### 󠀁[Excellent for WP System Bookmarks](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-for-wp-system-bookmarks/)󠁿

The plugin works flawlessly and, so far, without any glitches. It has a very well
thought out set of features that improves the admin bar. I got it because I needed
a way to create bookmarks in the admin bar to some deeply buried settings. Edit:
As of December 2019, all the custom links disappear at random. No word from the 
developer about this issue.

This plugin broke my website. Automatically logged me out and would not let me access
my website at all. It may just be a matter of updating the plugin. I just want others
to be aware. Luckily, I was able to go in through FTP and delete the files from 
my server to remedy the issue. If you would like me to try the plugin again, after
an update of course, please contact me.

### 󠀁[A good start but it can do better…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-good-start-but-it-can-do-better/)󠁿

I installed and tested this plugin. It does what it says. But in my humble opinion,
it’s missing one key feature to stand out from the crowd. It is now possible to “
Hide Admin Bar for”: 1. Admin page 2. Admins and Users 3. Users only and 4. No one.
The purpose of the last one escapes me. On the other hand, it would be a huge step
in the right direction if it were possible to let the plugin do its work on a per“
user” bases or at least on the base or “role”. It would be immensely powerful and
very usable/useful for anyone making websites that are handed over a client. Or 
has multiple people working on a website in different capacities. A bit like this
plugin which, unfortunately, hasn’t been updated for quite some time now. https://
wordpress.org/plugins/user-admin-simplifier/ Maybe this can be incorporated in your
roadmap.

### 󠀁[A brilliant little plugin – simple but so very useful!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-brilliant-little-plugin-simple-but-so-very-useful/)󠁿

This really is a handy little plugin. All it does is allow you to add shortcuts/
links to the back-end admin top menu bar (plus colour styling and icon options) …
but it’s *exactly* what I’ve been looking for. No fuss, no frills. The developer
is incredibly fast at responding to user requests. What more could you want? Well
done, Alex – you deserve your 5-star rating!
