Posted on Jun 14, 2010 (last modified May 8, 2021)
The Login form on the login page comes from a portlet. The sign-up link that appears on the login page comes from this portlet. In many cases, anonymous access to the portal is not given or the sign-up capability is not desired. Here’s how to remove the sign-up link from the portlet (it is a configurable parameter):
- In Portal Admin, navigate to Portlets (under Portlet Management).
Find the “Login” portlet and click on the wrench icon (Configure portlet). - One of the parameters on the portlet is “ShowSignupLink”, which can be given the value “yes” or “no”.
- Simply change the value as appropriate and commit the changes by pressing what ever logical “OK” or “Apply” buttons that follow.
