Disable admin bar 4all except admin and lvl 1

Hello! Coding newbie here! So I’m only using levels 0 and 1 and I’d like to disable the admin bar for free users (basically for all except admins and lvl 1s).

I want to use the bar so users can easily navigate to the members only content on my website. I’ve been successful in disabling it for all except admins, but it’s not working for level 1s. Here’s what I’ve got:

/* Disable WordPress Admin Bar for all users but admins. */
if (!current_user_can('administrator','s2member_level1')):
  show_admin_bar(false);
endif;

What am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Could you try this instead?:

/* Disable WordPress Admin Bar for all users but admins and users s2Member level 1. */
if (!current_user_can('administrator','access_s2member_level1')):
  show_admin_bar(false);
endif;

If you prefer, or the above doesn’t work, you can use the following:

/* Disable WordPress Admin Bar for all users but admins and users s2Member level 1. */
if (!current_user_can('administrator') || !current_user_can('access_s2member_level1')):
  show_admin_bar(false);
endif;

Hope this helps. :)

Wow Eduan, I don’t think I’ve ever met a person as helpful and active on plugin forums as yourself. Thank you!
I had allready tried the first option. Unfortunately, neither of them work. :(

That’s very strange, I don’t know what could cause it. You say this works flawlessly for admin users right?

Yes.

Then I’m not sure what could be wrong. :/

You can check under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Advanced PHP Conditionals and Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› PHP/API Constants and see if you can figure out something better than what I came up with, since my idea was just a quick idea.

Well, this topic seems not solved yet, isn’t it? Even studied WP core, but couldn’t come up with a solution, despite by modifying the CSS of my (Child-) Theme (customs.css):

html { margin-top: 0px !important; }
* html body { margin-top: 0px !important; }
#wpadminbar { height: 0px; display: none; }

#top {margin-top: -28px !Important; }

As with my Theme (Canvas from Woo) the first object is #Top I had to redefine that, but in your theme it might be i.e. #wrapper!

However, would still love to see a solution to basically disable the admin, as this is more secure!

Found a solution which is doing the trick better:

I introduced another option = custom_admin_bar_disable (boolean) and added a checkbox to my Themeoptions:

$custom_admin_bar_disable = get_option( ‘custom_admin_bar_disable’ );

if ( $custom_admin_bar_disable == ‘true’ ) {
add_filter( ‘show_admin_bar’, ‘__return_false’ );

add_action( ‘admin_print_scripts-profile.php’, ‘custom_hide_admin_bar_prefs’ );

function custom_hide_admin_bar_prefs () { ?>

.show-admin-bar { display: none; }

<?php
} // End custom_hide_admin_bar_prefs()
}

Hope it will work out for you as well as for my!
Cheers!
