[Bug 1683224] [NEW] If you aren't allowed to create / edit a page in a group, don't show the "Add" and "Copy" buttons

 

Public bug reported:

Mahara 17.04RC1 (but also previous versions of Mahara)

When you are in a group but are not allowed to add or edit a page, you
still see the "Add" and "Copy" buttons. When you click a button, only
then will you get the information that you can't actually add or copy a
page.

For improved usability, these two buttons shouldn't be displayed on
"Pages and collections" if you aren't allowed to add or copy portfolios.
