Remove Sign In to Edit this Site / "Public" registration form.

Permalink 1 user found helpful
Is there a way to delete/remove the text in the footer "Sign In to Edit this Site" and the registration form? Because not everybody on this planet has to register and I want to know who registers. I want to Register someone, if he and I wants to.
Thank you in advance for any responses/solutions.

if you create our own theme (I guess you'll like most people) you'll find a file called footer.php which contains that stuff.

It's just there to give you a hint where to login is.. Try to build a website and you'll quickly understand how a theme works and how you can customize pretty much everything you want.

I'm more worried about the registration page. I already found the login page, but i need it to login to the admin panel.
Can I delete the registration page, without deleting the registration form of the admin panel?
because i found out by writing /register back at the index page. Anyone can register without a link and I want really want this gone, but I do not know how it will affect the registration/add user panel in the admin section.

I like the theme i have now (default), but when everything is uploaded, inserted, etc. I will look into the OO PHP to make my own theme. I'm really a newbie, but at least I got my Zend books to learn it :D.

So you could probably go to dashboard, sitemap, click show system pages, then go to register and click permissions to where only administrators can view the page. This should block people from seeing the page unless they are registered or administrators.

The build in dev has enable user registration selector and has checks there to check the value before rendering the register page, so for now what I posted should work.

even if c5 uses a lot of OOP, you don't need it to build a theme. You can create a theme with copy & paste!

I have website that I use for informational purposes. I don't want that (sign in to edit) in the footer for my default page but I want everyone to be able to view my page. So my question is...how do I remove "sign in to edit" from the footer without making the page non visible to the public.
