Show header link, but require login when to view page?

cbunting99cbunting99 New
in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8

I was just wondering. I have 3 pages currently hidden unless the users become members. But I think some people are getting confused and not realizing that the extra links show up after they validate their email and login.

Is there some code I can add to the custom page, so that the header links can show, but the content of the page is blocked telling the person that they need to sign in to view the page?

I want to have all the links show, but just restrict access to the page, not so much the header link..

Would this be possible?

Thanks,
Chris

    This really sounds like a good use for the Custom Pages plugin. Add the links to the navbar in your default.master.tpl file, then check the permissions on the page itself.

    you can easily do this with extrapages plugin as well as there is even an example. :)

    You don't have to use the header link option with Basic Pages. You can simply add links in your theme's default.master.tpl file.
