Hi All,

I am trying to build a taxonomy in such a way that a group of users will be able to access a taxonomy term.
Ex:
taxo_term1 will be accessed by role1 users
taxo_term2 will be accessed by role2 users
taxo_term3 will be accessed by role3 users
taxo_term4 will be accessed by role4 users

and role1 users will be able to modify or edit or add taxonomy terms under only taxo_term1 in same way role2 users under taxo_term2 and role3 users under taxo_term3.

I have achieved up to here by Taxonomy Access Control module. The problem I am facing here is if a new taxonomy term is added then the permissions have to be set manually on newly added taxonomy term.

My requirement is if a taxonomy term is added under taxo_term2 then automatically all the role2 user only must be able to access this new term.

Please suggest me is this possible in Drupal. If yes how can I achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

seems to me the best place for this question is in the taxonomy access control module issue queue as a feature request. I don't see any feature in TAC or other modules that will aid in your request. Thus custom code, in the form of a patch to TAC, may be the only way forward.

Does clearing the cache or running cron not update the permissions? If not you could try using the Organic Groups module

Thanks for the reply Gazza.

Clearing cache or running cron did not work for me.
Can you please elaborate on using Organic Groups.

Check out the Organic Groups project page then you could use the Vocabulary and User roles modules to set permissions on any type of content and indeed vocabularies and taxonomy terms
