I need to configure a few pages so that they display on my menu but force the user to login when they are clicked. I'm sure I've done this before somehow?

If I give the pages a specific role they aren't shown to guest users.
Any thoughts...?

Thanks.

This is sort of similar to the above post but just expands on Mike's point. If you give anyone a url of a page on your site that is only visible to a registered user then the recipient, once they click on the url is automatically taken to the login screen prior to accessing the actual page you gave them. So I guess my point is that you can code a link to that url pretty much any way you want (see proper use of url's in a link threads) and it will require the user login first. The way above is a good example though of integrating it with your existing menu.

This is how I solved this issue.

1. Set the page permission to "All Users."  This keeps the page available in the menu regardless weather a visitor is logged in or not.
2. Add an "Account Login" module somewhere on your page.  This will prompt visitors to login/register if they are NOT logged in.  It will hide itself if visitor IS logged in.
3. Set the permission on the content module you want to hide from unregistered users to only be visible to those who you want to see it.  Uncheck "All users" if it is checked.
    

The only thing I don't like is that when a user logs in, users are sent to the home page.  Besides that it works fine.
