# Registration settings
One of the most important questions about your Synap platform is '**How will my users sign up to the portal**'. Head over to Settings>Portal Settings>Registration to configure your sign up method and the login page customisation.
Settings> Portal settings > Registration page
From here select the colours, descriptions and background images shown on your portal signup / login page. Head over to [universe.synap.ac](https://universe.synap.ac) to see an example.
Example login page
The image login page images shows to users on the right of the login page. As this page is responsive we recommend not including lots of text or anything that can be cropped. [Click here for a template](https://synap-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/portalstore/PortalBackground+\(2\).png) with a safe zone indicated - Use a high quality rectangle image around **1430x945px**
### ✍️Sign-up method
{% hint style="danger" %}
🚨 Sign-up method is really important - if you don't want users to be able to create their own account you should leave it as closed (ie if you're selling exams or learning)
{% endhint %}
* **Sign-up method** - how users can sign up for the portal, if closed there will be no 'Get started' button and users will be advised to contact the administrator for access details.
* **Allowed domains** - list domains you want to allow to create accounts
* **Title** - Top line on the login page (see below)
* **Description** - Paragraph below the title on the login page, supports links, see below.
* **Background image** - The image that appears to the right of the login page

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://academy.synap.ac/doc/portal-settings/portal-settings/registration-settings.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
