How to restrict top bar

[boardlife]

Hi

I have managed to restrict everything I need for our new user role. But one issue remains. Inside the WP admin there is a topbar which don’t seem to listen to the restrictions I’ve made. From this menu it’s possible to change a lot of settings in the theme etc.

How to disable this top bar?

Hi,

add to the active theme’s functions.php file this code:

add_action('wp_head', my_hide_admin_menu_bar);

function my_hide_admin_menu_bar() {
       
    if (current_user_can('role_for_which_you_block_admin_bar')) {
        show_admin_bar(false);
    }        
        
}

Hi again

Thanks for your reply. I tried this for contributors and wrote the code like this:

add_action(‘wp_head’, my_hide_admin_menu_bar);

function my_hide_admin_menu_bar() {

if (current_user_can(‘contributor’)) {
show_admin_bar(false);
}

}

It won’t work. Did I get the code right?

Please check if code you inserted into the functions.php contains real single quotes like this “‘”, not as the message above “‘’”.
