[Bug 1528090] Re: Moderating of comments lost functionality

 

What Robert described is correct. This is reflected in the language in
the manual: "If you have not allowed comments in general, you can still
choose to allow them for a certain person or group of people who are in
your access list."

In other words, the individual share row "Allow" and "Moderate" settings
are only displayed if you have disabled "Allow Comments" on the page
level. Because if you've enabled it on the page level, then it already
applies to everybody. I just tested it and it still works this way in
Mahara 15.10.

That said, there's certainly room for a UI redesign here (maybe for
16.10). New people I show this functionality to are always a bit
flummoxed by those appearing/disappearing checkboxes.

  Moderating of comments lost functionality

Bug description:
  Mahara 15.10+

  This is a regression. When you select to "Moderate comments" on the
  "Edit access" page, you are supposed to see two columns in which you
  can select for whom the moderation shall apply. See
  http://manual.mahara.org/en/15.04/portfolio/share.html#choose-
  advanced-options in particular
  http://manual.mahara.org/en/15.04/_images/share_access_comments.png

  These columns are not available anymore in Mahara 15.10 and probably
  got lost during the conversion of this screen. Since we don't use that
  functionality much, we must have overlooked it during the review
  process.
