It seems to me that what you really want to do is remove the login
link from the sidebar; your admins can then bookmark the login URL and
use it normally, but no one else will know that DSpace can be logged
into.
You could try to override this in your theme by refusing to display
the <list> element with id
"aspect.artifactbrowser.Navigation.list.account", but this will create
the unwelcome side effect that logged-in administrators won't have any
way to log *out*.
I suspect it would be preferable to go into
xmlui/aspect/eperson/Navigation.java and comment out the else clause
in the following code (lines 209-220):
if (eperson != null)
{
String fullName = eperson.getFullName();
account.addItemXref(contextPath+"/logout",T_logout);
account.addItemXref(contextPath+"/profile",T_profile.parameterize(fullName));
}
else
{
account.addItemXref(contextPath+"/login",T_login);
if
(ConfigurationManager.getBooleanProperty("xmlui.user.registration",
true))
account.addItemXref(contextPath+"/register",T_register);
}
Without the else clause, ordinary users won't see any login or
register links. You may also decide to comment out line 207:
account.setHead(T_my_account);
but that may be somewhat easier to deal with on the theme level.
Hope this helps!
