Your statement is not correct! Please don’t post incorrect answers. You don’t have to be logged in to “Admin” for the “Navigate to Admin” banner appears. And why do we have to go to “Private Mode” or incognito mode to see our untainted website. What give Shopify the right to display what they want on my website? I’m logged out of the Shopify Admin at the moment and so is the store manager. AND I am still seeing the “Navigate to Admin” banner at the bottom of my screen.
Topic summary
A Shopify store owner noticed a “Navigate to Admin” bar appearing at the bottom of their website and sought help removing it.
Initial Resolution:
- One user explained the bar is only visible to logged-in admins, not customers
- Suggested testing in incognito/private browsing mode to confirm customers don’t see it
- Original poster initially accepted this solution
Ongoing Dispute:
- Multiple users challenged this explanation, reporting the bar appears even when logged out of admin
- Users expressed frustration about needing incognito mode as a workaround
- One user raised accessibility concerns, noting the bar obscures screen content and cannot be closed
Technical Workaround:
- A CSS solution was shared: adding
#admin-bar-iframe {display: none;}to the theme’s CSS - One user identified the specific HTML div element responsible but didn’t specify which theme file contains it
Status: The discussion reveals conflicting experiences about when the admin bar appears, with the CSS workaround being the only concrete removal method offered.
