Hi, would it be possible to change the edit fields where you enter a users name to remove and grant access to either a list of users in a drop down menu or listing them with check boxes? I know this would not work very well for a large site, but I have a site with about 30 to 50 users and it would be nice if I could just pick them from a menu to grant per node access.

Thanks.

No, sorry, we need to have a mechanism that works for everyone.

But it's an autocomplete textbox, so you need to type only the first letter and wait a second to get a list of all user names that start with that letter. That should come pretty close to what you're asking for, no?

Sorry to be opening this up again! but providing the option to have a checkbox or select list would make it possible to do multiple additions at the same time and also make it more easier for the person adding the users, no? And in my case I also need to add a condition which will filter the users available to ACL (users flagged by current user). Would that be possible?

Thanks

You can form_alter the embedded ACL form and replace the autocomplete textfield with whatever you want. If you need to filter the list, you must to do that anyway.
