Hi - we have inherited a Discourse forum which is well established. I would like to modify the functionality of the “create account” header button. I managed to install the Ember Chrome plug-in which I used to inspect the buttons - it revealed a path: /var/www/discourse/app/assets/java…

So if local logins are disabled the button would go straight to the sso auth?

Yes. That’s what happens if SSO is the only auth method.
