The pages imported don't show up when I Browse pages, when I click on Pages in the top nav, or (though they appeared to be assigned to the root admin account), in my profile. I can see that they have been imported when I go to the Page Group Config module.

Is there a way to look at or edit pages without having to assign them to a group - most of them are standalone.

From my response to a support ticket -
Quote: As you may have read in the docs and on the forum, Ning has failed to include the association of any Pages to Groups in their archives. This means that you need to do this association, if necessary, 'by hand'.
All Ning pages have been imported to the jrGroupPage module. In the ACP goto that module, click on the Tools tab, then the Page Group Config button. Here you'll see the means to allocate pages to groups, or migrate them to the jrPage module if they are 'stand-alone' pages.

jrGroupPage and jrPage are different modules. The link in the Ningja menu is to jrPage items, so use the tool detailed above to move standalone pages to the jrPage module whereupon they will show on the 'pages' page.

Ahh,

So I have to assign the pages before they become visible on the site. Makes sense.

On the other hand ...

When I cancel out of this page:

http://www.thechocolatelife.info/thechocolatelife/group_page/group_config

I was sent to this page:

http://www.thechocolatelife.info/thechocolatelife/shekhar-halder/forum/14469/about-chocolate-making

and getting a 404 instead of being returned back to the Tools page in the ACP, which is what I would have expected.

One thing to check is that the Profile Forum is allowed in the quotas - you'll get a 404 not found if you try to hit a page for an inactive module or a module not allowed by quota.

I saw something like that happening when I pasted the above url directly into the browser and cancelling. It happens because the button code directs to its 'referrer' so that forum page was likely in the browser history.
When going to that page via conventional means with the ACP, it works ok.
Thanks
