Hi,
I want to use ATutor for some school kids but I know what they are like. Is it possible to restrict access to some of the functions unless they have an account? For example, I wouldn't want kids to create their own accounts as I can imagine some of the names they would use!!
Also, if you go in as a guest, you can change the preferences as well.
If you can do restrict access, how do I do it?
Thanks.

You could comment out the registration link, so only you know where to find the registration screen.

I am a complete novice when it comes to PHP and any other programming language. Having looked at the other PHP files I suspect to comment the line out would require me to put a /* at the start of the line - is that correct?
Which file holds the line to comment out- is it login.php?
Thanks

Comment with two slashes for single lines ( // ) or for a block use a slash asterisk at the beginning and end of the block.
/* this is
a block of
code commented
out */
The register link is in include/basic_html/header.php lines 59 to 63
Also, login.php delete line 157 except for the closing paragrph tag:
· <?php echo _AT('no_account'); ?> <a href="registration.php"><?php echo _AT('free_account'); ?></a>

There's also a register link in the language in the password reminder screen. This one will have to be removed by adjusting the associated language through the administrator Language Manager.
variable password_blurb

Worked a treat. I even managed to remove the dots and the spacer bar from the login screen.
Brilliant - Thanks again for you help.
