It would be great to extend Storm to add field level permissions. Per the discussion here: http://drupal.org/node/316613 there are certain fields that we may not want viewed/editable to certain people based on their role.

For example, If we were to allow for customers to create tickets, we dont want them to be able to view/edit the rate information.

I'm not sure if this is something that will end up in Storm core (the above feature request has been around since 08)... but i think it would be a great feature for Storm.

Hi,

sorry that i did not answer this issue. I had the hope that this issue will be fixed in Storm itself. But since October the issue is closed and has not been reopened. I agree with the opinion of juliangb that it would be better to use fields in core in Drupal 7, so fields become more flexible.

But there is still the requirement for Drupal 6. I'm not sure if we have the time to solve this issue because we have some other priorities at the moment. The best solution at the moment would be to use a custom module with hook_form_alter(), if the formfilter module (http://drupal.org/project/formfilter) does not fullfill your needs.

I leave this issue open to remind me to solve this problem when some time is left.
