SimpleBar – Admin Bar Customiser

Description

A free plugin that lets you easily customize the admin bar and side menu. Change colours, add your own links, hide elements or use drag and drop to reorder them.

SimpleBar gives you:

  • Colours for Admin Bar (front‑end & admin) and the left Admin Menu. Change text, icon, and background/hover/current item colours.
  • Per‑role controls: hide common core nodes, add custom links with drag & drop order, and optional preferred order of top‑level items.

SimpleBar is free and open-source (FOSS) – you can find the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/lukedunsmoto/simplebar-admin-bar-customizer

Notes

  • Reordering is best‑effort. WordPress and plugins may add nodes after our hook runs.
