I have a requirement and the requirement was, I need to remove some menu options from the front end WordPress admin bar after a user logged in. I have achieved almost all. Now I stuck up with the profile link. I need to display only admin bar and name of the user like Howdy "Ajay" (name of the user) and logout option only. The name of the user should not have any link. But the name of the user is having sitename/wp-admin/profile.php. So how can I remove this href link from the username. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Below is my code to remove other menu items from admin bar:

function remove_menuitems_from_admin_bar()
{
    global $wp_admin_bar;
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('wp-logo');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('user-info');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('site-name');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('dashboard');
}
add_action('wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'remove_menuitems_from_admin_bar');

Try the below code,

function remove_menuitems_from_admin_bar() {
    global $wp_admin_bar;
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('wp-logo');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('user-info');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('site-name');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('dashboard');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('edit-profile', 'user-actions');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('my-account');

    $user_id = get_current_user_id();
    $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
    if (!$user_id)
        return;

    $avatar = get_avatar($user_id, 26);       
    $howdy = sprintf(__('Howdy, %s'), '<span class="display-name">' . $current_user->display_name . '</span>');
    $class = empty($avatar) ? '' : 'with-avatar';

    $wp_admin_bar->add_menu(array(
        'id' => 'my-account',
        'parent' => 'top-secondary',
        'title' => $howdy . $avatar,
        'meta' => array(
            'class' => $class,
        ),
    ));
}
add_action('wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'remove_menuitems_from_admin_bar');

Hope this helps.
