Overview
|
|
12
|
--------
|
|
13
|
|
|
14
|
ACL has no UI of its own and unless some other module uses it, it won't appear
|
|
15
|
to add anything to your site. Only bother with this module if some other module
|
|
16
|
tells you to.
|
|
17
|
|
|
18
|
For client modules that want to implement by-user node access in a robust and
|
|
19
|
compatible way, ACL provides the required functionality.
|
|
20
|
For a sample implementation see the Forum Access module:

Upgrading from Drupal 6
|

|
-----------------------
|
|
37
|

|
Update to the latest D6 release, then upgrade as outlined in the Drupal 7 docs.

Troubleshooting
|
|
44
|
---------------
|
|
45
|
|
|
46
|
Even though ACL does not do anything by its own, Core recognizes it as a node
|
|
47
|
access module, and it requires you to rebuild permissions upon installation.
|
|
48
|
|
|
49
|
The client module is fully responsible for the correct use of ACL. It is very
|
|
50
|
unlikely that ACL should cause errors.
|
|
51
|
|
|
52
|
If there is a node access problem, or if you intend to implement a module that
|
|
53
|
uses ACL, we highly recommend to use the Devel Node Access module as outlined
|
|
54
|
in the step-by-step instructions in
|
|
55
|
http://drupal.org/node/add/project-issue/acl
