This module changes your forum administration page to allow you to set forums private. You can control what user roles can view, edit, delete, and post to each forum. You can also give each forum a list of users who have administrative access on that forum (AKA moderators).
This module requires the ACL module in order to function. The D7 version also requires the Chain Menu Access API module.
Forum Access is compatible with the core Forum module, Advanced Forum, and Content Access, Domain Access as well as all other well-behaved node access modules.
Forum Access for Drupal 7
We now have BETA2; see #809404-23: Forum Access for D7 — BETA2 for details.
Open issue outside of Forum Access (common to all node access modules!):
- Drupal Core 6 / Views2: Another db_rewrite_sql() issue causes DISTINCT queries (frequently used in Views2) to fail, when any node access module is enabled (see #284392: db_rewrite_sql causing issues with DISTINCT). The fix was committed in #444 and appeared in 6.16. However, see #735120: Fix changes to db_distinct_field() in D6.16 / PostgreSQL and #681760: Try to improve performance and eliminate duplicates caused by node_access table joins.
