# Bug with Force Hiding Adminbar?

 * I think there may be an issue with the “Force hiding adminbar in frontend?” option
   under Roles. If set to Yes, it works fine, it forces the admin menu bar to be
   hidden when viewing the front end site.
 * But if set to No, it then forces the admin menu bar to be shown always, even 
   if the user themselves set the option in their profile page to not show it or
   if we have “show_admin_bar(false)” set in functions.php. When set to No, I don’t
   think it override the user preferences, right? Or am I misunderstanding this 
   option?

 * Hi [@pbarmak](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pbarmak/),
 * Ultimate member doesn’t have these settings on the user profile page, can you
   please clarify what options are you referring to?
    Please attach screenshots 
   if possible.

 * I go to wp-admin -> Ultimate Member -> User Roles
 * Then I click on one of the roles (I pick Admin), and in the Edit User Role screen,
   the second option from the top is “Force hiding adminbar in frontend?”
 * Here is a screenshot, with the option turned on:

 * Hi [@pbarmak](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pbarmak/),
 * Can you please try to do a conflict test to rule out theme/plugin conflicts and
   see if this issue goes away.
    Here is the [doc on how to do a conflict test](http://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/96-how-to-do-a-plugin-theme-conflict-test)
   if you are not sure. Please also check whether you have any caching plugins installed
   or server side caching active on your site and try to exclude Ultimate member
   pages from the cache.
 * Regards.
