## Description

Simple plugin to hide the annoying profile dropdown that opens when you accidentally
hover the Howdy” item in the admin bar. A plain **Log Out** link is added in its
place.

Since version 1.1.0 the plugin can also get the whole admin bar out of your way 
on the front end of your site:

 * Click the small arrow at the far right of the admin bar to remove the bar completely,
   including the space it reserves at the top of the page.
 * While the bar is hidden, hover the top-right corner of the window and a small
   arrow button appears. Click it to bring the admin bar back.
 * Your choice is remembered per browser, and applied before the page is painted,
   so there is no flash of the bar on the next page load.
 * The `admin-bar` body class is removed while the bar is hidden, so theme styles
   that offset sticky headers for the admin bar no longer apply.

The hide/show feature only affects the front end. The WordPress dashboard is left
untouched.

## Installation

Simply search for the plugin name via the **Plugins -> Add New** dialog and click
install, or download and extract the plugin, and copy the plugin folder into your
wp-content/plugins directory and activate.

## FAQ

### Where is the arrow to hide the admin bar?

On the front end of your site, at the far right end of the admin bar, next to the
Howdy” item.

### How do I get the admin bar back?

Move your mouse to the top-right corner of the browser window. A small round arrow
button fades in. Click it and the bar returns.

### Is the hidden state shared between users or devices?

No. It is stored in your browser (localStorage), so it applies only to that browser
on that device.
