    There are also these:

    Hide Admin Bar Search Plugin – Hides the search bit

    Admin Bar Minimiser Plugin – Shrinks it to the left

    Admin Bar Disabler Plugin – Similar to WP Custom Admin Bar

    Or Hide Admin Bar which simple just hides it from everyone.

  3. Jessi says:

    Or you can just add these lines of code to your functions.php file (remove the *):

    *add_filter( ‘show_admin_bar’, ‘__return_false’ );*
    *remove_action( ‘personal_options’, ‘_admin_bar_preferences’ );*

    The problem I have is that I’d like to extend the Admin Bar, but my way – adding links to sites I Admin, for example, removing Appearance. Most of the plugins I’ve seen let you hide or remove the Admin Bar, which might be an indication of what people think of it – for better or worse!

    Unfortunately, with there being little in the way of documentation – even Codex just had hide/remove instructions, last time I looked – it’s a case of seeing which plugin does close to what I want, then looking at the code and trying to figure it out myself.

    For me, it’s a great idea, poorly implemented.

      It’s actually quite simple to add links to the admin bar, though you’re right that it could be documented better. I found this answer over at WordPress.SE the most help in figuring it out.

      Do you have it unchecked at Users -> Your Profile in your Dashboard? If not, another plugin or your theme may be interfering.

    honestly, I HATE, HATE, HATE!!!! the new admin bar. It’s an annoying and useless addition to WordPress. Junk code that I do not understand why they have added it in. And now there are a boat load of plugins to get rid of the thing because so many people don’t like it!

    To be truthful I do like having the admin bar hanging over my site when I’m logged in since it allows for easy access back to the admin if I don’t happen to have it open in another tab. It’s a fair, basic, first effort. What I would like to see in the future though is a way to extend it, as Gary says, without having to go into the code to do so. Perhaps a small section could be added to the WP admin that would eventually allow customization of the admin bar (add/delete menus/items, a possible global dashboard where someone could add links to their other sites, etc).

    Thinking about it, it would probably be best to wait a bit more and ask this question again? Let some folks get over the OMG CHANGE! syndrome.

    PerS Fade Away WordPress Admin Bar, fade away the WordPress Admin Bar when you scroll down the page.
