Better Admin Bar gives you and your clients a better way to get around WordPress. Replace the default admin bar with a clean quick access panel that floats on your website, or keep the admin bar and make it less in the way: auto-hide it, remove the 32px gap or hide it for specific user roles.

Set everything up under Settings Better Admin Bar.

Why choose Better Admin Bar?

🚀 Quick access panel

A small floating button on your website. Click it and the key areas of your site are one click away: the dashboard, the customizer, a new page or post, and an “Edit” button for the page you’re looking at. Drag it to any edge of the screen, it remembers where you left it.

🧩 Drag & drop widgets

Choose the widgets of the panel with drag & drop, put them in any order, give them your own names and icons, and open them in a new tab if you like.

🎨 Your colors

Change the colors of the panel and see the result right away in the live preview on the settings page.

👻 Auto-hide the admin bar

The admin bar slides out of view and comes back when you move your mouse to the top of the screen. Set the delay and the animation speed.

👥 Hide the admin bar per user role

Remove the admin bar for all users or only for subscribers, customers or any other user role.

🛠️ Admin bar fixes

Remove the 32px gap the admin bar adds to your website, stop menu items from breaking into a second line, hide the admin bar on small screens and change its opacity.

📦 Export & import

Move your settings to another website with a .json file.
