I just had the same issue. My solution is a mix of these answers.

1. Comment out or remove :registerable in user.rb:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  devise :database_authenticatable, #:registerable,
         :recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable
end

2. Remove the registration paths from devise_for in routes.rb:

devise_for :users, :skip => [:registrations], controllers: {
  sessions: 'users/sessions'
}

Now Devise will skip all of the registration links from their view and also you no longer have the registration paths on your routes.
