How do you disable the automatic Drupal registration?
voipfc - March 6, 2004 - 22:11
I have just installed Drupal but because I it is a school website being opened up to all my classmates but I don't want it register them to Drupal.
It has fairly liberal access rights but I would like to leave out the Drupal registration bit until I can get the time to study Drupal properly, to avoid any antisocial hacking.
Where can I fix that option?
its easy actually :)
but it's kinda backwards, my instinct was
administer > accounts > permissions
but it turned out to be
administer > configuration > modules > user
which also makes sense, since you are managing the user module... maybe there should be a link in permissions just for us folks that are afraid of documentation :)
anyway, once yer in
admin > configuration > modules > user
theres a drop down menu that you can select admin approval or admin only for account creation ;)
This seems to have changed
This seems to have changed locations since March 2004. 4 years of Drupal will do that. Anyone know where this feature is changed now? I can't seem to dig it up.
Thanks!
you can find the option
you can find the option under admin/user/settings (Public registrations)
In drupal 6
administrator>>user management>>user settings>>
then set to >>Only site administrators can create new user accounts.
voila.. you're done. :)
thanks :-)
