  Yes, it is set to false.
  Maybe I was tricked because I had one Domain whitelisted. I don't remember if the "Register"-Link was always there. Would love to hide it.

  It seems, that the disabled registration does work. Sorry for alerting...

  @timconsidine thanks for checking. My install is also "older"... Is the registration link visible or invisible in your instance?

  Hello,

  is it just me or is there something wrong with the Vaultwarden App. I have disabled new registrations. Today after the update I realized, that there is a register link on the login page (now?). I tried to register and was successfull. Can someone confirm that registration is disabled and works as expected on their instance?

  Best,
  Michael

  CCAI : Cloudron Custom App Installer

  @humptydumpty and I am working on another non-Cloudron way to get over the blockage of getting CCAI-P into the AppStore. One simple download.

  But ssssh, don’t tell anyone yet

  Update 20/01/2026 :

  • I am deprecating installation of the open version of CCAI, as I don't really see that anyone would want to host their own open version.
    It's still available, but you will have to hunt for it or ask me.
    Basically I've removed it from the catalogue.

  • I've updated CCAI-P which is the preferred self-host app.
    Runs on your own instance, credentials are stored in the app on your server

  • timeouts removed from CCAI-P : you're logged in or you're not : logout button for security, but you can leave it running if it's only you have access to it

  • added 3 new descriptors :

    • packageAuthor : previously implied, now explicit
    • appNote : extended explanation of the catalogue entry
    • appHomepage : clickable link to the app's Homepage so you can read about it

  • it will take a little while for me to populate the new fields for all apps, but will get on with it.

  @staff : can I modify the AppWishlist to the effect :

  • please DO NOT add CCAI to the AppStore
  • please DO add CCAI-P to the AppStore
  • or please make your own version (which I am sure will be more lovely)

  There are clear pain points in installing custom apps.
  This is eminently resolvable.
  The problem is without an official way to get CCAI-P, users still have to go through those pain points. Maybe only once, but that's enough to deter them.

  The growing catalogue of custom apps (and there are many more that I am not aware of) shows that relying on the App Store only, and relying on approval of items into the App Store, is a clear bottle neck to maximum use and efficiency of a user's Cloudron instance.

  EDIT : at the risk of over-selling the point, can Cloudron staff imagine this ? A daily workload where they never ever have to think about adding apps to the Cloudron AppStore, unless they really want to. No more user pressure.
