Description
In Drupal 5 I used to use Node Hierarchy in combination with NodeAccess to create intranet type of sections on public websites. I liked that it was possible to recursively change permissions on all children by changing permission of a parent. Also in Drupal 5 every newly created child node would automatically inherit permissions from a parent. This is no longer true in Drupal 6. Now every time I create a new child I have to remember to set permissions properly. Maybe I missed something, but it seems that Node Hierarchy no longer integrates as well with NodeAccess module.

I would like update this as well, as I choose the Node Hierarchy and Node Access because of the integration. Now I did notice a disclaimer, http://drupal.org/node/302253, back in October 08, stating that Node Access compatibility has been removed in 6 until Node Access is updated. Well Node Access is updated and I did not see any warnings on the Node Hierarhy project page. Does any one has this working in Drupal 6?
Thanks.

I was looking through Version 5 to see if I could find the code that supported the recursive and new child node permissions, as describe above. I noticed the "Optional Node Access integration (REMOVED UNTILL NODE ACCESS IS UPDATED)", where is it removed to? I did not see any code commented out. I would like to start working on try to piece this functionality back together. Please advise.

I'm hoping to move over from Node Relativity and Node Relativity Access so that I can upgrade to v6. I'm basically looking for the ablity to automatically give the creator of parent nodes access to the children nodes (together with the creator of the children nodes).
Would Node Hierarchy and Nodeaccess (I'm assuming that one, as opposed to the slightly different Node_Access) give me this functionality? And if so, is it supported in v6?
thanks

Wilgrace,
Yes, combining Node Hierarchy and Nodeaccess(not Node_Access), will allow this functionality. The problem I am having, and and am sure other users, is that the access management settings in relationship with the child and parent nodes must be done manually.
What I have read so far, the Node Hierarchy module used to support a integration with nodeaccess whereby nodes created as children of parents would inherit permissions and would also recursively change permissions if they were to adjust.
I am guessing that nodeaccess development fell behind and integration with Node Hierarchy was dropped by the Node Hierarchy developer. Now it seems that nodeaccess is caught up I am desperately looking to contact anyone who could help reorganize the code that originally worked in version 5.

Thanks for replying - sounds like this is exactly what I'm looking for, as Node Relativity looks nowhere near being updated.
I second your desperate plea for full nodeaccess integration
#6
just curious if this is being worked on? it would be extremely helpful to have.

bump

Not to sound rude, but just curious if anyone is really working on this. I haven't had the time to closely look at the differences between 5 and 6 yet.
