WordCamp Seattle 2011

I’m attending WordCamp Seattle 2011 on Saturday, April 16, 2011. In fact, I’m so excited about it that I’m one of the organizers making it possible.

WordCamp Seattle is a one-day conference about WordPress – the world’s most popular content management system, blogging platform, and website creation tool.

Many great speakers are going to be at the event including best-selling author and speaker Scott Berkun, WordPress developer Andrew Nacin, and CrowdFavorite founder Alex King.  Topics include an overview of WordPress, using WordPress, theme creation, plugin development, using WordPress to run your business, blogging, marketing, and SEO.

Regular tickets are $30, student tickets are $25.

Hide the WordPress Admin Bar in WordPress 3.1

The quick answer:
<?php show_admin_bar(false); ?>

All the Info:
WordPress 3.1 has been released.  WPCandy tells you what’s new and exciting.

One of the features is a new admin bar that sits at the top of the page and provides logged in admins quick access to their profile, adding a new post or page, comments, widgets, and menus.  This is a great new feature — most of the time — but sometimes it will break on sites with incompatible themes.

How do you turn off the WordPress Admin bar?

The easiest way is to update the functions.php file for your theme and include the following function call.

Add to functions.php:
<?php show_admin_bar(false); ?>

View documentation for show_admin_bar() or the show_admin_bar filter.
