Hi @simon. Thx! That action works in terms of preventing the user from logging in which is awesome! However, the wp-discourse plugin seems to still **automatically create the user** in Discourse (I think it happens upon them logging in). Is there a way to prevent that from happening? I see that there’s a action called _wpdc\_sso\_provider\_before\_create\_user_ which I tried using but no dice. I tried using it like so:

```
add_action( 'wpdc_sso_provider_before_create_user', 'wpdc_custom_before_create_user', 10, 2 );
function wpdc_custom_before_create_user( $user_login, $user ) {
	
	if ( ...my condition here... ) {
	    return(false);	
	}

}

```

(we don’t want to them to be a member of the forum at all because they’ll get the summary emails and so forth)
