I only want users that I have added to WP to access the forum.

So can I disable registering new users and also remove info-banners like the attached one and other text links?

Thanks 🙂

Hi @okeiwebbureau,

Please navigate to the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Features admin page find and disable the "Enable User Registration". If this option is disabled the default WordPress User Registration form will still be available. But wpForo Register Menu and Register Page will be hidden.

More info here: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/wpforo-settings/features/#user-registration

remove info-banners like the attached one and other text links?

Please try the following CSS code:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-please-login {
  display: none;
}

The CSS code should be added in the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles admin page "Custom CSS Code" textarea.

In any case please don't forget to delete all aches and press CTRL+F5(twice) on the frontend before checking.

Also, please note, that wpForo members are based on the WordPress user system. So the users are the same.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.
