Menu Access Blocks for Custom Menus

The current release only provide blocks for existing menus.. any additional menus would need to be added via programming a module or adding the menus to your chosen theme.

When editing node content the system should filter out menus that the current user does not have rights to access. This may be because you have administer menu enabled.. the security defined in the menu access module is overridden by the global Drupal administer menus permission. That administer menus permission means the user/role can access all menus.

Here's a rewrite of menu_access_block() that works with custom menus:

function menu_access_block($op = 'list', $delta = 0, $edit = array()) {
	global $user;
	$menus = menu_access_get_menus();

	if ($op == 'list') {
		$blocks = array();
		foreach ($menus as $name => $title) {
			$blocks[$name]['info'] = t('Menu Access - ') . check_plain($title);
			// Menu blocks can't be cached because each menu item can have
			// a custom access callback.
			$blocks[$name]['cache'] = BLOCK_NO_CACHE;
		}
		return $blocks;
	}
	else if ($op == 'view') {
		$block = array();
		if ($menu = menu_access_menu_tree($delta)) {
			if (menu_access_access('access menus', NULL, FALSE, $delta)) {
				$block['subject'] = $user->uid ? check_plain($user->name) : check_plain($menus[$delta]);
				$block['content'] = $menu;
				return $block;
			} else {
				return '';
			}
		}
		else {
			return '';
		}
	}
}

thanks for the patch, as soon as I get my CVS account reactivated I will issue a new release to the dev branch for testing. I have several other patches and feature enhancement that I would like to roll into the next release.

Hello, I have added your code to the dev branch, please download the branch and let me know if you have any problems. I plan to add several fixes and a few features in the coming week/month and if all works out I'll issue a new release (much overdue).
