Description
When the site is set to allow new accounts by invitation only, the Create new account tab shows up if a user clicks on the Request a New Password link.
It would be nice to remove the Create a new account tab unless they hit the page directly. It's kind of confusing to some folks and I'd rather not waste my time on this kind of support. ;)
I don't know how possible this actually is (I'll look into it and submit a patch if I can), but we may be resorting to just using CSS to hide it that way if nothing else.

Hi Andrew,
the problem is that the menu entry is generated in the user.module whenever variable_get('user_register') returns not 0 (aka whenever User settings->Public registrations is not set to "Only site administrators..."). There is no way around that without patching the user.module. So i guess the invite.module cannot solve your issue.
However you could add the following lines to your template.php file(s):
function phptemplate_menu_item_link($item, $link_item) {if ($item['title'] == t('Create new account') && $item['path'] == 'user/register') return;
return l($item['title'], $link_item['path'], !empty($item['description']) ? array('title' => $item['description']) : array(), isset($item['query']) ? $item['query'] : NULL);
}
This prevents the "Create new account" menu item from being rendered.

Added knseibert's snippet to the (slightly outdated *ahem*) README.txt.
