Hide Admin Bar removes the WordPress admin toolbar from the front-end for non-admin users. Reduces clutter and hides admin-only options from regular visitors.
What this feature does
WordPress displays a top toolbar on the front-end when logged-in users visit your site. This admin bar provides quick links to the dashboard, edit buttons, and notifications. For regular users, it adds no value and clutters the interface. For security, it hints at the existence of a wp-admin area.
This setting hides the admin bar from all non-administrator users on the front-end. Administrators still see it. This keeps the front-end clean and avoids exposing WordPress URLs.
How to enable it
- Open AdminEase > Users.
- Toggle Hide Admin Bar on.
- Save. The bar disappears for non-admins on the next page view.

Troubleshooting
Admins still see the bar. Is that correct?
Yes. Administrators always see the admin bar for convenience. Only non-admin users have it hidden. If you need to hide it for everyone including admins, you would need custom code.
Does this affect the admin dashboard?
No. The admin dashboard itself is unchanged. This only affects the front-end toolbar visible when logged-in users browse your site's public pages.
