New page

==What is user registration?==
By default casual visitors are allowed to register themselves on your website to gain access to additional resources. For example, registered users might be allowed to submit news items or web links. All Joomla! websites implement a user registration policy which can be adapted to suit your particular requirements. You can disable user registration altogether if you prefer.

Users register themselves on your website using the "Create an account" link on the Login Form module. Once registered, users will log in to your website by entering their username and password using the same module. There are also links on this module to manage users who forget their usernames or passwords. You can choose the pages on your website that the Login Form module will appear on.

You can disable user registration but still have the Login Form module enabled. In this case there will be no "Create an account" link shown on the Login Form module and you will need to register users manually from the Administrator back-end. Once registered they will be able to login on the front-end as normal. This allows you to retain complete control over user registration.
