A quick investigation showed that enabling "recent posts" for non- individually owned blogs was about a two-line code change (changing the "allowed_in_view" method for the blocktype, and changing the "get recent posts" function so that it no longer checks that the retrieved blog entries belong to the owner of the page).
So, since it's such a minor change, I've implemented it for 16.04. On the other hand, the same investigation indicated that, indeed, tagged blog posts don't adapt easily. The problem is that there is no equivalent to the "user_tags" table, for groups or institutions. So when the block is placed, the tag selector is not able to figure out what list of tags should be available. So, I've spun that out into a separate Bug 1543315. ** Summary changed: - Add same journal options from portfolio pages to group pages (e.g. tagged journal items) + "Recent journal entries" for group journals -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

However the journal options for a group page has only to options: [1] Journal; [2] journal item. Portfolio pages let users also select [3] 'recent journal items' and [4] 'tagged journal items'. (see Attachment) Also on a group page journals are presented in full, where as in portfolio pages users can choose whether to show the journal in full or only titles of journal items. It would be useful when the additional options for filtering jounal items would be available in the menu for group pages.
