forum_access 7.x-1.2

This is version 1.2 of Forum Access for Drupal 7.

Forum Access requires the current ACL and Chain Menu Access API 2.x modules.

If you are already running Forum Access 1.1, then there is no advantage (nor any risk) in updating to 1.2. The only difference between the two is that 1.2 provides a smoother update path by only requesting CMA 2.0 but not requiring it. Nevertheless, you should upgrade CMA to 2.0 because the new version is more robust with other third-party modules that do odd things with menus.

Changes since 1.1:
- #1775204: Avoid crashing the site if FA encounters CMA 1.x (when the upgrade instructions aren't being followed).

Changes since 1.0:
Enhancements:
- #1757616: Switch to 2.x branch of Chain Menu Access API module.
Bugs fixed:
- #1768330: Remove the broken D5 Legacy Mode which never worked for D7.
- #1701504: Give moderators access to the administrative node properties and add tests.
- #1706040: Avoid crashing in the presence of content_access.module.

Note: The devel_node_access (DNA) module, which is part of the Devel module, provides an in-depth view into the inner workings of node access, especially if you enable its debug mode at admin/settings/devel#edit-devel-node-access-debug-mode and its second block. This is a big help for understanding the forces that control access to any given node.
