Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: comment.module Category: tasks Priority: normal Assigned to: killes@www.drop.org Reported by: killes@www.drop.org Updated by: Steven Status: patch Is this patch still needed? Doesn't it tie comment.module unnecessarily into node.module? Steven Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ August 29, 2004 - 07:55 : killes@www.drop.org Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/node-access-comment.patch (5 KB) There have been requests to private forums. I think the most straightforward way to allow them is by extending the node_access hook. The attached patch tries this. It assumes that my node object caching patch got committed. Afterwards loading a node twice won't be a performance issue anymore. The patch is untested, I'd like to get feedback on the implementation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ August 31, 2004 - 17:53 : killes@www.drop.org Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/node-access-comment_0.patch (5.02 KB) The patch is now tested. I think this needs a better explanations: The patch isn't only for forums (which still need some kind of taxonomy permissions) but applies to all nodes. You can set individual nodes to be commentable through the _access hook. This would be helpfull for a forum where only a selected role should be allowed to post, but others should read the announcements. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 4, 2004 - 09:57 : killes@www.drop.org The patch has a small problem: We need either to move this check <?php if ($op == 'comment' && $node->comment == 2 && user_access('post comments')) {     return TRUE; } ?> before the db query (and thus taking away a bit of the power from that patch) or add a grant_comment column to the node_access table: alter table node_access add grant_comment tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0'; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 5, 2004 - 11:42 : killes@www.drop.org Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/node-access-comment_0_0.patch (4.78 KB) Keeping up with CVS. I'd like to receive some feedback on the resolution of the problme mentioned above. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 13, 2004 - 03:25 : killes@www.drop.org Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/module_0.patch (7.1 KB) Keeping up with cvs. Node modules should implement _access('comment'). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ September 14, 2004 - 07:38 : killes@www.drop.org Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/commentable.patch (7.89 KB) Had forgotten blog.module -- View: http://drupal.org/node/10426 Edit: http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/10426
