Aaron.

1) We are working on this as a 2) part of the cronjob.


We decided not to assign the files uploaded in a group to a certain user, instead we will make the cron delete them, IF and only IF they aren't used in a view any longer.

The reason we don't want to assign the file to a user is that if there
is more than one user who uses the group-file in their view and the
'owner' deletes it the other user will 'lose' the file in their view.

In the future we might consider assigning the file to a user if he is
the only one using the file and the file added doesn't exceed the their
quota.

I'll keep you updated

Title:
  Files within a group aren't deleted after deleting the group

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If you create a group that contains any files (e.g. image, file) and
  then delete that group you should see a warning message. In addition,
  the files are not deleted although the group is (or marked as deleted)

  To reproduce (Mahara master):

  1.- Click on the 'Group' tab and create a group
  2.- Click on the 'Files' tab and add a file or image
  3.- Delete the group and you should see the warning. To check that the added files/images weren't deleted you can check out the 'artefact_file_files' table.

  Is this a bug or is it an intended behaviour? If it is a bug I could
  provide a patch for review.

  
  Cheers,
  Moises
