Remove the user register and password tabs on registration page

1. Find or add a custom module, and add this to the [MODULENAME].module

<?php
function [MODULENAME]_menu_alter(&$items) {
  $items['user']['type'] = MENU_CALLBACK;
  $items['user/register']['type'] = MENU_CALLBACK;
  $items['user/password']['type'] = MENU_CALLBACK;
}
?>

2. Go to Site Configuration > Site Performance, Click Clear Cache

3. Open a second browser and navigate to /user and it should be gone! Yay!
