hiding admin bar function

  • after we updated the shop from 1.6 to 2.2.8 admin bar disappeared for non-admins on our site. After checking php files of the plugin, I figured it out how to fix it – I changed the value of woocommerce_lock_down_admin to no in wp_options table in our database.

    The worst thing is that woocommerce_lock_down_admin option is set randomly. at least in our case. on our beta site when we updated, it was set to no, so we thought everything is fine.

    Now I want to know where in back office this option can be set? I can’t see it in /wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-settings. After this case I want to compare other woocommerce options on our beta and production site to catch potential differences.

    thanks in advance for your answer

  • Having exactly the same problem, as we′re using Buddypress the bar is kind of necessary. Don′t want to go in to the database and change without understanding the reason why the bar is disbled.

    Thanks //

    Also using 2.2.8 but couldn′t find woocommerce_lock_down_admin in the wp_options table

    try:

    SELECT *
FROM <code>wp_options</code>
WHERE <code>option_name</code> LIKE 'woocommerce_lock_down_admin'

    maybe one of your security plugins changed the prefix in the names your database table from wp_ to other random one – then you need to look for the table with the random beginning ??

    Thanks, still didn′t find it

    I been in the code and changed the filters for this so now I have an admin bar again. This will be removed in the next update so it′s not a good way. I really would like to now the reason for this function.
