Ouch..It’s a rude way. The code just killing the admin bar, and lefting some space.

Try in wp-config.php:

`define ( ‘BP_DISABLE_ADMIN_BAR’, true );`

@pcwriter , can I use your code to remove adminbar from dashboard? I tried the following 3 modifications, neither of them works:
`if( is_admin())
remove_action( ‘wp_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’, 8 );`
or
`if( is_admin())
remove_action( ‘admin_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’, 8 );`
or
`add_action(‘bp_loaded’, ‘remove_adminbar_from_dashboard );`

Hi how could I do the same for wp-admin area. Also I’d like to keep it on the rest of the site but remove it from the admin.

@ri-kun

Add the following snippet to your theme’s functions.php file:

`function remove_adminbar_from_mainsite() {
if(‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’)
remove_action( ‘wp_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’, 8 );
}
add_action(‘wp’, ‘remove_adminbar_from_mainsite’);`

I’m not a rewrite expert or anything, but here’s the HTTP headers associated with the problem. I’ve replaced my domain with blah.com.

A couple strange things that I see but can’t really explain. When requesting /forums, it looks like a 302 redirect is returned to the homepage (so maybe this is a rewrite issue). Going to “members,” which does work, returns the expected 200 code.

Also, notice the really weird request to /contact/ after all of this is done. Is that normal? It’s just a random page on my site. It had previously been a different page which I tried deleting, so it was replaced by /contact.

Hope this is useful to someone.

@Symm2112, thank you as well for the ’99’ trick.

OK, I’m hoping someone else can chime in here with a way to remove the “Notifications” subnav item from the “My Account” adminbar menu, ‘cuz that’s one I haven’t been able to figure out

@jordynn

Add the following remove_action to your functions.php or bp-custom.php file:

remove_action( ‘bp_adminbar_menus’, ‘bp_adminbar_notifications_menu’, 8 );

@bpUser

It’s a custom theme designed specifically for bp.org. You can find several good themes here: https://buddypress.org/extend/themes/
Or Google ‘buddypress themes’ for more.

You might also like my BuddyLite theme. It comes with the following basic customization options:

Maximum & Minimum Theme Width
Header Height
Theme Background Color, Image, Image Repeat & Image Behavior
Show Home Page Title and Content
Community Dropdown Menu Label
Integrate BP-Adminbar with Main Menu
Select ‘Global Search’ or Standard Buddypress Search
Search Bar in Header or in Sidebar
Sidebar Left, Right or Left and Right
Main & Secondary Sidebar Width
Hide Sidebar Login Form
Custom CSS

There’s also a premium version – BuddyBuilder – that comes with a whole heck of a lot more options so you can actually design your own theme by simply clicking your mouse. See them both at http://BuddyLite.com

Hmm, that’s strange. It’s working for me exactly as advertised.
What’s the history of your theme? Is it default, child, custom etc?

Maybe cookies…
In the Admin, set “let user decide” for some fields.
Log out.
Clear your cookies, make sure to delete all cookies from the domain, and from any test domains, and any local domains (eg. mamp wamp etc. if you’re using that) that you’re developing the site on.
Log in as a subscriber level user.
What result now?

“If I activate it and set a field (e.g. birthdate) to “users only” – nothing happens. There are also no settings for the users in the frontend of buddypress.”

If you set it to “users only” in Admin, you’re not giving your user the choice, and that’s why there is no selector in the front end. The user will only get the selector if you choose “let user decide”.

@philippmuenchen – it works fine. I’m guessing you’re trying to test it while you’re logged in as Admin? The privacy controls don’t apply to Admin. Admin can see everything. Log in as a regular user and then test.

Age calculation: http://code.hyperspatial.com/all-code/buddypress-code/buddypress-age/

@noizeburger – it works for all fieldgroups, not just Base.

@Symm2112, thanks a lot for your ’99’ status trick – it most definitely hides the user from everything in BP, just what is was looking for.

There are exclude page plugins for this but the next version of BP includes custom drop down menus that you can adjust via admin.

@acaps2007

I think I’ve find an easy way to provide the effect you mentioned. It’s rather a css trick than a php-code way. Below is what I’ve find during this process:

First, I find the function bp_adminbar_notifications_menu() in bp-core-adminbar.php, but it only works when adminbar is enable, and it simply lists out all notifications rather than the “mouse-over” effect we want. It seems admin-bar.js is also required, which is totally beyond me.

So I realized that since it already requires adminbar to be enable in the first place, why are we bothering to duplicate this item, especially in so complex a way?

We just need to hide all other items in adminbar, and re-position the notification menu.

So finally I come up with this:

/** Play with admin-bar to grab notification menu */

#wp-admin-bar {
position: absolute;
}

#wp-admin-bar .padder {
background: none;
}

#wp-admin-bar .padder #admin-bar-logo, #wp-admin-bar .padder ul #bp-adminbar-account-menu, #wp-admin-bar .padder ul #bp-adminbar-blogs-menu, #wp-admin-bar .padder ul #bp-adminbar-thisblog-menu, #wp-admin-bar .padder ul #bp-adminbar-authors-menu, #wp-admin-bar .padder ul #bp-adminbar-visitrandom-menu {
display: none;
}

Now we have notification menu there, and it’s no longer a “always-in-the-front” item. What remains to be done is further defining the style of this little baby, its position, background color, font color, etc.

Hope this would do some help.

FYI: I put a more generic posting here (https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-to-hide-content-related-to-members-who-are-registered-but-not-activated/#post-85519) if the admins think this is too off-topic
