      1. Go to Site administration > Development > Experimental > Experimental settings and click "Enable group members only"
      2. Go to course and upload course content. In the "Common module settings" section, click "Show advanced" and click "Available for group members only", but select "None" for the grouping.
      3. Go to course settings and enable guest access
      4. Visit course as guest user
        1. EXPECTED: You can see the uploaded course content
        2. ACTUAL: You do not see the uploaded course content

      The regular testing for groupings and groupmembersonly should be performed as well to ensure no regressions.

    Description

      Hello all,

      when enabling the enablegroupmembersonly - flag in Experiemental settings the course content is completely disappeared for role participant.

      I found that there must be going wrong in update_user_visible()

      The debugger jumps into 

      else if (!empty($CFG->enablegroupmembersonly) and !empty($this->groupmembersonly)
      		 
                      and !has_capability('moodle/site:accessallgroups', $modcontext, $userid)) {
      		 
                  $groups = $this->modinfo->get_groups($this->groupingid);
      		 
      .....

      Then group is empty... so that uservisible is set to "false"

      In the corresponding course there is NO group setting done.
      That makes no sense.
      Hope somebody can help...
