Hide admin bar component for some users

I have a website where members are registered with one of two roles. For one of the roles, I want to hide the ‘activity’ component. I was able to remove the component for the user navigation menu using bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity') but the link still shows up in the admin bar.

Could you someone please help point me in the right direction? I need to hide the ‘activity’ component from user with role A and leave it as is for user with role B.

I tried $wp_admin_bar -> remove_menu('activity') but it didn’t work.

Thank you!

after a shower — it came to me that I should just hide the menu item in CSS with the following:
#wp-admin-bar-my-account-activity{display:none;}

But this hides it from everyone… does anyone else have a better idea?

Found the solution! It was written up in the documentation! HERE

For my needs, I filtered based on roles like so:
```
function my_remove_activity_menu(){
	if (current_user_can('special_role'))
	{
		global $wp_admin_bar;

		$wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('my-account-activity');
	}
}
add_action('bp_setup_admin_bar', 'my_remove_activity_menu',301);
```
Good luck everyone.
