If a published journal entry is reverted to draft it would not be visible on the page anymore like in the block when an entire journal is put into the page.
If we go with option 2 then it may not be very clear to users what others see as "Draft" may not give enough information and we can't really put much more on there. A user might forget that a journal entry is in draft status and thus not visible to other users. If we allowed to have a draft entry visible to others on the page, we would effectively eventually have to create a mode where users can see the page as others would see them in order to really know what others can see. That's why I favor option 1. It has fewer possibilities for confusion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

When the user puts the entire journal into a page (or tagged journal entries), the draft entry is not visible because it is in draft status. There are two possibilities as far as I can see right now: 1. Do not allow users to include journal entries that are in draft status into a page (and mention that in the block pop-up so they don't wonder why draft entries do not show up). 2. The block "Journal entry" needs to be changed so that draft entries are only visible to the author at most but not other users on the page. This should also include some visual indicator as we have in the journal itself for the draft. "Draft" could also be mentioned next to the title of the journal entry when selecting it in the block pop-up. I tend towards option 1 as that is cleaner and more in line with the behavior of the other blocks. We should then also mention on the other blocks that draft entries are not displayed.
