SimpleBar is a free, open-source WordPress plugin for customising the admin bar without bloat. Reorder items with drag & drop, hide links, change colours, add custom URLs, and tailor everything per user role. Built after 15 years of WordPress work to solve one small but persistent annoyance—cleaning up the admin bar properly, simply, and transparently.

SimpleBar is my first ever WordPress plugin after ~15 years of building sites for clients, products, and myself. The admin bar always annoyed me — too cluttered, too inconsistent across roles, and existing solutions felt overpowered or opaque. I wanted something lightweight, visual, and understandable at a glance. I built this primarily for my own workflows, then realised others might appreciate a clean, no-upsell, open-source approach to the same problem. It’s completely free and open-source. Feedback, ideas, and contributions very welcome.
