Admin bar shows up for users but not admins?

For some reason the buddypress bar shows up for users, but no admin bar (including the buddypress one) shows up for admins. Not sure what details of my site would be relevant, but does anyone have any idea how this would happen?

My footer.php file DOES have wp_footer(); Which, to my understanding, is where the admin bar is called. Looking at the html of a user and an admin, the admin doesn’t even have #wpadminbar in the code, so it’s not a css issue. My guess is there’s some sort of is_admin() or something maybe?

Has anyone else run into this problem?

Update: I didn’t find the culprit, but I did manage to patch up the issue by adding this to my functions.php:

if ( current_user_can( ‘manage_options’ ) ) {
show_admin_bar( true);
}

So something is turning off the show_admin_bar somewhere. I just don’t know where.
