I use the module 'simpleaccess' to limit the access per node basis to certain user roles, and it works like a charm with all my nodes and nodetypes. Unfortunately except with tribune nodes :(

I don't know whether this is a bug or just a feature request ;) but I'd find it very useful to have an easy way to restrict the access to certain tribunes.

This is because tribune_access trumps all node access modules by returning a check on the 'View' operation.

This is not best practice in Drupal coding. See blog.module, for instance --> http://api.drupal.org/api/function/blog_access/6

Node modules should normally not return a value for $op == 'view'.

Find these lines in tribune.module and just comment it out for now. I don't have time for a patch.

    case 'view':
      return user_access('read tribunes');

Title: tribune doesn't work with simpleaccess module » Tribune bypasses node access modules

Better title, this breaks OG, Domain Access, and TAC as well.

Well, that should be fixed. But is it me or is Drupal's permissions system not very flexible ?
Or maybe the documentation is hidden somewhere, but I can't seem to find a way to allow people to choose who can post stuff in their tribunes.
