Hi, I'm having trouble setting up the Taxonomy Access module to disallow access to anonymous users to a forum topic and several pages.
History: Tried using Simple Access, and that worked very well to secure individual pages, but I am using mailhandler and listhandler to create a discussion list archive in a forum topic, and in order to make that archive private, I believe I need to use Taxonomy Access. I have deactivated and removed Simple Access and removed the database tables related to it as well.
I have uploaded the Taxonomy Access module, run the mysql commands for Taxonomy Access, and manually patched the file (I'm on Windows myself with little remote access to the site server).
The access control is working a little for the forum topics, but not at all for the pages. Here's what I've set up:
1 vocabulary called "Security" (for pages) with 1 term called "Members Only". There is also a vocabulary called "Forums" (for forum topics) with a term called "Archive".
Authorized users can view all. Anonymous users are supposed to only be able to view uncategorized nodes.
Here's what happens for an anonymous user:
When you navigate to a page categorized "Members Only", an anonymous user can view it just fine. When you navigate to example.com/?q=forum, it says "No Forums Defined" (which is just fine, because authorized users can see the forums) but if I navigate to example.com/?q=node/104 (one of the forum topics that is supposed to be secure) I can see it just fine. This is an issue because someone may send a URL to a non-member, and registration is required to view the archive.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Many thanks, Matthew O'Malley
