership or LMS plugin grants capabilities rather than roles. ### Can I disable the WordPress admin bar without code? Yes — that’s exactly what this plugin does. Instead of adding `show_admin_bar` snippets to functions.php (which are lost when you switch themes), you get a settings page with role, capability and guest rules. ### Does this plugin affect administrators? Only if you choose to. Administrators keep the admin bar unless you turn on “Hide for everyone”, select the Administrator role, or add a capability they have. ### Does it hide the admin bar inside the dashboard too? No. The plugin controls the admin bar on the front end of your site. Inside the dashboard, WordPress always shows it. ### Will this plugin slow down my site? No. It adds no CSS or JavaScript to the front end, and the visibility check runs once per page, before the page is built. ### Does it work with my theme and page builder? Yes. It works with any theme and with page builders such as Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder and Bricks. ### Does it work on multisite? Yes. The plugin supports WordPress Multisite networks. ### Is there a Pro version? No. Hide Admin Bar is completely free, with no locked features and no upsells. ## Pohódnoćenja ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7e7d8e92941a4599b9e8aa781b1b1c1fab3a21d934f45a404e9f659f7886c4f1? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[BEST OF THE BEST](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-of-the-best-239/)󠁿 [davidraudales](https://profiles.wordpress.org/davidraudales/) 20. decembra 2025 2 replies I LOVE IT ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dece65cb37418b96824735125ae1f17fe06d9b0c489b0bf3da73b87761e8f285? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Hides the admin bar even when I’m an administrator](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hides-the-admin-bar-even-when-im-an-administrator/)󠁿 [Norman Cates](https://profiles.wordpress.org/normancates/) 13. decembra 2023 2 replies Hides the admin bar for Administrator role, even though I've told it to allow Administrators to see the bar. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/804b2bb6e605a8742d35643a2b341e7c1f59b8542033883a8a5e58c8f9e511fc? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[hide admin bar even though I’m admin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-admin-bar-even-though-im-admin/)󠁿 [syyymonsyy](https://profiles.wordpress.org/syyymonsyy/) 12. decembra 2023 2 replies hide admin bar even though I’m admin ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d72a59cabfca89e111fbe313db3d8a6ef850f3494bb0f2848625596e97d6cdd8? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[It’s working very well after update](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/its-working-very-well-after-update/)󠁿 [mich08](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mich08/) 9. měrca 2023 It's working very well after recent update. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e87f3e9409b0fb4f52e977cd3873370428398206d41c2aefaac9710de78fa2bc? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[After an update, the admin bar appeared for all users.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/after-an-update-the-admin-bar-appeared-for-all-users/)󠁿 [upwithit](https://profiles.wordpress.org/upwithit/) 6. julija 2022 4 replies I had to uninstall this plugin. After a recent update – I'm not sure when – the admin bar appeared for all users on the front end, whether they were logged in or not. Apparently, the update requires you to opt out of that functionality. That is literally the opposite of what the plugin was supposed to do. Since I'm more or less always logged in to the site, I didn't realize the admin bar was appearing on the front end for over a week. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/887aa4f52147805dd18f3c28454c5994132bb509ba0e8fb9af4a119e63a14f61? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[AWESOME](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/awesome-9361/)󠁿 [ceef454](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ceef454/) 5. apryla 2022 1 reply I usually don't take time to give reviews, this thing is quick and magic! thank you!
