How Do I Disable WooCommerce Registration?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 8:12 pm

The WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is a great tool for setting up an online store. However, you may not want to allow users to register on your site. In this case, you can disable the registration feature in WooCommerce.

To do this, go to the WooCommerce settings page (WooCommerce > Settings), and then click on the Accounts tab. On this page, you will see an option to “Enable registration on the “My Account” page”. Simply uncheck this box, and then click on the Save Changes button.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to disable WooCommerce registration, please be aware that this may impact your store’s ability to function properly. Additionally, it is important to note that disabling registration will also prevent any customer who attempts to register from being able to do so. As a result, we recommend that you only disable WooCommerce registration if you are absolutely sure that it is necessary.

Now, when users try to register on your site, they will see a message saying that registration is disabled.

If you later decide that you want to enable registration again, simply go back to the WooCommerce settings page and check the box again.
