[Bug 1722180] Re: Unable to edit shortname of copied group

 

Hi Gordon,

Hmm - I see that if the user is a site admin they can edit the group
shortname but a normal user cannot, even if the normal user created the
group and is the group administrator.

I'm thinking that we should allow the group creator be able to change
the shortname (if not any group admin)

Title:
  Unable to edit shortname of copied group

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using an existing group on 17.04 as a template for a new group with a similar layout. The shortname is created by default and greyed out so cannot be changed. From copying a group that was called BVMSclassof2021 I now have BVMSclassof2021a and BVMSclassof2021aa for the shortnames of group that don't even relate to that programme or year, but can't see any way to edit it (without accessing back-end db, which I'm not allowed to do).
  Thanks, Gordon.
