Hello,

I have a 2 years old site. It was running on Drupal 4.7. Lately I upgraded to 6.2
I was using SimpleAccess module, but since it's not updated to 6, I deistalled it and put NodePrivacyByRole.
By default on my site anonymous users can't see any content. So I set defaults for content types, and rebuild node access through admin/content/node-settings

Now, I'm trying to change setting to some nodes by admin/content/node
I'm selecting many nodes and select 'Grant view to anonymous user' from the drop-down list.
And... it doesn't work :(

Only if I manually set view permision by editing particular node - that work fine.

Any help? How I can grant view permission for selected nodes?

Drupal 6.2 has some really ugly access bugs. If I had known about them, I wouldn't have released a stable version of this module yet. Waiting till 6.3 is out.

This issue should have been re-opened because it never really did work: http://drupal.org/node/153927

I'm putting a fix in for 5.x and 6.x today for the next release. 6.x won't look as nice as 5.x in the dropdown because 5.x was exploiting a global variable that's no longer available to the hook in 6.x to nest the options in the optgroups.
