This module does not work properly.
The "Member Titles" button shows up for OG Group Admins. Which is perfectly fine. But, no matter what title you give each member in that specific group, the titles never show up in the Faces or List section of the membership areas for that specific OG Group.
This is really frustrating.
I was kinda hoping that maybe these new member titles might show under the avatar in posts/forum posts or even at least on that users profile next to the group that they are joined with.
But, there is "nowhere" on my site that shows anything about member titles.
Regular (Non OG Admins) visit their joined OG Group and they don't see the member titles button. Only the OG Group Admin for that specific group can see that button.
Maybe, it would be better if it was possible for their to a members title list. Like, a page that shows all the members and their member title, regardless, this module does not work as originally intended.
I uploaded a screenshot to show what it is doing.

gensuperman commentedI have also tested the OG Titles 6.x-1.0 2009-May-27 version and the bug also still exists there too.

mradcliffeThere a couple of different questions you have.
1. Og Titles does not modify any of the Og-generated views. You should be able to modify that view or create you own view. There is a default view as an example. You can make this a block or a page.
2. I do not have any functionality for forums or advanced forums integration. This sounds like a feature request, and I'll put it on my list.
3. The self-management link is still not in a good place. However, if a user role has the required permissions, then the title ui will be visible in the url og/manage/%/title where % is the group id.

michelleJust an FYI, if you want to have it show on AF forum posts, you'll want to integrate with Author Pane as explained here: http://drupal.org/node/326809

mradcliffeI'm going to add a default view to override og_my called og_my_titles. This will have the the edit title link for users as an additional column.
I'll make a further issue for the feature request for Author Pane later. It's a bit more complex than one might think to implement as who knows how many groups and titles a particular user might have.

michelleAP has a preprocess for OG that will list the groups a user is in. We could possibly merge them so it lists them like:
Groups: Cool Group (manager), Awesome Group (head honcho), etc...
I'm working on finalizing AP 2.x so now is a good time to do it if you want to go that route. Otherwise, you can add your own preprocess at any time. Because it's a preprocess, the code should be kept in the module doing the processing, not AP. I just have a bunch for other modules in AP because my patches languished in their queues forever and I finally gave up and just stuck them in AP.
