Restricted registrations or removing the ability to edit your password/email

This solution is purely cosmetic, in that it simply hides via jQuery the fields on the user profile page, but that effectively removes the ability for the user to change the password (admin will still see the fields, and can change any time). Add this to your theme’s functions.php file, and you’re done.

add_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'hide_profile_options');
add_action( 'show_user_profile', 'hide_profile_options');

function hide_profile_options() {
    if( !current_user_can('install_themes') ) : ?>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    jQuery(document).ready(function(){
        jQuery("#your-profile h3:contains('Personal Options') + table").remove();
        jQuery("#your-profile h3:contains('Personal Options')").remove();
        jQuery("#your-profile h3:contains('About Yourself') + table").remove();
        jQuery("#your-profile h3:contains('About Yourself')").remove();
    });
    </script>
<?php
    endif;
}

You can hide the other blocks, too, if desired… just duplicate the lines and change the h3 contents…

For what you’re describing, hiding the entire User Profile admin subpanel could work too, but this is a little more precise.
