Can we have Login/Register link to anonymous users instead of showing nothing as they don't have permission to see webfm attachments ?

Basically when user don't have permission to download, they should be able to see the file and Login/Register to download message.

Basically Showing trees and Downloading for Anonymous doesn't work at all.
See here: #475294: No trees found in Public access

I was looking for the same thing

If using CCK - goto file_formatter.inc in filefield folder in module

and paste the following code at the bottom

global $user;
if ($user->uid == 0) {
$url = "";
$link_text = "You must register or login to download attachments.";
}

  return '<div class="filefield-file clear-block">'. $icon . l($link_text, $url, $options) .'</div>';
}

I do not know how safe it it. But it worked for me. And it seems to be fine.

Dear gauravkhambhala,
you should be able to achieve this behavior by using logintoboggan. Its not related to webfm to provide a login screen I think.

Thank you.
