Remove Profile Dropdown in Admin Bar

Simple plugin to hide the annoying profile dropdown that opens when you accidentally hover the "Howdy" item in the admin bar. A plain Log Out link is added in its place. Since version 1.1.0 the plugin can also get the whole admin bar out of your way on the front end of your site:

• Click the small arrow at the far right of the admin bar to remove the bar completely, including the space it reserves at the top of the page.
• While the bar is hidden, hover the top-right corner of the window and a small arrow button appears. Click it to bring the admin bar back.
• Your choice is remembered per browser, and applied before the page is painted, so there is no flash of the bar on the next page load.
• The admin-bar body class is removed while the bar is hidden, so theme styles that offset sticky headers for the admin bar no longer apply.

The hide/show feature only affects the front end. The WordPress dashboard is left untouched.

Simply search for the plugin name via the Plugins -> Add New dialog and click install, or download and extract the plugin, and copy the plugin folder into your wp-content/plugins directory and activate.
