Comment to Groups Post in Context

  • I found what was causing this all to happen!

    There is this checkbox in Studio >> Settings >> System >> Site Settings that is making the the "Create Post (Context) block not work in groups and events. It was also keeping different things from appearing in the visibility dropdown in areas.

    image_transcoder.php?o=sys_images_editor&h=1910&dpx=2&t=1712073696I do not understand what "Treat context posted in context as content" means so I don't know what the affect of it is but unchecking it seems to fix the issues.

    • Hello. UNA has ConteXt apps (Groups, Events, Spaces, etc) and ConteNt apps (Posts, Photos, Videos, etc). Context may have its own Create Post form which allows to post Content in Context. But some Contexts, like Groups and Events, can be posted in Context too. It was made to allow users? for example, to post Events in Groups. So, this setting tells the system that Context (for example a group) which was posted in another Context (for example a space) will be treated as Content. It means that this new group won't have its own Create Post form and another content cannot be posted in it. It was added to allow the admin to limit nesting with only 2 levels: Context and Content. Avoiding situations like Post in Group, which is in Event, which is in another Group, which in another Event, which in its turn in Space, etc, etc, etc.

      • Thanks for the explanation Anton! I will have to read that very slowly about 10 more times to fully understand 😂 but I really appreciate it!

        • You are welcome and yes, imagination should be switched on during reading this... 😬
