Nodes of the Realm: Managing content access

Using Drupal’s built-in node grants and realm access system, you can control which users or user roles can perform different operations such as view, update, and delete on a per node basis. You can apply similar access control to non-node entities via access hooks. 

This session will take a look into how access control works in Drupal, methods and techniques to customize access control, and things to look out for when dealing with access control in general.

Agenda:

• What are Node Grants and Realms?
• How to create Node Grants and Realms
• How to deny Node access
• How to control access for non-node entities
• Alternative methods to control access based on referenced content
• Gotchas with access control
