Don't show "Sign Up" option on New Universal Login

Hello there, I’m using Wordpress with auth0 as identity provider(signup + login). Signup is done via a special form using the api. Login is done using the New Universal Login page. This page has the option to register as well but we only want user to register via our custom form. is there a way to hide the signup option on the New Universal Login page or at least re-rout the signup lint to a different page? Thank you! Philipp

Hi @nir.a,

Thanks for reaching out to the Auth0 Community!

We need to disable the signup option when in the new Universal Login. Is it still not possible?

Yes, this is possible! To do so, you will need to navigate to your Auth0 Dashboard > Connections > YOUR_CONNECTION settings and scroll to the bottom and toggle on the Disable Sign Ups button.

After doing so, your New Universal Login Page will hide the signup option completely.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks,
Rueben

Thank you for your reply.

To better understand this scenario, could you please elaborate more on what you intend to do with Social Connections?

Thanks,

The solution you provided to hide the signup works. By disabling it for username-password authentication. In our universal login we enabled username-password authentication and google-oauth2 authentication.
When the user clicks on on google authentication they are being signup, we don’t receive an error from auth0 that the user doesn’t exists.

BTW, the solution you provided stop any signinig up. We should still be able signup throw the invitation link but now it is not working as well.

Hi @nir.a,

Thank you for your responses.

@nir.a

When the user clicks on on google authentication they are being signup, we don’t receive an error from auth0 that the user doesn’t exists.

This is the expected behavior since the origin of the user is from the Identity provider, Google, in this case. Therefore, if the user exists in Google, they can continue to log in/signup to your app(behaves the same), and it will create a Google Social connection user in Auth0.

One workaround I can offer is to use a Post-Login action to redirect your social users to a consent page on their first time logging in, where they can accept your privacy terms and resume authentication.

Please see our Redirect with Actions documentation for more details.

Yes, this should prevent users from signing up, but you can still continue creating users with the Management API Create a User endpoint or from the Auth0 Dashboard > User Management > Users > Create a User.

I hope this has been helpful!

Please let me know how this works for you.

Thanks,
Rueben
