Have added a patch dealing with the indexing of public forums / forum posts
https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/2768/

Still need to sort out making elasticsearch available for use to non
logged in members so that the public can actually search the public
forums

Title:
  public group forum info do not show up in elasticsearch

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently in mahara if one creates a group and marks it as a public
  group and adds entries to the forum these entries can only be found in
  a search by members of the group.

  They should be able to be found by anyone that is allowed to view the
  group's forum.

  To test:
  - Have elasticsearch turned on
  - Create a group and tick the 'Publicly viewable group' 
  - Add some topics / replies in the forum section
  - Search for * and you should see your topics / replies in the search results

  Log in as another user (not a member of the group)
  - You can navigate the the group eg interaction/forum/index.php?group=[id of group] and see the forum
  - Search for * and you do not see the topics / replies in the search results

  Also there is a problem with elasticsearch where you need to be logged
  in to use it which shouldn't be the case for finding info on public
  forums
