ACL

Hej!

Jag la precis in två moduler (ACL och Forum Access) som när jag aktiverade krävde att jag byggde om rättigheterna för innehållet på sidan. Okej, fine, tänkte jag och satte igång det. Visserligen stod det att det skulle ta lång tid, men va fasen, den har kört i flera timmar!? Är detta normalt? Jag har bara ca 200 noder i databasen, så det borde ju inte ta så lång tid!?

Hi to all,

Our organisation recently decided to change our CMS from Joomla to Drupal. We would like to use groups on our site and organic groups seemed the obvious choice. I suggested this to our site designer but he immediately flag a concern with incompatibility of the Organic groups module with the ACL module as he found information in the OG handbook stating that "you can't use this module with other node access modules". He sent a query 2 weeks ago at http://drupal.org/node/384094 but has so far received no replies.

I also found a thread at http://drupal.org/project/og_user_roles which states that the OG user roles modules supports ACL. Does "support "mean that it is compatible? And does this mean that the OG module is as well?

Is the Organic groups module compatible with the ACL module? How can we use both OG and ACL modules together?

Joomla has announced availability of new ACL: http://is.gd/iA5B and they seem pretty excited about it. Is that something for Drupal community to be jealous of?

If you come from a Java/J2EE background the clear answer is: NO (yes, in capital letters). You have to actually suffer from a structured, strict ACL to really appreciate the simplicity of a security system like that of Drupal.

Now, you may argue that Drupal security is slightly over-simplistic and too code-oriented (makes us, the developers happy) for "business" use.

http://drupal.org/project/nodeaccess
I think there are some more access / permission UI modules but those two look for me nearly absolutely identical except content_access uses ACL for user permissions.

BTW: I see sometimes a block "Recommendation: Related projects" when accessing projects.. who is maintaining those information? Is it automatically tag based? Because in both cases each other isn't showing up.

Hi,

I'm a little bit frustrated by the User access implementation proposed for OG, it's too much complicated and i don't think that TAC/CA/ACL/OG combination with many many many hacks is the right way (but it's a very very good work too).

So, i really need for my project, this simple things:

1) Organic Group
2) User can post in Public or in their suscribed groups
3) AND they must have the possibility to grant other users that can be outside of his group

I eventually want to hunt for someone to do development on this idea, but first I'd like to find out how it can be designed to be of greatest benefit to the community.

I want to be able to manage access to a node, with CCK fields. The node should be viewable by both a role and at least a single (ideally multiple) user(s) not in the role.

Trong cuốn Building Online Community with Drupal trang 36 nó có cái hình này:

Sao khi mình cài Drupal lên thì ko có thêm 2 cái quyền mà mình đánh dấu trong hình nhỉ?

Hi,

I'm a Drupal user and would enjoy occasionally meeting to talk about Drupal and learn more about it. I'm currently in the process of launching my company's web site which will be, of course, powered by Drupal. But I have a ways to go and since I'm a Drupal user and not a developer, I'll be relying heavily on Robert Douglass' book and drupal.org forums to learn my way around.

With regard to the Austin Drupal Group, I can help some with the planning and execution of events. I'm not a developer, just a Drupal user, but I can help with setting up the logistics for local events such as asking folks to provide a location, etc. I hope we can find some other Drupal users/developers in the Austin area to get things going!
