Hello - we are building a community site for members and will be sending the registration link directly to those individuals. How do I remove the registration link from public access but still maintain a page I can send people? 

And I notice on the registration page now I get a message about "Not Secure" How can I create a secure and private registration page?

Thank you, Toby

No Thoughts? I am willing to pay for a bit of tech support.

Hi TobyGelston,

wpForo is the same WordPress registration page with different design and URL. WordPress/wpForo Registration page can be secured using reCATCHA or other antispam solutions. You can remove wpForo registration page from menu in Dashboard > Appearance > Menus admin page. Just select wpForo Navigation menu and manage menu items. More info in wpForo Documentation:

https://wpforo.com/docs/root/getting-started/forum-menu/

Once the registration page is removed you can send your forum registration page URL, example:

http:// example.com /community/?wpforo=signup

The red part is your forum root. By default it's /community/

@robert I had the same request (to remove the registration page - make it hidden). The above works but the link still shows up at the bottom of the login form and takes people to the sign-up page. Is there a way to either re-direct that link or remove it from the log-in form? Thanks.

@virtualvirginia,

Navigate to wpForo > Settings > Login & Registration and check Custom Authorization URLs option.
