Login setting request

[TripleU]

Hi,

I really enjoy your forums and appreciate the work you’re doing. I have a question about a feature for my own tech forum, which runs on Discourse.

I want to encourage users to log in when accessing my uploads, guides, and links. Is there a way to set it up so that users can see the content of a post but not the links or uploaded files unless they are logged in?

I don’t want to require users to log in just to view a post, as that might reduce engagement. Ideally, I want them to see the post itself, but only reveal the links and uploaded content once they’ve logged in.

Thanks in advance for your help!

The best way to do this I think is to put the uploads and links in a secure category.

You could also try enabling the prevent anons from downloading files setting. I have not used this before so if you try it please let us know how it works out for you!
