Module: Path Access Author: Mike Carter D6 port: CSÉCSY László Description =========== The path_access module gives site administrators an additional layer of access control to all pages of a Drupal site. Benefits ======== Although a lot of the Drupal modules provide some degree of access control permissions it never covers all possible requirements users have. Path_access provides the means to restrict pages based on their path alias - meaning you can lock out certain user role groups from whole sections of a site using wildcards. Installation ============ Simply copy path_access folder to the /sites/all/modules directory of your Drupal installation, and enable it in the administration tools. Note that path_access is an extension to the path module, which must also be enabled. Details ======= When access is denied to certain users they will see the 403 error 'Access Denied' page which you have defined in the Drupal core settings. This can be changed at ?q=admin/settings/error-reporting By default the module will allow both anonymous and authenticated users to access pages as usual. Settings ======== You can configure what pages are visible/not visible to each of your user roles from the Drupal Users Administration section. Visit ?q=admin/user/pathaccess to edit the settings for each role group. Page visibility configuration is carried out in exactly the same way as block visibility in Drupal core.
