1: How do block registrations?
Posted by Steve Manning on 10/22/04 12:41 PM
I've searched through the admin options and googled like a demon but I can't find a way to turn off the 'Register' link in the login page.

Other than removing the link, is it possible to turn off registration so that membership is by invitation only?

in oacs-5-1 you can turn off registration with a parameter of acs-authentication, that'll make what you're looking for...

Sorry I forgot to say that its a 5.1 install.

Whats that parameter called becuase I can only see RegisterAuthority in the Main section and a whole heap under Batch Synchronisation?

So it should be out in the next version 5.1.2, or 5.1.3, which should be out shortly.
