Hello Dandy,

You can hide the Admin Bar Menu by following ways.

1. By putting the following code in your current theme’s style.css file.

#wp-admin-bar-my-account-xprofile-edit,
#wp-admin-bar-my-account-xprofile-change-cover-image {
	display:none !important;
}

2. By putting the following code in your bp-custom.php file

function buddydev_remove_unwanted_menu() {

    global $wp_admin_bar;

    // place the node id you want to hide
    $node_ids = array(
        'my-account-xprofile-edit',
        'my-account-xprofile-change-avatar',
        'my-account-xprofile-change-cover-image'
    );

    foreach( $node_ids as $id ) {
        $wp_admin_bar->remove_node( $id );
    }

}
add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'buddydev_remove_unwanted_menu' );

Please let me know know if It is works for you or not.

Thank You
Ravi

Hi Dandy,

Yes, it can be done to hide and show these items based on user role or capabilities. Please take a look the following url for WordPress User role and capability.

https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities

function buddydev_remove_unwanted_menu() {

    global $wp_admin_bar;
	
	/**
	 * 
	 *  either you can pass the capability or the user role like
	 *  current_user_can('edit_posts') with user capability
	 *  current_user_can('author') with user role
	 * 
	**/
	
	if ( current_user_can('edit_posts') ) { 
		// place the node id you want to hide
		$node_ids = array(
			'my-account-xprofile-edit',
			'my-account-xprofile-change-avatar',
			'my-account-xprofile-change-cover-image'
		);

		foreach( $node_ids as $id ) {
			$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( $id );
		}
	}
	
}
add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'buddydev_remove_unwanted_menu' );

Please let me know if it works for you or not.

Thank You

Hi Dandy,

Can You please share the code block that you are using?. I have tested this code on my local server and It is working for me.

Thank You
Ravi

Hi Dandy,

There is problem with your code ‘current_user_can’ is a WordPress function and works only with WordPress Roles and Capabilities. Please try the following code

function buddydev_remove_unwanted_menu() {

	if( ! is_user_logged_in() || ! function_exists( 'buddypress' ) ) {
		return;
	}

	global $wp_admin_bar;

	$is_teacher = bp_has_member_type( bp_loggedin_user_id(), 'teacher' );
	$is_principal = bp_has_member_type( bp_loggedin_user_id(), 'principal' );

	if ( $is_teacher || $is_principal ) {
		// place the node id you want to hide
		$node_ids = array(
			'my-account-xprofile-edit',
			'my-account-xprofile-change-avatar',
			'my-account-xprofile-change-cover-image'
		);

		foreach( $node_ids as $id ) {
			$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( $id );
		}
	}

}
add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'buddydev_remove_unwanted_menu' );
