Yes, that was the idea. Though it may not that simple because

- you'd also need a link to the full forum if you wanted to see all topics, but some viewers, esp. when the page is in a portfolio page and not in a page of the group where the forum is in, can't see it.
- how much can others see of your forum topic when they are not members of the group or when the group is not public? Could a group admin put restrictions on which topics can be embedded into pages to preserve privacy? Essentially, if you allow the embedding of any forum topic, a group's content can be made accessible to others without the group members /discussion forum participants knowing. They may not be wanting this to happen esp. when it is a private / controversial discussion.
- if a forum topic can be embedded, can you respond directly in the block or are you taken to the actual forum? Those that are not members of the group would not be able to respond, but just see the discussion.

Title:
  More flexibility for forum page

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  from Simha Bode:

  As admin I would like to see the ability to edit a forum page like any
  other page, i.e. having the ability to add images or text blocks. I
  think that forums pages should be like another, rather than having
  only 1 text block to write what the forum is about it should be fully
  modular page layout with addable blocks.
