Description
Hey, Pretty new to this so apologies if this is just a bit of idiocy.
I've just upgraded to the latest release 6.8-2.1.
Previously, I was using the option to "restrict all pages except", adding some nodes into a box in th secure pages admin section.
Now there appear only to be force authentication on restricted pages, however no option for all pages except and no box for adding any nodes, terms.
any ideas?
Many thanks in advance.

We now let Drupal's access control system determine which pages to restrict access to, and Secure Site simply provides an alternative to the default "Access denied" page.
There is one case where that is not sufficient, and it is addressed in issue 354219.
#2
How do you set which pages are restricted?
#3
Secure Site lets Drupal handle which pages are restricted. If a log-in is required to view the page, Secure Site will restrict access.
#4
Thanks Darren. Sorry if I am being dense, but what is the best way to restrict access to a page? Using a separate module?
#5
The best way is to use the permissions page under User management.
#6
This module claims it can restrict access to certain pages. I would like to restrict access to a specific page (one node not the entire content type). Is that possible?
#7
The description has been fixed. To do what you want, you must make the node accessible only to logged-in users. You will need another module to do that.
#8
So which module should we use for this?
I got the page I wanted to secure to ask for a password but the problem is it never accepts the username and password I set. I used the Control Access module. Then I tried using only the Control Access module. I disabled and then uninstalled Secure Site and then the login would work with a user I created but it would redirect to 403_securesite even though I disabled and uninstalled Secure Site!
#9
Try Content Access. The 403 redirect is set at admin/settings/error-reporting.
#10
I'm sorry, Content Access was what I meant. That's the one I'm using. I still can't get it to authenticate with the username and password set in Secure Site, though. And I know the 403 settings are under that path but it shouldn't be a 403 error at all and it definitely should not say Secure Site when the module is disabled and uninstalled.
#11
403 means access denied. Reset the error reporting settings page to its defaults if it still redirects to securesite_403.
