When you include an image in the group description and someone who is not yet a member of the group looks at the group homepage, that someone cannot see the image as only members of the group have access to the files that are saved in a group. In contrast to images added to a text block on a page and the page then being shared and others can see the images, that doesn't work for group homepages. If you add an image to an image block though, you can view the image just fine. To replicate: 1. Create a group and save it. 2. Add an image to the group description (you can only do that after you saved the group because before then you don't have group files available) and save. 3. Log in as someone else and view the group homepage. Expected result: You see the image. Actual result: You can't and only see the alt text. There are two possibilities going forward: 1. Correct the permissions so you can view images added to the group description. 2. Remove the possibility to add images in a group description. The images don't show up in the overview page of the available groups. And images can be added easily to the group homepage by using the image block. It could be worthwhile to discuss not offering the possibility to have all the formatting options for description fields such as group description and page description. In the past, we wanted more formatting options in page descriptions in order to circumvent the column layout which was not flexible enough to have a banner across the entire page. This has been possible for a number of versions now and the need for page description formatting is not so great anymore. Therefore, I wonder if we could dispense with either all formatting options or at minimum remove the possibility to add images. No matter the decision, since it's easy to get around the issue with images in the group description, I'm marking this as a low bug.
