Why is this plugin so difficult?

    I’ve used this – it works.. for awhile, and now.. the ‘login’ on the bar appears on the front of my site.. I cannot make it go away..

    It disappears when a person with a ‘role’ set logs in.. but hey.. seems to NOT work when someone with NO ROLE visits the site.

    I’m not a programmer for website software.. but it seems to me that this plugin is horribly more complicated than it needs to be..

    1. NOBODY SEES the BARS UNLESS they have a ROLE set by the Admin..
    Then, there’s a little box for a ROLE to be typed in the back end..
    2. The bar is or is not there before log-in as set by the admin

    3. The bar vanishes or doesn’t vanish based on the ROLE set..

    DONE!

    Right now all this squirming and rigging of the code is to PREVENT someone from seeing the BAR.. Why not REVERSE it an only ALLOW the bar to be seen if the ROLE matches what the Admin Sets?!
