I am using Omeka S (4.0) and I want to add a login page before accessing the site. I also want to add a registration page so that users can create an account. How can I do that?
Thank you
Hi there! You can’t. Omeka is designed to be an open platform. You can have an S platform with one site that is set to private, so that the page that would normally list a selection of sites only shows the link to log in.
https://omeka.org/s/docs/user-manual/frontpage/
You can have installation users set to the lowest level of permissions (Researcher) but they will always have administrative access to the backend:
https://omeka.org/s/docs/user-manual/admin/users/
And then each of those users can be given Viewer access to the one particular site you wish them to see:
https://omeka.org/s/docs/user-manual/sites/site_users/
But this is not the same thing as having private access to a site. They will always have admin access, not just front-end access.
We also don’t offer a registration page. I believe there may be some third-party modules that will add things like a registration form or some more of your requests, but they are not supported by the Omeka team.
