forum_access 7.x-1.0-alpha2

This is ALPHA2 of Forum Access for Drupal 7.

It has all the functionality of the D6 version plus extensive tests. Still missing is support for unpublished nodes and comments.

We do not recommend installing it on a production site, but we encourage you to test it and provide feedback (both good and bad!) in the issues queue. See #809404: Forum Access for D7 for details.

Forum Access requires the current ACL and Chain Menu Access API modules. If you're running ALPHA1 then be sure to install and enable Chain Menu Access API before updating to ALPHA2!

Changes since ALPHA1:
Enhancement:
- Use the Chain Menu Access API.
Bugs fixed:
- Fix some minor bugs.
- Add missing assertFieldEnabled()/assertFieldDisabled() function that haven't made it into core (see #882564).
- Remove the need for the hook_menu_get_item_alter() patch.
- Some code clean-up, no functional changes.
- Fix invalid use of t().
- #964762: Fix undefined variable notice for $na_modules.

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/config/development/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.
