Add Albums/Photos to Group

I am lost with how to add Albums to a Group and then put photos in those albums.  Sounds silly but I can't figure it out.  Probably staring at the screen for too long.

Anyone has a hint for me.

    • Is it even possible without a module like what is on Dolphin?

      • Hello Molosser Dogs !

        If you are a group member with the possibility to post content there then in the new album's visibility you will see this group in the available variants (see attached screen). If you will choose it then this album will belong to this group.

        • Interesting, i have to test this out, cause i had same idea/question

          • Wow - this is a well-hidden feature. Thank you LeonidS. Will give it a try now.

            • The attached image is not available.

              • Glad I am not the only person going crazy here.. please see atached.. I created my own group, I am trying to add new Discussion to my OWN group, I can't find anywhere a link or a button how to add a Discussion.. If I click on {+} on top right, it will take me to the public Discussions, but that's not the public Discussion I need access to, I need Discussion WITHIN the group.. I'd like to have this Discussion open only to my students who subscribe to my group, but not to every member on the site.. why this is so difficult to figure out.. What do you mean by {available variants } ? that looks like Admin - but my users who subscribe to my Group will not have access to Admin - I am totally lost here.. I simply want users who subscribed to my Group to be able to post the Discussion in the group.. How can they do that ??  LeonidS please help, I have students waiting for me to get started on my training.. Thx !

                • there should be a way to insert a button to start a new Discussion within the Context of a Group. I am surprised there's no such thing.

                  • Hello HELYX !

                    We have the "Create Post (Context)" block which allows to add the content "bound" to the current item (like the group, events etc).

                    • I still don't get it.

                      Visible to: Public

                      Who can post: Public

                      This means the Public can post to the Group, yet, there is no button to post with. I don't see any button to post in a Group for Discussions, Posts, Videos, and a few other things.

                      What am I missing?

                        Where is this "Create Post (Context)" block located?

                          Add a create post (context) block via studio -> page -> group -> view group

                          Click add block, navigate to system, and select create post (context) and click done.


                          Dude! You're a genius! Thank you!! That fixed it!
