Plone: Hide the Login Button
If the content of your Plone site is not editable by the general public, there is no point in displaying the login link to non-authenticated users.
Remove Login Action
To remove the login button,
- go to Site Setup → Zope Management Interface
- navigate to portal_actions/user
- edit the login action
- untick the Visible? check box
While this will hide the login facility from the visiting public, the personal tools menu will still remain accessible for the logged-in user.
Those who need access to the site, can simply bookmark the site's /login[1] page.
Hide the Personal Bar
Alternatively, if you don't want to delve into the ZMI, you can hide the personal bar via the viewlet manager at /portal_actions/@@manage-viewlets.
However, this has the disadvantage that it will also affect authenticated users as links to Dashboard, Preferences and Site Setup will no longer be conveniently accessible from the personal tools drop-down menu.
- ^ Plone 3 and earlier versions use /login_form.
- This process has been tested with Plone 4.1
