Blackboard allows you to configure which links will be visible on the login page, such as the one that enables account creation or even the URL from which to change the password.

To edit these options, go to Administration Panel > Security > Gateway Options.

You can then enable/disable:

• A link to the course catalog. Or a link to an external URL containing that catalog
• Account creation. We recommend that this option be disabled.
• Password change request. In this section, you can also specify the URL for this change if you do not want to use the standard Blackboard one, as may be the case when using external authentications (LDAP, SAML).
• Guest access to the system, courses, and organizations.

Once all parameters are selected, just click Submit.
