Feature #2066
closedPublic Blog Posts Associated with Private Groups showing up in Sitewide feed

Description
At the top of the recent blog posts listings is a post I just wrote for a new class I'm teaching. It's on a public blog that is associated with a private group. What's strange is that the blog post shows up as being posted as an activity item to the private group. I think that the private group shouldn't be mentioned at all -- just the public blog post.
Hope that makes some semblance of sense.

Makes sense, but in my mind this looks more like a feature than a bug. "Public" means "public".
In any case, rewriting the blog/group activity sync to account for this kind of edge case is pretty labor intensive, so I'd like to push it off until a time when it can be properly tested.

Fine with pushing it off, but just so my point is clear: I'm not saying that the public blog post shouldn't be part of the public Commons feed, just that it shouldn't be publicly shared as an activity item of a private group. Instead, it should be posted as an activity item like any other blog post on the site (ie., one not associated with a group)

Note to self: The activity item shouldn't be totally detached from the group, because that way it won't end up in the group activity stream. Instead, just remove the reference to the group from the activity action string.

In https://github.com/castiron/cac/commit/5da340c8bf35d3286d4ca64f3dcca6db7db3d0fa I make the following change: When an activity item is created by a public blog that is associated with a private group, filter the activity action to remove the group association.
