Hi klausbenni1,

The Protected Node is on a per node basis by default. You may also use the global password if you want to have all the nodes protected with one password. The global password is found in the settings. That of course prevents you from have groups of passwords since the one global password works everywhere.

However, you can also use the Node type password. That may require some refactoring of your website though, but the Node type based password allows you to create a group of nodes (of that type) that are protected by password (as defined in the Node type area.)

Thank you.
Alexis

Hello!

Thank you for your response!

I have the probleme that, I use the workaround (http://drupal.org/node/1448100#comment-5636516) to protect a view with articles. If i want to view a article i need to access first the protected node (view) and then one of the protected article. Both times i must insert the same password. I cant use the same Content Type.

Is the a solution for this problem?

Kind Regards klausbenni1.

The global password would work assuming you do not have more than one such section. With more than one section, a global password would work if you were to create multiple sub-sites, which would certainly be a pain... Otherwise, as this module stands, there is no solution to this problem.

Thank you.
