<p>Hi! I had the idea for this module last week while working on my current project. Actually, the client didn't request I make, but the issue was bothering me, so I wrote this on my time. In the project, there are 22 content types, but only three are ever accessed on aliased node/[nid] URLs. The rest are visible within panels or views and shouldn't be directly accessed. Problem is, Search indexes and lists everything. There are modules available to block content types from indexing or search, but I want the data available. This module allows nodes to be indexed and displayed in search, but when accessed the anonymous user is redirected to the correct location/URL. A hook_url_outbound_alter() function is included, but disabled by default. When enabled, the displayed URLs are also corrected.</p>
<p>I've wanted to get project permission since the wild west days of CVS, but I haven't been able to focus on it until now. Most modules I write are theming customization, and custom functionality for client sites. Whenever reasonable write them so they could be cleaned up and made into real d.o. projects. This is the first (of hopefully many) that I've been able to spend the time on.</p>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Some content/nodes should never be viewed directly; only visible through something else such as Views, or Panels. Per-content type or per-node, this module denies access to <em>node/[nid]</em> URLs while allowing the content to stay published and otherwise viewable.</p>
<h3>Status</h3>
<p>The 7.x-1.1 & master branches are the current version.</p>
<h3>Functionality (7.x-1.1)</h3>
<ul>
<li>Creates a permission per content type which when disabled denies node view to the specified role.</li>
<li>Adds an option to content type edit forms for administrators to select the result of a direct node view.</li>
<li>Node view options are Allow, Access Denied, and Redirect.</li>
<li>Redirect URL/path can use tokens, an anchors or get variables.</li>
<li>"Denied action setting per-node" in content type settings. Node default is to use content type default.</li>
<li>hook_url_outbound_alter() implementation to rewrite URLs of denied nodes to the redirect URL.</li>
<li>Simpletests for content type settings, node settings, and hook_url_outbound_alter().</li>
</ul>
