How to hide “post” link from the admin bar

3 Views

After studying several blogs, I figured out that to add/edit/delete admin bar items need to do something like this: 

add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'wpse20131211_admin_bar' );

function wpse20131211_admin_bar() {
   global $wp_admin_bar;
   $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('wp-logo');
   $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('comments');
}

But with this I can remove comments links, wp logo etc. But can’t remove the Post link under the + New menu on the admin bar.

I tried with: 

$wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('post');

and similarly with 'posts', 'add-post' etc. But failed.

  1. Try this:

    $wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'new-post' );

    It will remove Post link under the admin bar’s + New link.

  2. Yes you can use following code for removing new post from admin bar using remove_node.

    add_action( 'admin_bar_menu', 'wpse126067_remove_newpost', 999 );

function wpse126067_remove_newpost ( $wp_admin_bar ) {
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'new-post' );
}
