Hide Admin Bar Based on User Roles Pro for WordPress

Set the frontend toolbar rules

Hide Admin Bar Based on User Roles Pro gives website owners control over when the WordPress admin bar appears on frontend pages. Role and capability rules provide the starting point; page, device, account, and time conditions let you tailor visibility for membership sites, WooCommerce stores, learning platforms, client sites, communities, and directories.

Refine visibility by context

• Choose specific URLs, post types, or page templates where the toolbar should display or conceal.
• Hide the toolbar on mobile or tablet while keeping it visible on desktop.
• Set an individual visitor's toolbar to show or hide when general role or capability rules need an exception.
• Hide the toolbar during selected hours.

Handle inactivity and backend requests

The inactivity option slides the toolbar away after a configurable period without activity. A separate redirect rule can send visitors to the homepage or a custom URL when they try to access the backend.

Frontend visibility rules control the toolbar on the public-facing website. Separate dashboard controls can hide the toolbar inside wp-admin or redirect selected users away from backend access.

Check compatibility and configure

The add-on works with themes and add-ons that register WordPress user roles, including WooCommerce customer roles, membership plugins, learning management systems, and custom roles. It is compatible with Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, Bricks, and WordPress Multisite.

Install and activate the extension from the WordPress dashboard, then open its settings. Set the roles or capabilities first, and add page, device, user, time, inactivity, or redirect conditions as needed. Import or export the configuration to move settings between sites or keep a backup.
