Issue in Groups: Files block doesn't show items (also same issues in spaces/orgs.)
I have a group where I have a block dedicated to show "files".
I have at least one file uploaded, but the home page of the group doesn't show anything in the block assigned to show files.
Here is the block layout (I used several blocks for files including: post in, file in contex, file categories, show case..etc).
Here is the front page showing nothing

Anyone noticed this issue too? I appreciate any help on this.

Sorry, here is the link to the post with "files" issue:
-
I used the block in Person’s profile page and it’s working. The block is already there by default and called- User Files.
For groups:
In Studio->Navigation-> Groups Submenu- you can activate the Files- and files posted in the group should be there in that submenu and that page has this block that you want- Files in context
-
*View Groups Submenu I mean
-
I think, that blocks that should output data from categories, still have issues in Beta3 and are not yet covered in Beta4.

Thank you so much @Karina Budhrani for your prompt reply. I do have them in a submenu, but I wanted to have a block with the files of "each group" showing a list or cards (show or else) of all files in that group, that is why I added a block with "files in context" or "posted in" or "files categories" and all failed to show the files in that group.

How did you managed to add the "Files in context" block to a group view page? Normally that block is not copy-able. Because it is tied to a certain parameters in a page URL.
As to the Files Categories block - it shows empty most likely because there are no files with a category set. Since the files are now uploaded using a quick popup upload form - you're not providing a category for it. If you want to set a category then click a file, click edit action for it and set a category. But since we have now folders support in the files module, I think it would be better to avoid categories for files at all and use just the folders instead of categories.
