Allows users see one type or node but not other one

Posted by shiolo on October 22, 2009 at 2:55am

Hi, how can I control to let user access one type of node but not another one? In permisions I don't see a permision as "View Forum Post node" for example.
Also I am using webforms, and when i create a webform i can control which users can access to that node, but i choose that anonymous users can acces but when i try they can´t, what's the problem?
Thanks!

You have some options

You have some options depending on what your are trying to do:

I use these 2 a lot:

http://drupal.org/project/content_access
http://drupal.org/project/menu_per_role

For Forums
http://drupal.org/project/forum_access
and
http://drupal.org/project/acl

Not tried this one but worth a mention
http://drupal.org/project/image_gallery_access

This one is great for different front pages per user
http://drupal.org/project/front

Then there is the access settings in views:
http://drupal.org/project/views

And specifically for webform there a bunch a tweaks to hunt for to make it accessible to the correct roles. I've done 3 go rounds of "grammy style" voting with webform, qualifying both nominees and voters. It will work, you just have to incorporate at least Content Access and maybe Menu Per Role and the access settings in Views depending on what your trying to get done.
