[Bug 1111357] Re: Anonymous forum posting

 

Another use case: performance appraisal by a committee so they can give
feedback, but it is not revealed who the feedback came from. We already
have the function to hide group members for that reason.

Title:
  Anonymous forum posting

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  New Feature Request
  Provide an option within group forums for the adminstrator to set a forum as anonymous so that user id isn't pulled through to display on the forum.

  Use case - for support groups where users may be put off asking for
  help if others can see who they are. This would cover a range of
  scenarios, from technical support (eg user doesn't know how to do
  basic computing tasks) through to personal / confidential areas such
  as disability support, gay/lesbian student society, or groups for
  topics such as stress management. Having the option of anonymous
  posting would enable users to ask questions and receive answers in
  confidence.

  May want to consider an optional setting within anonymous forum where
  only forum moderators are allowed to reply to a message - as well as
  having option for anyone to reply or post.

  Regards, Gordon.
