Removing the user login block from Drupal sites

user login

The user login block is ugly in Drupal by default, and we thought we'd posted about theming it to make it look different but apparetntly not yet (hint: you can do a whole lot with CSS, it is id block-user-0), but for lots of sites you may not want it to display at all. (LoginToboggan module can replace the login block it with a login/register link.)

For instance, your site may not have any reason for anyone log in except administrators.

Resolution

So you can simply go to admin/build/block/ and set the region/display for the User login block to none, and save the page.

Note the administrative users can log into their Drupal site at http://example.com/user
