Hide admin bar to subscriber role?

Hello!

Is there a way to hide the admin from the users with subscriber role, but keep ir working for all other roles? On our site subscribers only have access to create a very simple profile, so i’d like to hide the admin bar for them since it only shows one link in it.

Thanks

Try putting something like this in /plugins/bp-custom.php:
```
<?php

if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {

$user_roles = wp_get_current_user();

$user_roles = $user_roles->roles;



if ( empty( $user_roles ) || in_array( 'subscriber', $user_roles ) )

define( 'BP_DISABLE_ADMIN_BAR', true );

}

?>
```

Thanks!

I tried this and it gives me this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_user_logged_in() in /plugins/bp-custom.php on line 2

Any other suggestions?

is_user_logged_in() is present in both WP and WPMU. Odd. What versions of WordPress/WordPress MU are you using?

I’m using WPMU 2.9.2 and the latest version of Buddypress. I guess i’ll try using it in a fresh install, maybe someone on our staff edited something they shouldn’t and it’s causing this error…

Thanks

Same error on fresh install… Maybe i should just leave it there? or create a different bar that will load only for authors?
