Hi,

I have a forum and using the Taxonomy Access Control module I've done some permission adjustments. In some forums, only a specific role (say advanced users) can post forum topics, but everybody can comment in every forum. This works great.

The problem is, even if the authenticated user cannot post to a forum she will see the "Post new Forum Topic" link on top of that forum (under the forum title). I want to get rid of these links if the user cannot create a forum topic in that forum. How do I accomplish this?

Thanks in advance

Sorry to bump this again, but I could not find anything regarding this so far. Any ideas?

I found http://drupal.org/node/119875 quite useful about this issue. But it does not cover the problem I'm trying to solve.

I probably need to use user_access to hide the link (that's the only way I can think of now). But I cannot find the proper "string" to pass to this function. Maybe something like "taxonomy create node"? Still searching.

In my set up, only members can post to the forum, yet the add link is still there, it just gives then a useless empty drop down menu, any easy way without adding templates to get rid of this useless and confusing add link?
