OG has build-in support for sending out notifications when a post is sent to group. OG forum lets create multiple forums for a group but if "forum" content type is configured as og type to send out notifications, forum topics are listed in group page and og links blocks displays a link "Create forum topics", which is not consistent because let users create topics out of OG Forum. And some groups won't like to have every single forum topic listed in group page.

Blessings!

I have added an option for forum content type: 'omitted_mail', which causes og to not lists forum topics in group page but generates email notifications. I have also implemented hook_og_alter_links to remove "Create forum topics" link.

This new version displays the description of type 'omitted_mail' in OG Admin settings, and implements a prototype hook for og: hook_og_types_map().

Blessings!

Thanks for providing a patch for this feaure request . If one other person can independently confirm this patch as reviewed. I'll get your work committed to the development branch.

Since late December my focus is to have this module released officially as a 6.x-1.0 so i will no longer personally be looking at reported problems on D5 or back porting any further modifications to D6 back to D5. I just don't have the time to do this unfortunately.

Best, Paul
