Title:
Untie "Allow public pages" from "Allow public profiles"
Status in Mahara:
In Progress
Bug description:
This bug report is about two site settings (under "Site options ->
General settings")
1. Allow public pages
2. Allow public profiles
Currently, the behavior of these is tied together. If "Allow public
pages" is turned on, it forces "Allow public profiles" to be on. If
"Allow public pages" is turned off, then and only then, the admin can
toggle "Allow public profiles" separately. As of Bug 814328, this
behavior is reflected with Javascript that grays out "Allow public
profiles" when it is being overridden.
However, there's no ironclad reason why these two settings have to be
tied together like this. There is at least one case on the forums, of
a user wanting to allow public pages but *not* public profiles:

Frankly, I think the reason these are tied together in the first place
is a bug, not a feature.
