These are apart from the other issues with upgrading from an older version of the addon and needing to switch existing forum nodes over to the new node type, or primarily setting up a good individual node as the Archive node where all the new group discussion posts are now actually stored instead of separately created real nodes. Interesting approach, I suppose it cuts down on the potential bloat of loads of real forum nodes added by groups.
Anyway, on to the issues I've noticed.
1. Stickied threads in group discussion forums are not shown properly stickied to the top of the thread list. They're just shown amongst all the other threads.
2. Nested group discussion nodes are displayed poorly. In the overall group discussion forum index, the nested node is shown separately as if it weren't nested, as well as showing nested in the proper place under the other forum it's in. Then, when navigating into the parent node, that nested child node isn't properly shown within. You have to back out to the overall node list to see it listed there twice, and get to it that way.
2b. Posts made within a nested/child forum are also shown in the parent forum as well; they show up in both forums.
3. Breadcrumbs on threads in a group discussion forum probably shouldn't link to the real node the thread is in, they should preferably link to the 'pseudo' group discussion forum instead. Breadcrumbs when viewing group discussion forums should also probably have a full set of breadcrumbs, with a link to the main page for the group itself, and a link on the end for the overall "Discussions" page of the group.
