[Bug 1437929] [NEW] expired shared pages still display in groups

 

Public bug reported:

When a page is shared with a group it appears in Group Pages->Pages
shared with this group. If the page has a time restriction, it will
still show in Pages shared with this group even if the end date has
expired or if the start date is has not begun. The permission are
correct in that if a user who does not have permission to view the page
outside of the time restriction tries to access it, they cannot access
the page.

It would be better if Pages shared with this group only lists pages that
is accessible to group. This can be done by altering line 3997 in
./lib/view.php in function  get_sharedviews_data($limit=10, $offset=0,
$groupid)  from

WHERE a.group = ? AND m.member = ? AND (v.group IS NULL OR v.group !=
?);

to

WHERE a.group = ? AND m.member = ? AND (v.group IS NULL OR v.group != ?)
AND (a.startdate <= current_timestamp OR a.startdate IS NULL) AND
(a.stopdate > current_timestamp OR a.stopdate IS NULL)';

Checked on version 1.8 and 1.10.
