[Bug 789358] Re: When single view / page is submitted to a group, the entie collection becomes accessible

 

Tutors complained bitterly to me that their group view had hundreds of
submitted pages to scroll through in order to view submissions.(Students
were asked to submit all pages as we were finding some had edited access
on single views in collections which messed up the submit one view to
see the entire collection strategy.) The ability to view all views in a
single collection while only submitting one was much better, but the
ability to submit collections would be the best solution. Then it's
clear to everyone exactly what's being submitted. For assignments
collections are much more likely to be used than single views.

Title:
  When single view / page is submitted to a group, the entie collection
  becomes accessible

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When you submit a page to a controlled group (no other access rights
  are given), the entire collection becomes visible. However, only the
  page that was submitted is locked.

  As the teacher can see the entire collection, he may think that the
  other pages are also locked.I think, both students and teachers need
  to be made aware that.

  The student could see a message along the line: You have submitted
  <title of the page>. As it is part of collection <collection title>,
  this collection becomes visible. However, you can continue editing the
  other pages in the collection.

  The teacher should get a notice on the pages that have not been
  submitted but are visible because they are part of the collection that
  these pages are still editable, e.g.: This page has not been submitted
  and its content can change. It is visible because it is part of
  collection <collection title>.

  There is a wishlist item for submitting an entire collection:
