auth.settings.actions_disabled.append('register')

[Andrea Fae']

Sometimes problems arises. I need to eliminate "sign up" menu item from LOGIN but nevertheless I inserted this line

auth.settings.actions_disabled.append('register')

or this

auth.settings.actions_disabled = ['register']

in the db.py I can see the item in the menu, and when I click I see "404 NOT FOUND" page.

One time only this line could delete this menu item.

Do I forgot anything?

Thanks

What about removing this: 

<a class="dropdown-item" href="{{=URL('default','user/register')}}">{{=T('Sign up')}}</a>

from layout.html?

That used to be done automatically when registration was disabled. It made the layout unnecessarily complex. Any action could be disabled and that;s a lot of if statements.

Do you mean that, like in the other versions, it shoud be enogh only to write auth.settings.actions_disabled.append('register') and nothing more?

I see "password smarrita" in the menu and clicking it I see the same error 404 NOT FOUND and it points to "request_password" controller. Why if in the user function is written     http://..../[app]/default/user/retrieve_password ?

In layout.html there is an error...

wrong

              <!-- a class="dropdown-item" href="{{=URL('default','user/request_password')}}">{{=T('Lost Password')}}</a -->

right

              <a class="dropdown-item" href="{{=URL('default','user/retrieve_password')}}">{{=T('Lost Password')}}</a>

I am working on an app where it is not open for self registration.  I was getting the same error when I tried customising the Welcome app that was cloned.

I then retrieved the custom_Auth app from the examples, and uploaded that as my base and it works correctly just with

## configure auth policy
auth.settings.actions_disabled = ['register']

in the db.py file

The menu choice is gone.

I am still very new to Web2py so have no idea why one works and the other didn't - hope this helps.
