Description
Alright, I have a functionality question.
I have installed the module.
Enabled the module through the module interface.
Created a group that does not include anonymous users.
On page content nodes checked the box for this group under the access section.
Yet anonymous users are still able to view this node. Is there some step I have not done and if so is there a users manual/documentation I can view that describes said steps.
Thank You

#1
The permissions have not been rebuilt and by default Drupal is configured to allow all users to access all nodes.
To fix this issue you need to rebuild the permissions by going to administer > content management > post settings and at the top will be a new option to rebuild permissions.
This is an instruction which is displayed when the module is enabled.
#2
Is there a fully detailed installation manual somewhere, the INSTALL.txt file included in the module does not mention this step as well as I have seen mentioned something about running a database script on installation (or a button to set up the database).
#3
Alright, I have another question. My nodes are working now so that anonymous users cannot see the nodes, but they can still see the menu items. Does simple access not hide the menu items as well?
#4
No it doesn't. This is actually a Drupal 5 issue which has been fixed in D6 with the new menu system.
#5
All right thank you for the help. I do have a new question.
Here are my two groups:
members secretary, member, blog user, admin
non-members authenticated user, anonymous user
Everything was working well, pages that I set up earlier show for the correct groups. But now when I create/edit a page and set the correct group, the page gives the "You are not authorized to access this page" message to all groups. Also these new/edited pages do not show up on the "These nodes have been set as "only viewable by" certain Simple Access groups." page but the nodes that work correctly do appear here.
Thank You

Is there a better place for me to ask questions regarding setting up Simple Access?
#7
Automatically closed -- issue fixed for two weeks with no activity.

ok. i had the same problem (been struggling all day on it)...and by re-building the node permissions it now works..this information was NOT in the instructions...there is no 'Setup Database' button either...please ammend the install.txt file...otherwise thanks on the module.
also don't forget to refresh your drupal cache as this threw me for a while as well, as page was still viewable to public: Administer >> Site configuration >> Performance ...just 'save configuration' to refresh.

None of the modules work
I did everything asked
but the anonymous still have access to a content that should not if I copy the link of that content and paste on a browser without login in
here is the site http://www.painexam.com
simple access doesn't work
content access doesn't work

Look at #1.
This module works. The author miss out the final step in the ReadMe.txt.
Thanks for this module.
