Some Group pages imported from Ning get 'Not Found'

Just noticing that on a Group I own, there are some Group Pages I imported when migrating from ning...and I had assigned those pages to their proper Group. The pages were created by a regular member Robin, who still 'owns' them. I thought I had these working fine when i migrated a year ago.
I can see the pages listed in my group_page module Tool for re-assigning orphan ning pages. The member has assured me they didn't delete those pages. (My site is set to only allow me to 'create' a group.)
If I create a new Page in the same group, the link brings me to it ok. Here's the weird thing- if i 'change owner' of one of HIS old pages to be ME instead and clearcache, I still get a Not Found.

Any suggestions?
Here is the Group in question: http://fotmd.com/strumelia/group/19/old-style-drone-noter-players
...and the top 'test' Page i just now created works fine. I own the group, but the member Robin created those other Pages when we were on Ning.

--Wondering IF the reason is: that only the Group Owner can add Pages to a particular Group? -So maybe because I own that group, the regular member Robins pre-existing ning pages in that group will not show?

The link is pointing to the wrong location.

The link on the group page ( http://fotmd.com/strumelia/group/19/old-style-drone-noter-players) is pointing to:
http://fotmd.com/robin-clark/group_page/8/advanced-noter-techniques-intermediate-1
it should be pointing to:
http://fotmd.com/strumelia/group_page/8/advanced-noter-techniques-intermediate-1

So it feels like the group is in the correct place, but the link to the group is incorrect.

The issue is the pages still belong to robin-clark profile. you can change them here:
http://fotmd.com/group_page/change

I changed the "Advanced Noter Techniques" and it worked.

--edit--
should be all connected though, we'll need to take a look at this.

Michael, I was to still be the owner of that group, but I would like to allow Robin (who I do NOT want to make into a profile admin) to make pages in that group, or at least to show him as the person who created those excellent existing pages that were imported from ning. He should have credit for creating those pages of great teaching info.
Is this possible somehow? (Maybe putting him into a special quota, or is there a setting someplace to allow a regular member to make pages in groups?)

You'd have to adjust something on the page, if the group is at:
your-site.com/strumellia/

then you cant have part of that group on a different profile
your-site.com/robin-clarke/

If you wanted to give credit, perhaps an additional form field

Docs: "Using the Form Designer"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/1275/using-the-form-designer

To add the creator of the page. "Created by Robyn"

----
I just went and looked at the code, there is "Can Create Pages" option built in to the current version, not sure if thats a JR6 thing or is there on yours too.

Yes you can allow your users to create pages, eg:
http://fotmd.com/group/user_config/group_id=19/user_id=4690

Click on their members icon in the group, then check the "can create pages" option.

Ok, YES, I was looking for the setting for that all OVER the place- thanks!!!
I set Robin to be able to create pages in that Group, and ran integrity/cache etc. But his older pages still don't show, I guess because of their url.
But I assume that means that in GOING FORWARD, this will no longer be a problem- that he will be able to create new valid pages there in the group that i still own- is that right?
----------
Now I guess I will transfer owner to me of his past pages and then play around with the Form Designer as you suggest above. Or maybe just edit his old pages to include his name really big at top of each page. But...he'd not be able to EDIT them though, right?...since they'll now be MY pages?

Yes can create and Update. The location will be on the /strumelia/ url though.

Might need to add a button for update to the templates, looks like the update button only shows for the owner.

I transferred ownership of his old pages to me so they now show. I made sure his author name was large and obvious.
I told him he was now enabled to create NEW pages in that group. I also told him if he wanted to be able to EDIT his old pages he'd either have to ask me to do it it for him, OR he could copy/paste all the old page content into a NEW page he creates himself, and then i could delete the old pages.
My site has very few pages anyway, so i think this solves this issue as long as I can actually enable individual members to create pages in a particular group with that nifty settings checkbox...now that I know where it is!
I should ask him to create a test page in that group just to make sure it's working right before I mark this thread solved.

Michael, I'm thinking it's probably best that a page-creating-enabled member cannot edit any pages that I either 'own' or have created, anyway.
