disable the registration page

    The documentation with WP Members suggests that I can hide the registration link which you can see in the sidebar. I have a registration page, but I only want people that have performed an application form submission to reach it. I don’t want anyone jumping directly to the registration form. The problem I am seeing right now is I have a bunch of illegitimate users trying to sign up to the site. It is easy to detect they are not real, but it would be much better if the register link was not visible in the sidebar. Then they are less likely to locate and fill in the form.

    Have I misunderstood the following: https://rocketgeek.com/plugins/wp-members/docs/registration/turn-off-registration/ that is what I am trying to do. I think I have turned it off but a 3rd party short circuiting the process can jump straight to the registration form.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Sound more like what you want/need to do is just remove the link to register in the login form. That link is generated by the Register Page location in the plugin’s main options tab. Unset that from having a value and that will remove the register link from the login form.
