***I need help hiding the option to create account on members pages. LOGIN only needed.

I am currently building a Membership Site. We want to regulate access to the account and eliminate the option to Create an Account and only have the option to sign in only. Does anyone have a solution for this problem or some code that can get rid of all options to create an account on the site and have it as strictly a login option?

I'd love to tell you better news, but this isn't currently possible. I've been advocating for this feature since Member Areas launched in November 2020. It's the number one issue on my list of member area limitations because it prevents Member Areas being used for so many client use cases, for example where the content contains personal details or 'valuable' information. 

You can create the illusion of security - you may read other posts that tell you it is possible to prevent unwanted signups by adding some code or by password protecting the join page - but these aren't really solutions, they are just tricks to try to hide the flaw. However, it will still exist. To use an analogy, these suggestions are the equivalent of locking your front door but leaving the key under the doormat. It may look secure, but only until someone looks under the mat.

As I mentioned in my limitations post, if you find this deal breaking, please log a support ticket with Squarespace to ask for this feature so that they understand how many potential users are affected. I'd love this to be fixed.
