Hiya,
I apologize if this is the wrong section but I have a quick inquiry for you all. Is there a bbpress plugin that creates a notifications widget.

So basically say a standard user is sent a private message from another user but I’ve removed my admin bar…. is there an existing plugin to create a widget that would display notifications which I could place on my page to show that private message is waiting to be read in a similar way to the admin bar?

Alternatively how would one go about editing the admin bar to remove the content to the left like the wordpress logo or “visit site” / dashboard tachometer icon?

Thanks in advance to all who respond!

Sorry for double posting but I figured the following would be beneficial for anyone who might view this as well.

I decided to go the latter route and used this code:

function annointed_admin_bar_remove() {
        global $wp_admin_bar,        
        $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('wp-logo');          // Remove the WP Logo Menu
        $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('site-name');        // Remove the site name menu
        $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('view-site');        // Remove the view site link

}

add_action('wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'annointed_admin_bar_remove');
