Hide WP Toolbar

Descrição

Easily hide or show the front-end WordPress Admin Toolbar with a click of a button. The plugin adds a special button to the right side of the WordPress Admin Toolbar that only displays when you are outside the admin area of WordPress on the front-end. Clicking it will make the admin bar slide off the page to the top left corner, leaving only the hide/show button visible. Clicking the button again will restore the Toolbar to its original position. The shown/hidden position is remembered between page visits so that it can be kept hidden away until you are ready to bring it back.

There are no options or configuration. Just install and activate the plugin. When you exit the admin area, you will see the button to the far right of the Toolbar.

I actually like the WordPress Toolbar. It’s a convenient way to go back and forth from the admin area to the public website. However, when I’m doing design modifications for a theme, the Toolbar can be visually distracting. I wanted a quick way to hide the WordPress Toolbar when needed, but otherwise keep it around. I tried several plugins but they didn’t work as I wanted or didn’t even work at all in some cases. So I decided to build my own.

FAQ

Are there any settings for this plugin?

Nope. No settings page is created. Just activate and start using. No configuration required.

Why does the toolbar flash briefly between page loads when in a hidden state?

The toolbar uses CSS to hide and since the toolbar always shows by default, there may be a brief moment where it appears before the CSS is fully loaded to hide it. This is standard behavior for CSS and applies to everything on the page.

the restore button is supposed to be an arrow but it’s showing as a magnifying glass which does not work to slide it back out. it’s broken or something but it’s not usable.

WordPress transients are not working. I tested it with a clean install of Wordpress 6.0 and the toolbar state is not saved. I have to click the button every time I refresh the page.
