Hi.

In my WPFORO settings I am using de option "Show Admin Bar for Usergroups" enabled only for Admin, but the admin bar are visible for all my users. I would like to know if there is any other setting that I have to setup, if this is a bug and if I should use a plugin or code to hide for other groups. Thank you very much.

Please look at my General Settings in the image attached.

To disable the WordPress admin bar for specific user roles, install a plugin like Hide Admin Bar Based on User Roles from your dashboard. After activating the plugin, go to its settings page (Settings > Hide Admin Bar Settings) and select the user roles for which you want to disable the bar. Click Save Changes to apply your settings.
