Description
Hi,
- I can't find the following path mentioned under the documentation: 'Configure user permissions in administer >> User management >> Access control >> Feedback, I looked through every User Management menu in my standard Drupal6.6 install.
- Initially the Feedback block is just floating on every page (see attached image): i can submit feedback through that and can see it in: Reports > Feedback messages (sent ok both as admin, and as authenticated user after setting module permissions)
- After allocating the Feedback form block to a sidebar (Zen sub-theme) using 'admin/build/block' I got an access error afterwards
- I tried allocating the Feedback form block again, this time there was no resulting access error, however the Feeback block (which I had retitled using the inbuilt config) was still floating over the entire page at the right (see 2nd attached image)
Glad for advice, and thanks for developing the module, looks promising if I can just sort this GUI problem out.

I found this relevant issue:
#285972: Feedback doesn't play nicely with Zen Classic Theme
However please don't mark this as just a duplicate yet, I would like some feedback on the access control doc problem, thanks.

Hi, I tried all of the patches at #285972: Feedback doesn't play nicely with Zen Classic Theme against 6.x-2.0 and they all failed (would not apply).
I would really appreciate a ZEN-friendly update for this useful module.
Lots of people use Zen and might appreciate your effort, too. Thanks.

Hi, I managed to get it placed ok in its allocated block in a ZEN sub-theme using this CSS override in my subtheme.css:
div#block-feedback-form
{
position: static;
}
Please note that I'd still appreciate some feedback on access control settings, and also if possible on assigning a CAPTCHA.

Please try the latest development snapshot first and report back whether your issue is already fixed in there.

Hi, thanks for your attention to this. I will however for now proceed with my CSS-based solution, once my new site is up I may find time to test the devel snap and will report back.

Sorry, do you mean the access controls matter is addressed with the new devel snap ?

Sorry, the README.txt was outdated. I've committed attached patch now. "Access control" has been renamed to "Permissions" in Drupal 6.
