SIGN UP button

[Bitlab Media Group]

Can I redirect the signup button to one of my custom pages, which also has links to the register form?

Or hide it?

thanks

Hi there thanks. I don't want to change the look of the link on rollover.

I want it, to go to a custom page I made, not the system register.

Or just remove the SIGN UP button. It is making things confusing with my setup.

Thanks for any help

He has just given you an example of how you can change the URL so you can have it pointing to own register page. 🙂

Change that URL to the one you want people to go too.

i did. I changed it to my registration.html, took off the /register/ as was.

on rollover i see the url, has changed to mine.

but the button is still loading a pop up for sign up..

i want to change the REAL url..

I see what you mean. You will probably have to edit the userBar templete and change the code for this

Look for the following around line 128

		<li id='elSignInLink'>
			<a href='{url="app=core&module=system&controller=login" seoTemplate="login"}' data-ipsMenu-closeOnClick="false" data-ipsMenu id='elUserSignIn'>
				{lang="sign_in"} &nbsp;<i class='fa fa-caret-down'></i>
			</a>
			{template="loginPopup" app="core" group="global" params="new \IPS\Login( \IPS\Http\Url::internal( 'app=core&module=system&controller=login', 'front', 'login' ) )"}
		</li>

and change it too:

		<li id='elSignInLink'>
			<a href='{url="app=core&module=system&controller=login" seoTemplate="login"}'>
				{lang="sign_in"} &nbsp;<i class='fa fa-caret-down'></i>
			</a>
		</li>

That should redirect you to your new page without the pop-up.

Or you could create a plugin to do this in a more clean way.

Disclaimer... I haven't properly tested this 🙂

Hum, ya I was already in the userBar changing things before i posted this. but didn't get it to work.

i even deleted all the code from userBar and the button was still there..

ok thanks for your notes. ill try again with your suggestion.

Will send you a PM with a plugin, so you don't have to edit the code. 🙂

None of the above is necessary.

Go to AdminCP > System > Settings > Login & Registration > "Registration" tab

Change "Allow new registrations?" to "Redirect to an external site" and supply the URL you want to direct users to. Done.
