I have a private page. The password mechanism works well. Thank you.
But I do not want people to be able to register. I want to restrict access to members who already have a username and password. How do I hide the register button please?

Hello Duncan,
Unfortunately the Register button cannot be hidden but they wont be registered automatically. You have to set up a page where they have to be reidrected if the choose to register and in this page you need to add a form that they need to fill up to register which will be first sent to you and you need to abilitate them.
Please feel free to write back if you need more information.

Thanks Claudio. That is the work round I have adopted. If they click the register button they go to a page that says they cannot register. The private pages are only available to members of our consortium and I do not want casual visitors being able even to apply for registration. I have also put the log in link on a discrete osition on the site - most people will not see it.
It is not completely satisfactory as it may anoy some casual visitors; but it does the job. Perhaps you could put it on your wish list?
