Where is the context menu 'Administer group forums' [#557534]

In the readme (see below), it states that as a group owner, I should see some menu that allows me to edit the permissions for forums. I cannot seem to find that?! By context menu, I assume it means when you're editing the group node itself, under the group title where it offers menu tabs for:

| View | Forums | Edit |

But i don't see a sub-menu for Administer Group Forums. Can anyone tell me where this is (under what Navigation menu), and, better yet, forward an example URL to this page so I can admin it.

THANKS!

-ALLOW PUBLIC CHOICE
This allows group owners to decide which of their forums are public or private, but
can also work with the auto setting above. First an explaination without the auto
setting:

In each forum, the group owner (or admins) will see a link in the context menu to
'Administer group forums' which presents a table structure whereby they may edit
forums' names or delete them, add forums to the container, make them public,
make them private, or rest them. The publicity settings enter these values into the
database - PRIVATE_SET_BY_OWNER, PUBLIC_SET_BY_OWNER, and PRIVATE_DEFAULT. The 'set
by owner' values take precedence over the 'auto' and 'default' values.

OK, I looked through the code, it's the page "Manage groups forum" that seems orphaned -- i.e. I can't get to this page from any of the og menus! The URL is /og_forum/manage/79 where 79 is one my groups. I can go to it manually by using the appropriate group number, but it is not referenced anywhere on the group page or Edit page itself that I can see.

Any ideas why this menu is not showing up on my site? Where is this the link to this page supposed to appear?

Also, I don't seem to have the ability to set forum topic posts as public or private. Something's messed up, but where?

Hi glen,

I've been looking for the place to manage OG forums for weeks now. Thank you for sharing this knowledge now... This is great! I was starting to become very frustrated, as the link to that menu didn't appear anywhere. Now I'm one step further.

Also nevermind if you play around with the options in "Forum publicity administration" ("Automatic forum publicity", "Allow public choice" or "Make all forums public") nothing seems to be happening?! E.g. if you switch off the option in the permission settings "make forums public" and set "Allow public choice" in OG forum settings you don't have the latter option anywhere available. Neither the forums become public when you set "Make all forums public"...?

But as you mentioned it's still impossible for forums that are set public, their topics to be seen by non-group members. With the above mentioned option to make forums public yuo can see only the forums, but none of the topic in them?! - I succeeded in showing the topic by installing the taxonomy access module - http://drupal.org/project/Taxonomy_Access

Also, paulbooker has been very kind in giving an explanation related to that issue here - http://drupal.org/node/554836

@mitkoru You are 1000% correct - I replied to the maintainers post in the above node #554836: "Allow public choice" - where to use it? see reply #6 in support of your assertions.
