Hi, I am trying to find a good way to have the option of only showing the teaser, with a 'Subscribe to read article' link instead of the default 'read more'. This gives an idea how to do it per role: http://drupal.org/node/126075 But the user would have to be logged-in for that to work. Any tips on showing teasers-only for not logged-in users, and full teaser+page when they are logged in?

The ``anonymous user'' role is what you would use for unauthenticated users.

Ahh, I see. Would I have to have to publish the page as 'visible to all' then? I'm thinking if the page is set to members-only the teaser won't show on the frontpage at all, regardless of any theme changes that are made, right? If I publish the srticles as 'free' I think there might be a lot of other issues with them being accessible directly, and from search results for non-members.

Would it be a better approach to make a view that shows just the teasers, and only show that for anonymous users?

Thanks for your help.

Richard

You might not find a simple work around. The thing is, drupal determines which nodes you can see on a per node basis. So you can't really make a node half accessible. You might find some help in the CCK Field Permissions project, http://drupal.org/project/cck_field_perms

That looks like it might be an option, I'll have a go. Thanks,

Richard.
