How to override the registration/login page? When people type www.enlaceslatinos.net they just land there in the site.

Thank you

Do you mean removing the login form? you can configure the user login block by going to Administer > Site Building > Blocks.

And also you can call the user login block anywhere, the magic code is drupal_get_form('user_login_block')

hope this help

Thank you for your replies. I tried everything. Did not work. I just want to remove the actual login form. I want that when people type www.enlaceslatinos.net in their search bar of their browsers they go to the front page of the site where all the content is. In others words, I want no login form for people when going to my site.

do you mean you want to add some fields to those forms ? if you want to do it you must use Profile module and modify the mentioned forms

Removing the login form steps:
1. Go to Administer
2. Go to Site Building
3. Go to Blocks
4. Look for "User Login" block
5. In the region selection, select < none >. and the user login block will go automatically in the disabled block.

Another way just append this without double quotes "admin/build/block" to your URL and make sure you are login as administrator. For example www.example.com/admin/build/block.

If you want to hide the login form just in the front page just go to block configuration and select "Show on every page except the listed pages" and in the textarea just type < front > without space.

Thank you. I tried your ideas and did not work. If I disable the login form then you will see a little form with not login in it and then you can not see my content. I think I have 2 front pages. If you go to www.enlaceslatinos.net you have to create an account. Then you will look to your email where you will receive a password. Then you go back to that link and enter your username and the password and then you will see the site content. (like facebook or whatever sites you need to login the first time). What I want to do is to eliminate those steps. Just that the site home is there and nobody needs to login. Like Drupal site that nobody needs to login to see and read content but just they can create an account to participate in others aspects of your site. Thank you very much for your replies.

What version of drupal you are using?

If drupal 7 go to Structure > Blocks

or you can just append this admin/structure/block, www.example.com/admin/structure/block
