I had to uninstall this plugin. After a recent update – I’m not sure when – the admin bar appeared for all users on the front end, whether they were logged in or not. Apparently, the update requires you to opt out of that functionality. That is literally the opposite of what the plugin was supposed to do. Since I’m more or less always logged in to the site, I didn’t realize the admin bar was appearing on the front end for over a week.

When activated the admin panel is still accessible by typing /wp-admin/ after the site address! How to disable real access?
