This is in response to the behavior described here:
www.jomsocial.com/forum/groups/11259-gro...cussion-link-swapped

I am not able to post to that topic directly.

Specifically, it appears in some cases that the links in the Group toolbar (which toggles between Recent activities, Description, Announcements, Discussions) have broken links for Announcements and Discussions.

The Discussion content appears when you click Announcements, and nothing appears when you click Discussions.

This problem arises when a superadmin visits a group page who is NOT a member of the group.

This issue was resolved in my case by a small change in code

in groups.viewgroup.php, around line 298 find

if( $config->get('createannouncement') && $isMember)

and replace with
if( $config->get('createannouncement'))

The additional test to determine membership appears unnecessary given the prior line and excludes superadmins who are not members, messing up the display of content under the toolbar.

This is not a problem generally visible to the public (superadmins only) but you might consider fixing going forward.
