Description

When a user is not a member of a group, he/she is not able to post to the forum and instead sees this page (see screenshot -- http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/library-technology-subcommittee-of-the-cuny-committee-on-academic-technology/forum/) with information about how many topics and replies the forum contains. The error message that appears directly contradicts that information by saying that no topics were found.

I suggest that the first yellow bar be deleted entirely. The text in the remaining yellow bar could be modified to say something like "Join this group to access the forum!" (see mockup). If possible, it would be great if 'join this group' within that text was an active link that allows you to join the group.
