Advise Guest to login to see Attachments

[aw06]

On SMF 1.1.12 When attachments are disabled from guest viewing, ... is it possible to have a note so they can know an attachment is present and they need to login to see it...

you can check the mod site and if you dont see a mod to do what you want you can post in the proper board to request one.

I assume you mean "Register", coz guests can't log in...

I can't find a mod that does exactly what you want. But, what about this one?

Well technically register yes .. but a guest can login if they have an account  Many people will view as guest and only log in when they need to post etc...

Naw that mod is totally diff..

Maybe a post in "Mod Requests", then?

It'd be fairly easy to do with a template tweak. Something like... if ($context['user']['is_logged']) {} around where the attachments are outputted. You'd also probably want to add an else that would show a link to $scripturl. '?action=register and a similar one for logging in.

If possible can you move this ?? so i don't have to re-post ?

Yup, more i less what i was thinking .. a guest would see in place of the actual attachment..

Attachment Available - Please Register or Login to View

I'll go ahead and write up the mod for you. Give me 5 minutes.

OK, my site if currently down .. and wont be back up for a few hours .. as well as i will be installing a few attachment mods ... so if possible you can hold off until i am back up and running, as i am not sure if the mods will affect the mod you would write .. buts thanks allot for your effort and offer..

Hmmm, I did a fresh install of 1.1.12, and I can't see attachments when I'm a guest anyways?

Check permissions ... Perhaps by default the option for guest to view attachments is set to off ..

Nice that was really quick 

Question: Will it show that message for each attachment ? or it will just show one message ? also can you show me what files are modified so i can see if it will conflict with other attachment mods I will be installing ...

[Matthew K.]

It shows one message despite the count of attachments. It shouldn't have any conflicts. It's fairly straight forward.

It makes two modifications to Display.template.php.

The 1st:

Code (Find) Select Expand

if (!empty($message['attachment']))

Code (Replace) Select Expand

if (!empty($message['attachment']) && $context['user']['is_logged'])
The 2nd:

Code (Find) Select Expand

echo '
</td>
</tr><tr>
<td valign="bottom" class="smalltext" id="modified_', $message['id'], '">';

Code (Add Before) Select Expand

// Labradoodle-360; Hide Attachments from Guests
elseif ($context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($message['attachment']))
echo '<hr width="100%" size="1" class="hrcolor" />
<div style="overflow: auto; width: 100%;">
<strong>', $txt['lab360_attachments_avail'], '</strong>
</div>';
// End Labradoodle-360; Hide Attachments from Guests
Then it makes one modification to Modifications.english.php

Code (Add Before End) Select Expand

$txt['lab360_attachments_avail'] = 'Attachment(s) Available - <a href="'. $scripturl. '?action=login" target="_self">Login</a> or <a href="'. $scripturl. '?action=register" target="_self">Register</a>';

Donations are appreciated as always

You can also take this mod over and submit it to the SMF Mod Site if you would like, as I have no intentions of submitting it.

Not a problem. Feel free to mark this topic as resolved once you are confident the results are as you are expecting.

Should'nt that be
if (!empty($message['attachment']) && $context['user']['is_guest'])
