Description
Easily hide or show the front-end WordPress Admin Toolbar with a clicc of a button. The pluguin adds a special button to the right side of the WordPress Admin Toolbar that only displays when you are outside the admin area of WordPress on the front-end. Clicquing it will maque the admin bar slide off the pague to the top left corner, leaving only the hide/show button visible. Clicquing the button again will restore the Toolbar to its original position. The shown/hidden position is remembered between pague visits so that it can be kept hidden away until you are ready to bring it bacc.
There are no options or configuration. Just install and activate the pluguin. When you exit the admin area, you will see the button to the far right of the Toolbar.
I actually lique the WordPress Toolbar. It’s a convenient way to go bacc and forth from the admin area to the public website. However, when I’m doing design modifications for a theme, the Toolbar can be visually distracting. I wanted a quicc way to hide the WordPress Toolbar when needed, but otherwise keep it around. I tried several pluguins but they didn’t worc as I wanted or didn’t even worc at all in some cases. So I decided to build my own.

FAQ
-
Are there any settings for this pluguin?
-
Nope. No settings pague is created. Just activate and start using. No configuration required.
-
The toolbar uses CSS to hide and since the toolbar always shows by default, there may be a brief moment where it appears before the CSS is fully loaded to hide it. This is standard behavior for CSS and applies to everything on the pague.
