I'm missing something in my group forums. I'm not seeing a text box pop up for additional responses/comments when I create a new group forum post like I do when I I post in my profile forum.

What could I be overlooking?

Here's an example of a profile forum post and then a group forum post. The text box will pop up below each comment in the profile forum posts (like it should) but in the group forum posts, only the initial post is allowed & no more text boxes appear for any additional comments underneath it.

FWIW- I am not having that issue- I do get the text reply box in my Group discussion.

I'm not sure what's going on (has to be a simple fix).

Guesses:
* is the jrComments module turned on? yoursite.com/comment/admin/info
* is the user in a quota allowed to use Comments? yoursite.com/comment/admin/quota

Try those for starters.

@michael Thanks! You were right about both of them! I'm guessing that something got unchecked somehow on a recent update.

Here's another question for you, how would I remove the "Share This" links from a private group page?

:) I like it when things get solved.

For the second one, you'll need to adjust the item_detail.tpl file:
ACP -> PROFILE GROUPS -> GROUP DISCUSS -> TEMPLATES -> item_detail.tpl -> MODIFY

locate this piece of code:

{if jrGroup_member_has_access($item)}
   {* bring in the item details *}
   {jrCore_item_detail_features module="jrGroupDiscuss" item=$item exclude="jrShareThis~sharethis"}
{/if}

and change it to:
{if jrGroup_member_has_access($item)}
   {* bring in the item details *}
    {if $item.group_private == 'on'}
      {jrCore_item_detail_features module="jrGroupDiscuss" item=$item exclude="jrShareThis~sharethis"}
    {else}
      {jrCore_item_detail_features module="jrGroupDiscuss" item=$item}
    {/if}
{/if}

Save the modification and activate that template. Then save.

Worked awesome @michael!
It removed the "Share This" from the forums in the private groups but it still shows in the private group pages and on the private group entry/home page.

Could you give me the code to remove it in those two places?

probably just needs the module changed to the module that provides those pages.

Those module names are: jrGroupPage and jrGroup
