Disable Frontend Registration

[jordan_cardwell]

Hello,

I am trying to disable frontend customer registration for a specific website / store view within Magento 1.9.2.2.

I was given the following solution

<events>
    <customer_registration_is_allowed>
        <observers>
            <your_module_set_is_active>
                <class>Your_Module_Model_Observers_Customer</class>
                <method>disableCustomerRegistration</method>
            </your_module_set_is_active>
        </observers>
    </customer_registration_is_allowed>
</events>

class Your_Module_Model_Observers_Customer
{
    /**
     * Force disable customer registration
     *
     * @param  Varien_Event_Observer $observer Observer
     * @return void
     */
    public function disableCustomerRegistration($observer)
    {
        $result = $observer->getResult();

        if ($result->getIsAllowed() === true) {
            $result->setIsAllowed(false);
        }
    }
}

In if condition, you can use current store and website Id for disable customer regsitration process for particular store and website.

The issue is, I do not know where I should insert this code.

I have tried to find the file at this path: frontend/rwd/kellyseye/template/persistent/customer/form/login.phtml

But I can't find this in my folder structure via FTP.

Please help!

Hello @jordan_cardwell

You can do like this :

=> Add app/etc/modules/Mycompany_All.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Mycompany_Registrationremove>
<active>true</active>
<codePool>local</codePool>
</Mycompany_Registrationremove>
</modules>
</config>

=> Modify the file : app/code/local/Mycompany/Registrationremove/etc/config.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Mycompany_Registrationremove>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</Mycompany_Registrationremove>
</modules>
<global>
<rewrite>
<mycompany_registrationremove_customer_account_create>
<from><![CDATA[#^/customer/account/create/$#]]></from>
<to>/registrationremove/customer_account/create</to>
</mycompany_registrationremove_customer_account_create>
<mycompany_registrationremove_customer_account_createPost>
<from><![CDATA[#^/customer/account/createPost/$#]]></from>
<to>/registrationremove/customer_account/createPost</to>
</mycompany_registrationremove_customer_account_createPost>
</rewrite>
</global>
<frontend>
<routers>
<mycompany_registrationremove>
<use>standard</use>
<args>
<module>Mycompany_Registrationremove</module>
<frontName>registrationremove</frontName>
</args>
</mycompany_registrationremove>
</routers>
</frontend>
</config>
