 * Hey,
 * When a new user registers on my blog, he/she is automatically shown the admin
   bar at the top of the page. Is there any way to change it so that the admin bar
   will not be available by default?
 * Thanks!

 * Quick and easy solution. Many thanks!
 * Honestly I don’t understand why isn’t this part of the settings…
