Answer 2

Go to Dashboard > Your Profile > Show Admin Bar and uncheck "when viewing site"

Answer 3

This would hide the Admin Bar for all users except Administrators. Add at end of functions.php:

function my_function_admin_bar($content) {
    return ( current_user_can("administrator") ) ? $content : false;
}
add_filter( 'show_admin_bar' , 'my_function_admin_bar');

Answer 4

Add the following to your theme's functions.php file:

// Disable Admin Bar for all users
add_filter('show_admin_bar', '__return_false');

// Remove Admin Bar Options from all users' Profile page
add_action('admin_print_scripts-profile.php', 'hide_admin_bar_prefs');
function hide_admin_bar_prefs() {

?>
<style type="text/css">
    .show-admin-bar { display: none; }
</style>
<?php

}
