Hide the WordPress Admin bar with code

WordPress by default will output an admin bar for any logged in user on the frontend of your website.

While this is helpful in some instances, I much prefer to have my frontend reflect what visitors will see – with no interruptions.

Fortunately, WordPress have a simple filter to remove the bar. Add the snippet below into your functions.php as-is to remove the admin bar for all user types, or wrap it in a user type statement to only hide it for select user types.

add_filter('show_admin_bar', '__return_false');

Hope this helps someone hide the wp admin bar, enjoy!
