Trying to limit access to custom profile but it is available to everybody!
April 24, 2010, 08:16:21 pm
Using 3.1.4 and Drupal 6.16.

I have setup a custom profile for entering new contact data.

I have "Limit listings to a specific Group" set to a group called Administrators.

The problem is, that EVERYBODY, even anonymous users (not logged in) have access to this form. I have not changed the default permissions in Drupal for an anonymous user, so they access to Profiles and Forms, but I would think there should be some way to limit access to each individual profile form!

Have I missed a step somewhere? Anybody know what I did wrong?

Thanks

Eileen

You can increase the access to a specific profile via ACL but not restrict it. You need to remove the drupal permission & add specific permissions back in using the ACL

Ok, so the Drupal permissions overrides the ACL permissions?

What if I have other forms or profiles that DO require anonynous access? Can ACL be used to grant permissions to anonymous users as well?

Thanks

Eileen: Is that a yes to both questions?

The user gets the more open of the two permissions.

Yes to the second question
