Those groups are visible in all section aware tools, there was a request to hide those groups to avoid confusion to instructors. I believe the groups that your site owner is reporting were created by lessons. Here are a couple of jiras that explain a bit more how Lessons handles those groups. https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/LSNBLDR-264 https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/LSNBLDR-141 Hope it helps, best regards, Mariano El 04/11/2014 11:50, Adam Marshall escribi?: > > Perhaps I should clarify what the issue is here. > > As I understand it, forums are being accessed via the lessons tool.

That would be most helpful. Generally I understand what you are saying but having the exact step-by-step will make it easier to see what the root cause is and if it is working as designed or a real problem. I believe Lessons does auto-create groups to manage the complex options it has for releasing content.
