LS mirodietiker,
You are creating a fine module, tnx for that.
I stumbled into it after some conflicts between Content Access (http://drupal.org/project/content_access) and some other OG access modules (resulting for instance in some double entries for non-admin users). Running it on my dev-site, it seems pretty good to do what it's supposed to do, giving access to content of a certain type to group roles of a certain type.
What I would like to see, however, is a kind of 'per-node' override permission.
At this moment the restrictions are set on the whole content type, but the aforementioned feature gives a node-creator a option to override the default setting and publish it to the default public of that content type.
I assume it would work like an override of the 'Override OG Subscriber records' option on the settingspage of your module. When this option is checked the access permissions are applied, but there are times (as mentioned before) one would go around that.
Can you tell me;
- If I'm right about my assumption that per-node overriding like Content Access can be done this way?
- Do you consider this as a useful extension of your module would you consider to implement such a feature?
Best,
VinceW

miro_dietikerThe subject of this module is to bring OGUR to content access.
If we're following the idea in OG to post a message as public (without applying group permissions -- i'm not sure if we support this currently!) you're right - we might should also allow to disable overrides on a per-node basis.
However: We're trying to keep options very low for users since permission settings on node edit forms are confusing users very soon.
Patches welcome as long as they provide admin options and they don't clutter every UI (node add/edit).
