Greetings,

It would really be helpful if this module allowed me to restrict access to an edit page such as:

user/*/edit/Officer+Profile

The page above is a user profile page with a Category of "Officer Profile" that has several fields I want visible, but not editable, except by the administrative user. I would like to prevent edit access to any user number, therefore the user/* rather than user/2 is provided above.

Thank you for your consideration.

Seems to be an issue with the + in the path name... works fine if Category is shortened to one word. I will test this more later... in the meantime, I'm changing this from a feature request to a minor bug.

Thanks for a great module!

The path parsing code is exactly the same as used in the Block module. It uses regular expressions, where a + and a * have special meanings.

You could maybe restrict your path match to user/*/edit/Officer* ?

Now that you brought up regular expressions, it makes perfect sense. The following expressions work just fine:

/user/*/edit/Officer*Profile
/user/*/edit/Officer*

Maybe you can mention "regular expressions", or "use * in place of spaces/special characters" somewhere in the module example text.

Thanks for the clarification. I'm still looking at Drupal from an end-user usability point of view and couldn't understand why a perfectly valid Drupal page name would not work in the module.
