Group message does not appear in inbox

[Bill Ennals]

When sending a message to a group from Messaging/My Groups, the message does not appear in the inbox of the members of that group as the Social Networking page of the online documentation for v7 suggests it should. From the documentation:

"Once group created ,users can write messages to a group, attach documents to their messages, answer previous threads, vote on others messages and search in the history of all conversations. Users can join or be invited on groups. If they do so, they will receive every discussion concerning these groups into their inbox. Depending on the privacy of the group, you can also read the archives of the group, even if you decided to not follow this group."

It does appear if you click on the relevant group in Messaging/My Groups buy you have to remove the default 'To read' filter. This seems unintuitive as a newly arrived message should be flagged 'To read', no? There is also no numeric indicator in the left hand side bar that a new message has arrived as there is when a new message arrives in your inbox.

Thanks,

Bill.

Hi Amit,

I tested this on the latest runbot and it is working fine, but when I tested it on a local installation using the latest nightly release I still have the problem occurring.

I have attached a screenshot showing that the group message (test 3 test) seems to have been sent to 'nobody' rather than the other follower, myself (Bill Ennals). It seems that the alias created for the group (<email address hidden>) is not being associated with the users that have joined that group.

Is there a setting that I may have changed inadvertently?

Bill
