    Users log in to your Refined site with their Atlassian Cloud account. If they have Atlassian SAML SSO activated, logging in to one Refined site doesn’t automatically log them in on other Refined sites.

    While the Login button is part of the navigation menu by default, it can be beneficial to hide it on some of your sites. For example on public documentation sites on which the majority of users will only read information and has no reason to log in. That’s why we offer the option to hide the button from public sites.

    1. Go to the Refined Administration.

    2. Click Sites in the left-hand menu.

    3. Pick the site you want to work with.

    To only give a small audience the option to log in, hide the login button and add the login URL to a module on a specific landing page on your site.

    Info

    If you were using custom CSS to hide the login button before we released this feature, we recommend you to remove it and use the feature instead. We don’t offer support for issues that occur due to custom code.
