I haven't tried it myself, buy why not create a macro that wraps a server control or user control that renders the link only if a member is logged in?

you can then enable this macro for the editor

Your control should be something like:

public class MembersLink : Control
    {
        public int MediaId { get; set; }
        public string Text { get; set; }

        protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
        {
            if (umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member.Member.GetCurrentMember() != null)
            {
                Media media = new Media(MediaId);

                writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Href, media.getProperty("umbracoFile").Value.ToString());
                writer.RenderBeginTag(HtmlTextWriterTag.A);
                writer.Write(Text);
                writer.RenderEndTag();
            }

        }
    }

Or go with a Razor-macro that checks if the user is logged on. You could use inline razor to do it in a template if you want to.

And to add to the replies...

You can also check for a member being logged in via XSLT.

<xsl:if test="umbraco.library:IsLoggedOn() = 1">
...
</xsl:if>

So 3 different coding techniques to achieve the same results - and why do they say Umbraco is brilliant...

If you want to protect media files you can use Media Protect.

Thanks everyone for your help.... I guess what I was wondering was can this be done at the Content side of things (within the Ruch Text Editor portion) - On the template side I know this is possible.

@Jeroen: If I use Media Protect - would the link in the Rich Text just not show up? Is that how it works... I can read the material and see..

Thanks,
