Woocommerce hides buddybar

[Bob1nz]

Hi
Just playing around with things today and I noticed that when the plugin WooCommerce is activated some of the roles in my wordpress can no longer see their “buddybar” (not sure on the name of it but the bar in the header that has the “how are you joeblogs?”)

But as soon as I deactivate woocommerce the buddybar is visible again?

I have some roles setup with user role editor and am at a loss as to where to go to fix this.

@bob01nz yes, this is an extremely common WooCommerce flaw they most likely refuse to add an option for. Try adding this to your functions.php file:

add_action( 'plugins_loaded', function() 
{
    add_filter( 'woocommerce_disable_admin_bar', '__return_false' );
});

Thanks for the reply.

I added that to my functions.php in my child theme but subscribers still have no buddybar.

ahh got it did some googling with what you posted and just used this

add_filter( 'woocommerce_disable_admin_bar', '__return_false'

Thanks again TJ
