Hello,

I have a role setup with access to add, edit, and view a specific node. On the admin bar (admin module) I have "Content Management >> Create Content >> MyNode", but I can't have "Content >> List", to do so I have to provide the role with "administer nodes" permissions. In doing this the role now has access to admin all nodes, which I don't want. But I do want them to see "Content >> List".

Any thoughts?

Second question, the user can edit their own node content, but node content already existing they can not edit? They have "edit any nodename content". Any idea why they can't edit?

Thank you!!

You could use a module like Content Management Filter to provide an alternative content interface. http://drupal.org/project/cmf
Or - the way I'd probably do it - create your own content management interface using Views + Views Bulk Operations. (Much more flexible, and you can use those modules for other purposes)

Regarding your second question - one problem I've had in the past was with input formats. If those past nodes were created using say the 'Full HTML' input format but the current user can't use that input format, they won't see Edit links.

Great input, thank you! One question, where can I find the permissions for input format?

Thank you

default input format is set in adminsiter -> input formats

if you want finer grained control investigate the better_formats.module
