Respect content/node access permissions [#1216234]

Dear Maintainer,

I am building a site, that has blogs which can be posted public or only within a group. Will this module respect private posts and therefore no publish to twitter / or would there be an option for having to opt-in vs opt-out? Have been looking for this option, did not find it.

Thanks a lot in advance
regards
ChrisZZ

You know, I'm really not sure! I don't have my head wrapped around the entire codebase yet, but I will check into that for you.

This is only a partial answer: the module currently checks "!empty($node->status)" which means it won't post to Twitter if the node is not published. However, it's not checking to see if (for example) an Anonymous user can view the node, so I don't think it will correctly detect a published but "private" node.

Maybe this use case could be addressed by selecting a user role that should be able to see a node in order to control whether to post to Twitter, defaulting to Anonymous. This seems like an edge case, so I'm not positive whether it'll be addressed in the way I'm describing, but I do think there are likely to be other issues around this.

Thanks a lot michaek, I really appreciate it! I also like the way you want to implement it.

Edge Case? Just think in groups, where you easily mix public with private content...

I think, that an option to either use opt-in or opt-out would be very useful!
