Hi,
Restrict wp-admin is showing the Admin Bar for a Subscriber.
Is there a way to have it hide this?
Thanks!

That setting has nothing to do with the admin bar, this simply will restrict the type of user from accessing the wp-admin area. There are many other plugin that will remove the admin bar.

Thanks,

Ok. Sounds good. I’ll find another plugin.

Suggestion:
From a user perspective, if they cannot get into WP-Admin area, then is there even any point displaying the Admin bar?
Perhaps an enhancement addition to consider for Restrict wp-admin checkbox.
Thanks!

We used to remove it and got told you can’t just remove it by the theme review team, we considered adding an option to remove it but then do we remove it for all or just subscribers or more? There are many many plugins that do exactly this, so no point in us adding an option for something that is so readily available.

Thanks,

Stiofan
