Tao, I think that Moshe is not correct in this, since node module will invoke hook_X where hook is defined by the (ill-named) 'module' field for the node type, or 'node_content' in the case of GUI-defined types. So, I do think yo need to define your own node type (even as a very thin wrapper around the node.module functions) in order to be able to have a custom hook_access(). -Peter PS - http://drupal.org/node/206138 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Tao Starbow <starbow@citris-uc.org> To: development@drupal.org Date: Tue, 05 Feb 2008 10:23:23 -0800 Subject: Re: [development] allowing some users some days to write stories Has anyone successfully done this, adding a hook_access for a node type created through the GUI (in Drupal 5)? I tried this a week or two ago and couldn't get it working, so I would love to see an example of the right way to do it. -tao Moshe Weitzman wrote:
I think that you can just add a hook_access implementation in a custom module for GUI created content types. node.module does not do that for you, thankfully.
