Disable Authentication and Account Creation

Hi there.

Building a PUBLIC tutorial site, and would like to

1) prevent all visitors from registering,

2) allow all visitors to view course content, and

3) completely disable the creation of accounts by visitors.

Have been reading all day, and trying a variety of settings. Time to ask you experienced folks what to do.

What should I do? wink

Many Thanks!

Go to Administration >> Users >> Manage authentication and disable all the authentication plugins except 'Manual accounts' and 'No login' (these two cannot be disabled).

Next go to Administration >> Users >> Permissions >> User Policies and enable 'Auto-login guests'.

Finally set every course (inside each course settings) to be available to guest users, with 'Guest access' set to 'Allow guests without a key'.

That should do it smile

Saludos. Iñaki.
