Stacey, It actually used to realise the view was part of a collection, but you broke that behaviour with 528d83b5 (grr!). I've just replaced the lines that did this (see db0750c3), but I guess you might want to try to remember if you had some other good reason for removing them earlier. ** Changed in: mahara Status: New => Fix Committed ** Changed in: mahara Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: mahara Assignee: (unassigned) => Richard Mansfield (richard-mansfield) ** Changed in: mahara Milestone: None => 1.3.0 -- View access accessible when view is in a collection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/620258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

What do you think of adding the 'Edit Collection' link as well? I'd imagine this just linking to the collection/views.php page for managing viewlists. -- View access accessible when view is in a collection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/620258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

Hi Stacey, > Are you talking about the link to the access page from the view itself? Yes, exactly. I'm fonder of option a) when it can be made clear that they will be looking at the collection access page and not the view access page. And that they'll be changing the access for the entire collection. -- View access accessible when view is in a collection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/620258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 620258] Re: View access accessible when view is in a collection
Hi Kristina, Are you talking about the link to the access page from the view itself? I just discovered that by clicking on the visible 'Edit Access' in the top right of the view takes me back to the current views access page without realising that it is part of a collection. I am wondering if we might want to: a) change 'Edit Access' to go to the collections access page when the view is part of a collection and, b) add an 'Edit Collection' link up there - so that a user can be looking at their new collections display and decide that "hang on that view doesn't quite belong in this collection now that I think about it ... " or "hmm, I want to change that navigation order around a bit" and want easy access back to this Obviously there might be other solutions but these seem the easiest. :) -- View access accessible when view is in a collection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/620258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.
