[Bug 624459] [NEW] Group views should have the same artefacts as normal views

 

Public bug reported:

It would be good, in my opinion to have the usual artefacts available to
populate a group view that each individual has.

On the group homepage I can hardly put anything except external feeds
and video. What if I want to display an internal image, e.g. the club
logo?

It would also be good to have the other artefacts. A group view could be
used to collect information about all group members, e.g. skills, goals,
other profile info. Students could also use it as a one-stop place to
show all their internal Mahara blog posts (similar to Pageflakes etc.).

Therefore, I would not limit the artefacts to the currect ones.

It is also not possible to copy a view that contains blog posts.
Currently, that makes sense because groups don't have blogs as
artefacts. If the blog posts retain the "posted by [the original
author]" (which IMHO should be a requirement when copying views already
due to antiplagiarism), then there is also no question about ownership
of a blog post.
