I have created a Content Type 'Block', and created a node from it. I then used the resulting block in my page.

I have my permissions so that any authenticated users can edit content. Specifically they have permissions to create, delete or edit any (or their own) Block content (ie the content type Block).

As admin, when I open such a Block node directly (rather than just seeing the block) there is an Edit option. I can also go through Content Management>>Content>>List and then select 'edit' for the appropriate Block content.

As an authenticated user, I cannot. There is no Edit option on the node page, and if I select 'edit' from the Content>>List I get an 'Access Denied' page, with the message 'You are not authorized to access this page.'.

I've tried resetting permissions, removing and then re-adding permissions, etc. All the other content types work fine. Just this one doesn't...

I hope you can fix this as it is for this functionality that I set up NodeBlock - to allow my authorized users to edit this block.

Steps to reproduce (unable to test with default theme, etc):

1. Create a new content type Block and configure it to be a nodeblock type.
2. Create a new node from that content type
3. Assign your node to a region (using the admin/build/block page)
4. Change the permissions so that only authenticated users can edit/create/delete content.
5. Logout
6. Log in as authenticated user
6. Expected Behavior: Able to edit the node you created

I tried to reproduce your issue - following your steps. For me it is working, the authenticated user is able to edit that node.
But maybe did you use an input format which the authenticated user is not allowed to use (as I understand you created the node as admin, which has access to all input formats).
In that case the "access denied" error will occour.

That was the problem for me, thanks! Glad it was easy to fix. Such an easy thing to forget though, input formats! :D
