Hello
I face an issue with access control on taxonomy.
The site I am working on will have many branches controled by various users.
The users should be able to add and modify taxonomy term in the branch they are in charge of,
but should not be able to change anything on other branches.
The Taxonomy Access Control module seems to fullfil part of this goal: I can use it to restrict
on what taxonomy terms a group may create nodes. But it cannot be used to prevent a user from adding
a taxonomy term anywhere in the tree.
I gave a try to another module, Private Taxonomy. With this module I can forbid a user from adding
a taxonomy term on a branch it does not own. But this is not very satisfaying, since that modules does not
know what a group is: the access control must be set individually for each user of each group, and for each
term. This is rather painful.
Is there another module that would solve my problem? Or perhaps I missed some important functionnality in
Taxonomy Access Control/Private Taxonomy? There is also the possibility that I took a wrong approach, and
that this is not the way this problem should be solved. Any hint will be welcome, as I am running out of
solutions to explore.
The only solution I have for now is to restrict taxonomy handling to the webmaster. That means a branch manager
