kjmancusi Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Site URL: https://apple-octagon-469r.squarespace.com/account/login I am looking to set up my Member Area to only allow my members to login as i'm no longer interested in enrolling more members. I have tried to use custom css to hide the iframe footer (or at the very least the 'Create account' `a` tag), but I can't remove it To no avail, this is what I tried to use in custom css: #user-account-login-root > div > div > footer { display: none; } Any idea why this doesn't work? Anyone have a good workaround? sigmundelias 1 Link to comment

kjmancusi Posted December 29, 2021 Author Share Posted December 29, 2021 Ugh 😞 This is incredibly unfortunate since we have content for our members, but we do not want people to have the ability to sign up freely. I'm definitely all ears for any kind of workaround possibility Link to comment
sigmundelias Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Same here. Is there really no workaround here? I need to either 1) hide the "create account"-option, or 2) manually approve new members. The member area will have information about a strictly invite-only event. Link to comment

We need Squarespace to act. As Michael explains, this cannot prevent users from joining your Member Area because it isn’t preventing the account creation process from working - it is simply hiding the link from those who don’t know how to find it. Anyone could still join your Member Area, so you’ll want to ensure that you aren’t sharing anything private or valuable. kjmancusi 1 About: SQSP User for 17 yrs. Circle Leader since 2017.

sigmundelias Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Agreed - not secure and not ideal. webbroi 1 Link to comment
