Remove WordPress Toolbar buttons

4 comments

1. function mytheme_admin_bar_render() {
     global $wp_admin_bar;
     $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('wp-logo');
   }
   add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'mytheme_admin_bar_render' );
   

   For specific user roles you can wrap the add_action in a conditional, something like

   if(current_user_can('editor')){
    add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'mytheme_admin_bar_render' );
   }

2. To just remove the logo from the toolbar, add this to your stylesheet:

   #wp-admin-bar-wp-logo { display:none; }

3. you can use jQuery

   $('#wp-admin-bar-wp-logo').remove(); //this will remove only WP logo
   

   Also this will remove the whole top menu bar for everyone but the admin (user 1). This will update the user meta to hide the menubar. The user will still be able to select to show or hide this but will be reset to hide. You can also hide this option from the use with jQuery.

   Place this in the functions.php file

   if (!current_user_can('administrator') || get_current_user_id() != 1)
   {
       $user_id = get_current_user_id();
       update_user_meta( $user_id, 'show_admin_bar_front', false );
       update_user_meta( $user_id, 'show_admin_bar_admin', false );
   }
