Disabling the Admin Bar | Where does code go?

Question

I need to disable the admin bar for subscribing user ( not the admin).

I found these code snippets here on SE.

However I don't know what file to edit or where to put the code exactly. I have experience with PHP, HTML, etc. Just not so much with the WP (3.4.2).

Thanks.

This would go in your theme's functions.php file. This is a small tweak, but things to remember are that:

If you ever change your theme, you'll need to remember to copy this over to the new theme
It'd be better to put these types of "system tweaks" into your own plugin, which you can read about here

Please re-read my answer - This would go in your theme's functions.php file. So - something like /wp-content/themes/YOURTHEME/functions.php at the end, before the closing ?>

Do you have a starter plugin I can use...to use as a repo for these little snippets...online maybe.

Sure - pastebin.com/hu2hPhDa just save that as something like starter-plugin.php, drop that in the wp-content/plugins directory and then activate it. You'll probably want to modify that header information to something else, but should be fine as-is. Thanks.
