I've realized that I probably should have gotten the single user Wordpress rather than the multi-user. So, how do I remove the line that says: "Hi there! To start your own blog you must first register"?

I really don't want visitors to set up their own blogs.

I would be interested to know this as well.  I would like to have multiple blogs but only ones that we create...not site users.  Thank you!

I'm in the same boat... don't want users to create their own blogs.

I tried removing this language from 'home.php' in the theme folder, but that didn't seem to do it.

This is under this file:

/media/wpmu/themes/everyhome/home.php

You can remove it there.

I tried removing this language from 'home.php' in the theme folder, but that didn't seem to do it.

I changed mine and it seems fine. It now looks like this:

Code: [Select]
    <?php if(get_site_option('registration') == 'blog' && $current_user->ID && (!$current_user->primary_blog || $current_user->primary_blog == 1) && $current_user->ID != 62){ ?>
        <a href="<?php echo wp_jroute($link 'index.php?option='.$component_name.'&task=wp-signup.php'); ?>">Create a new blog</a>
        <?php }
                
$db             =& JFactory::getDBO();

Note: I have user registration disabled, so I haven't touched the top part of that code (yet).
