How to Hide the WordPress Toolbar when you are Signed In
When you log in to your WordPress admin dashboard, you’ll see there is the WordPress toolbar, located at the very top of the screen. Some people find it is very helpful, others think it is distracting. Today we are going to show you three methods on how to get rid of it.
Method one: Changing the Setting
Steps:
- Go to the WordPress Dashboard

- Edit your user profile
- Go to the Toolbar section, and uncheck the “show toolbar when viewing site” box

- Go to the Dashboard, then go to the Appearance menu, and select the customize menu
- Scroll down and select the Additional CSS menu
- Add the css codes
div#wpadminbar.nojq{
display:none;
}
