Now, I know that vb will stop unregistered users from downloading attachments, but here's another quick way to get the attachment itself SHOWN to members only, while letting guests know they're missing something.

replace postbit_attachment (yeah, all of it) with:

Code:

<tr>
	<if condition="$show['member']">
	<td><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_attach]/$attachment[attachmentextension].gif" alt="<phrase 1="$attachment[attachmentextension]">$vbphrase[file_type_x]</phrase>" width="16" height="16" border="0" style="vertical-align:baseline" /></td>
	<td><a href="attachment.php?$session[sessionurl]attachmentid=$attachment[attachmentid]&amp;d=$attachment[dateline]"<if condition="$show['newwindow']"> target="_blank"</if>>$attachment[filename]</a> ($attachment[filesize]<if condition="$show['views']">, <phrase 1="$attachment[counter]">$vbphrase[x_views]</phrase></if>)</td>
<else />
<td> This post has an attachment which you could see if you were <a href="/register.php">registered</a>. Registering is quick and easy</td>
</if>
</tr>

This will let guests know they're missing something, not give them a preview, and tell them how to get it. It really is incredibly easy to do, just like my 3.7 version
