Admin toolbar shows up when not logged in

    I’m running into a Major trouble.

    Today I found out that when visiting a specific URL on my website, the admin toolbar shows up. Also for people who are not logged in. It appears that the visitor is logged in, but that’s not true. All the links in the toolbar go to a 404 page. However, important information is being shown, like how many plugins need an update and even my login name.

    Is anyone familiar with this?

    Since it is a corporate website, I need a fix as soon as possible. (due to security reasons I won’t post the exact url in public)

    Hopefully anyone can help me.

    Thanks, Stefan

    have you checked the settings under Users -> All users -> your user(admin)->Toolbar option? it its checked it shows the toolbar for all login users.

    the other solution is check the html code from the page where its showing. May be its included in design part for pages.

    It wasn’t the settings, since the toolbar showed up for everyone. Even when not logged in.

    I’ve found that the W3 Total Cache plugin caused this. I tried removing the toolbar with CSS and noticed the CSS file generating the styling for the toolbar was in a cache folder, made by the plugin. I removed all the cache and the toolbar is now gone.
