This is a port of the README file within the Workbench Module. It may need to be adapted to fit the Handbook style.

Some helpful tips to make answering questions easier.

  • Users who are not assigned to an editorial section may not be allowed to create content on the site.
  • Editorial access applies to _all_ content types in a given section.
  • Editorial access assigned to an individual user is not removed if that user's role is removed from an editorial section.
  • Role-based access is added dynamically to all users in the role.
  • When viewing content as a user with the 'View Workbench Access information' permission, a message will be displayed at the top of the page indicating the assigned section and whether or not the user may edit the page.
  • For advanced access debugging, download the Devel module (http://drupal.org/project/devel) and enable the Devel Node Access module and the 'Devel Node Access by User' block. This block will output the access control rules for recent visitors to any content.
