  18. 1. Introduction

  19. 

  20. The Domain Strict module is a small extension with two purposes:

  21. 

  22. First, it changes the default Domain Access behavior.  This module

  23. makes the grants given to a user specific to the domains that the user

  24. is registered to see.  Normally, all users are granted the same permission

  25. to view content.  In the case of Domain Strict, individual users can

  26. only see content on domains that they belong to, or content that is

  27. assigned to 'all affiliates'.

  28. 

  29. Second, it shows module developers how to alter the behavior of

  30. the Domain Access module by using the API.  In this case, we only

  31. use the function hook_domaingrants() to change the default module

  32. behavior.

  33. 

  34. For developers looking to extend the Domain Access module, this

  35. small module is a guide.

  36. 

  37. See http://drupal.org/node/199846 for the history of this module.

  39. ----

  40. 2. Installation

  41. 

  42. The Domain Strict module comes with the Domain Access download.

  43. 

  44. To install, you simply enable the module at Admin > Modules.

  45. 

  46. No database tables are installed and the module itself has no

  47. configuration options.

  48. 

  49. ----

  50. 3.  Configuration

  51. 

  52. Since this module changes the way the Domain Access module behaves,

  53. you may want to alter some of the default Domain Access settings.

  54. 

  55. Specifically, read up on the 'Special page requests' section of the main

  56. README.

  57. 

  58. If you want this module to restrict all content viewing, you should:

  59. 

  60.   1) Set the 'Search settings' to the default value:

  61.       'Search content for the current domain only'

  62. 

  63.   2) Clear out any rules in the 'Special page requests' settings.

  64. 

  65. Both these options allow users to see all nodes on specific pages on

  66. any active domain.

  67. 

  68. ----

  69. 4.  Anonymous and Authenticated Users

  70. 

  71. Under Domain Strict, only authenticated users (those who have registered)

  72. are given any domain-specific privileges.

  73. 

  74. Anonymous users will only be able to view content that is assigned to "all

  75. affiliates."

  76. 

  77. As a result, enabling this module may cause content to disappear from your

  78. site for users who are not logged in.  This is by design.
