Hello, I am not able to locate where I can enable the “public sign up”. As of now, the login widget throws an error “public signup is disabled” when I enter a new email and click on “sign up”. Every post on this topic seems to points to an older version of auth0 dashboard where there was a “connections” tab on the left sidebar where you can enable/disable the “public signup”. Where is this option in the latest version of the auth0 dashboard? Thanks ---

Hi @rakesh.iitm, Welcome to the Auth0 Community! If you navigate to the settings page for the connection you are working with you will see a ‘disable signups’ toggle. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/auth0/original/3X/7/3/73759fcffa1a21b9c093aad549e7ebe4634f9c69.png) ---

I checked the “settings” page including the last section “Advanced”. ---

I am going: Applications → “Default App” → Settings. I see sections like “Application Properties” … “Refresh Token Rotation” , “Advanced” etc. But there is no “Disable Sign Ups”. [To remind, I want to enable sign ups] Is it missing some config from my side? I am able to test “login with google” end-to-end. Only “signup” is not working. Here I am assuming a new user should be able to signup by verifying email. And the user database will remain with auth0 but I should be able to fetch user information same way I am doing for a “login with gmail” user. @dan.woda please point me to the relevant doc. ---

Yes, you need to go to the _connection settings_, not the application settings. You can find the connections under the _Authentication_ tab on the left hand nav bar. ---
