Hi all,
We're developing an (simple) e-learning module for Drupal (we hope we can publish it in a few weeks). One important feature for us is to integrate some kind of forum into the system, so every course can have an associated forum for students/teachers to discuss.
However, each forum will only be available to students/teachers of its associated course. So we need to filter access to each forum.
So, the question is that we would like to integrate the forum.module but this one is based on vocabularies (taxonomy.module). The problem with that is that, AFAIK, there's no module which provides filtering capabilities and an API to give/remove permissions to users. Am I wrong? I think that Taxonomy Access Control Lite (http://drupal.org/project/tac_lite) is not an option (it hasn't got an API).
Other way could be use nodeforum (http://drupal.org/project/nodeforum), but it depends on nodecomment (http://drupal.org/project/nodecomment) and that module is incompatible with comment.module. Anyway, it's an option to try.
Thanks in advance.
