Issue Summary
I used to have in my previous website (in Drupal 5), a filters to show blocks on my group pages. The filter was "OG: Posts in user subbed group". Is this the same now in OG 6: "Organic Groups: Group Member"? When I try it now, it doesn't produce the same results, but I don't see anything else that might be the same.

#1
Am I missing something? I've looked for documentation and support requests, tried a bunch of different ways, but can't find anything. Did this filter get dropped in OG 6? All I want is to add to a view the filter of "Post is in user-subscribed group".

I too am wondering where this filter went.
I am in the process up upgrading a site from Drupal 5 to Drupal 6. I have made a wiki-like content type easily accessible to group members through this feature. I've been able to recreate many of my views, but can't get this to work. Before I spend to much time figuring out a work-around or even eventually abandon the upgrade, it'd be great to know:
1) Is there a way to implement "OG: Posts in user subbed group" with Views 2 and OG in Drupal 6 ?
2) If not, will this filter be implemented? If so (please, yes), any idea when?
Thanks!

This might be tied into the arguments or relationships. I haven't figured those out yet nor found any documentation on how they work...

I eventually contacted Moshe - he's hoping that someone will eventually fill in this missing crack. In the meantime, I've reworked my site a little and may poke around in how to create the filter or carry it over from D5 ...
On the subject of relationships, I did try to see if they would help out, but couldn't make heads or tails of what they do.

It's quite simple, actually.
1. In your view, add the relationship "Organic groups: Group node (post)"
2. In your view, add the filter "Organic groups: Group member". Use the relationship you just added, and check the "user is logged in" checkbox.
That's all you need to duplicate the function of "Posts in User Subbed Groups"

If you ste the filter as exposed, it stills show in the exposed list the whole bunch of groups, no matter you´re the manager or member or not.
It doesn´t show the evenths, but it DOES show the list.
