I’m trying to do a site where all the user can do is use a standard login to get to documents on the other side of the login. I don’t need profiles,
which means I don’t want the users to be able to create a profile, edit a profile, view a profile, delete a profile, or anything else with a
profile. I assume that’s going to be in the &disableServices= parameter. I can’t find all of the individual services that can be disabled anywhere
so I am not sure what to disable. Help?

It’s not completely clear what you want.
Do you mean "get to" documents in the Manager or the front end of the site?
If you mean the Manager, you wouldn’t need WLPE at all (unless you need it for something else). You can set Manager User roles for each user and just have the users log in as Manager Users (like you do) and see a limited Manager.
If you mean the front end, you can just use WebLogin and then use the Personalize snippet to show a different menu to logged on users to let them access the documents (if that would do what you want).
I want to use WebloginPE for users to log in...forget what happens after logging other than what relates to profiles. I just don’t want them to have any access to profiles at all.
You do realise that users can still get to their profile page by simply adding &service=profile (or &service=viewprofile) to the url ?
You can disable services by using the &disableServices parameter. You can find which services are available in the webloginpe documentation (assets/snippets/webloginpe/docs/views.html). For instance
[!WebLoginPE? type=`simple` &disableServices=`profile,saveprofilesimple,deleteprofilesimple` ~]
I agree with BobRay though, I don;t quite understand why you are not just using the standard WebLogin snippet instead if you are not using any of the extended functionality of webloginpe.
