(In [svn:3790]) Refs (Trac Ticket 1400): Fixed a typo in checking the site_guid. Can't duplicate (Trac Ticket 1400) now, so possible fix for that. Waiting for other tests to close this one.

Wasn't able to reproduce. Also my initial testing with Tidypics went well.

Resolving as fixed since we can't reproduce.
Original ticket http://trac.elgg.org/ticket/1400 on 2009-12-05 by cash, assigned to unknown.
Elgg version: Github Master
Right now, if an entity is set so that the access is group only, the only people who can see it are those who are friends of the creator (should include those who are not members of the group but I didn't test that).
To demonstrate using the latest out of svn, create a closed group with two members (non-admins). One creates a forum topic. The other won't be able to see it due to access issues.
This problem traces back to the root problem that Elgg has with containers and groups. I think this is an issue that needs to be worked out for a 1.7 release. I suppose you could solve it with a hack (check if container entity is a group and if so grab the access list) but I think the issue is more fundamental with the group functionality.
