show node title to unregistered users

Question

I'm using content access module to restrict certain nodes and node types for un-registered users.

But I would like to create a view where unregistered users can also see titles of those restricted nodes.

How can I do this ?

Answer 1

If you want to restrict access to some fields and not to others, you really should be using permissions per field. I assume all fields are built with CCK, so just enable permission for the content-type, but disable for all fields.

That way, only the title is visible. I don't think you can disable permissions for the standard body field, but I always use a CCK text-area for that anyway, it's alot easier also for css since the standard body field isn't wrapped in default node printing.

I haven't used this personally, but I just saw it pop up in the drupal.org module feed a few days ago, and it should help: http://drupal.org/project/views_ignore_node_permissions

You can write a simple module for this, which does the following:

• query the node titles you want to show (called by hook_menu)
• theme the result (hook_theme)
• display the result (hook_block)

in the *hook_perm* you can create a new permission who you would like to show the node titles, if it is for everybody, just use 'access content'.
