Question

I have a wordpress website, where i am providing customers with user name and password to access my shop.

When a customer logs in, he can see the top wordpress admin bar as well. I dont want users added as "customers" through users>add new to see that bar.

How should i disable this?

Answer 1

If you look at user profile in WordPress administration you would see that there is an option: Show Toolbar when viewing site. If you uncheck this option user will not see an admin bar.

This option is checked by default when user is registering to your store. You can disable it using user_register filter.

function wpse_278096_disable_admin_bar( $user_id ) {

    update_user_meta($user_id, 'show_admin_bar_front', false);
}

add_action( 'user_register', 'wpse_278096_disable_admin_bar', 10, 1 );

Answer 2

Just add the below code to your theme function.php file and you should be good.

add_action('set_current_user', 'customer_hide_admin_bar');
function customer_hide_admin_bar() {
  if (!current_user_can('edit_posts')) {
    add_filter('show_admin_bar', '__return_false');

  }
}
