Doesn't work with Drupal 6.6

I am using this module with Drupal 6.6 and it so far I have had no problems with it.

Did you rebuild the permissions after installing it or have you done so since?

The module works fine with 6.x.

Rebuilding the permissions as described by rs_hull_uk is very important. Also, you might want to explain exactly how you have set it up: what user permissions have you set for a given role, what npbr permissions for a given content type and node, etc. Do you have any other access control modules enabled that might be interfering, or is this a clean drupal 6.x install? You also might want to explain how you are testing it. The more detailed and relevant information you give, the better the response will be.

Thank you so much for replying.

I've messed around with the module and understand it a bit better now.

I created a Page and only authorized Silver Members to view it - and promoted it to the front page.

I assumed that when a non Silver Member saw the front page the Page would be gone - it shows. However, trying to edit or view more detail does return a "Not authorized" error.

However, a similar Page does not behave the same - it too is only for Silver Members.

But now I assume the module works and will spend more time investigating.

Thanks again and I'll report my findings later.

This might be related -- and the answer might be "so, don't do that!" but here goes:

Summary: It seems that View Own causes Node Privacy ByRole not to work.

* Drupal 6.6, Node Privacy ByRole 6.x-1.3
* View Own 6.x-1.1

(I wanted view_own to fix a set of circumstances where users can edit their own nodes, but can't view the node page, which obviously doesn't make sense; and there isn't a default permission for viewing own.)

If View Own is on, Node Privacy ByRole permissions are ignored. Example:

* I create a page and set Node Privacy ByRole permissions to allow only administrator users to view it.
* If View Own is not on, it works fine: Only users in the role "administrator" can view the page.
* If View Own is on, unauthenticated users can view the page and related menu items.
* This is true even if I turn off all the View Own permissions in the permissions page for unauthenticated users.
* Rebuilding the permissions doesn't help.
* If I turn off View Own, Node Privacy ByRole permissions work fine, immediately, without rebuilding permissions.

i think this conflict is correct, have not tried it myself -also read about a conflict between node privacy and taxonomy access control (which is documented)
