Hi,

I'm using a taxonomy to divide a site into sections like this:

  • Extranet
    • News
    • Documents
    • ...
  • Community
    • News
    • Forum
    • ...

I have set up two roles, community_member and extranet_member and I'm using Taxonomy Access Lite to control access so that extranet members can access everything while community members only can access the Community section.

Now as you understand I don't want the community members to post news in the extranet section. So what I would like to be able to do, is to restrict selection of the extranet terms so that only extranet members can publish storys with those terms.
In other words, extranet members should be able to select all terms in the taxonomy, and the community members should only be able to select the ones under Community.

Is there a way to accomplish this?

I have looked around for a module to do this but I can't find one.

(Oh, and if possible, I don't want to create separate content types.)

thanks

I'm afraid you'll have to do with D5 for now then or use an alpha/beta release of TAC. I consider it extremely unlikely that anyone will duplicate TAC functionality just to have it for D6 until TAC is updated. Most Drupal developers still use D5, and probably still will for a few more months.
