How to disable the self registration link in the Deposit Module's login screen

Description

How do I disable the self registration link in the Deposit Module's login screen?

Resolution

1. v5.2 or higher with Local Authentication:

a. Login to the Administrative module and go to: Home > General > General Parameters > Module: authentication

b. Change the "deposit_self_registration" parameter to 'false'

c. Click "Update" to save.

d. Logout of Rosetta Management

e. Clear your browser's cache

f. Connect to the Deposit module's login screen (e.g. http://<your_dns_name>:1801/deposit) to confirm that the registration link is gone.

2. v5.1 or lower with External Authentication (e.g. SAML, LDAP, etc.):

a. Connect to the Rosetta application server(s) via ssh and navigate to: /exlibris/dps/d4_1/pds/html_form/calling_system-dep/login 

b. Comment out the following lines:

     <!-- <div class="register">
                                <ul class="clearfix">
                                        <li class="clearfix">
                                                <label class="registerMessage" for="username">I am new and want to register:</label>
                                                <div class="registerButton">
                                                        <a class="registerText" target="_parent" href="http://il-dps01.corp.exlibrisgroup.com:1801/deposit/external/register.do?operation=Details" title="">Register</a>
                                                </div>
                                        </li>
                                </ul>
                        </div>  -->

or

<!-- <ul class="newRegister clearfix">
<li><span>I am new and want to register:</span> <span class="buttonLink alignRight"><a  target="_parent" href="http://il-dtldev08c.corp.exlibrisgroup.com:1801/deposit/external/register.do?operation=Details" title="">Register</a></span></li>
                        </ul> -->

c. Save your changes.

d. Clear your browser's cache

e. Connect to the Deposit module's login screen (e.g. http://<your_dns_name>:1801/deposit) to confirm that the registration link is gone.

NOTE: upgrading to v5.2 or higher won't overwrite these changes.
