Filter by node type

Crell - May 13, 2007 - 00:46

The core filters system allows an admin to restrict the type of input format available to a user by user role. It does not, however, allow the admin to restrict the available input formats by node type. This module fixes that. It provides a simple checkbox-based interface where an administrator can restrict what input filters are available to what nodes. These rules are applied after the role-based restrictions, so it can never offer more input formats than the default role-based input formats would.

If after all limits are applied there are no input formats available for a given user on a given node type, they will still have access to the node add/edit page but will not be able to successfully submit the page. I do not completely like this method. Patches to provide better handling of this case are welcome.
