Content of website I am developing is for registered users only; therefore even if I publish a welcome page, anonymous users cannot view it.If I want to display a welcome page for anonymous users, is there a way to do this?

BTW, I already have a customised frontpage created with Views module, which has a list of story teasers. Allowing anonymous users' access to this page does not help, as their access to nodes is restricted.

Did you try with the access permissions in the view? There are checkboxes to allow users to access the view. If you check nothing, view is public, if you check one or more roles, only the checked could access.

Also, you can display a block (or hide it) read this http://drupal.org/node/90757
The same PHP code could apply inside every node, to print (or not) something. I have seen this but now I can´t find it. I guess you can put "prints" or whatever due to the condition.
Hope this help.

Thanks, but I have modified access permission in the view. It does not work, as anonymous users' access to nodes is restricted by Access control, which supersedes the view's setting.

I tried the code from here (http://drupal.org/node/86241), but it's the same thing. Access control simply denies anonymous users' access.

I think the Front Page module is what you're looking for.

It worked perfectly. This is exactly what I wanted. Thanks!
