Upgrade StorageGroup subcollections
hi, I have a group shared with my colleagues in three different countries. We have made subcollection folders for each country and then sub collections in each country folder for three different research topics. I thought that everything that went into one topic subfolder would appear in the pertaining coutry folder above as well as the whole group folder. However, I have found that documents saved in the sub topic folders dont appear in the country folder but do appear in the over all group folder. What would be the problem? thanks

All items in a library are always shown at the top level (i.e. My Library or the group library's top level). For collections, item in a subcollection are, by default, not shown in its parent collections.
While there is no way to change this setting for the online version of the library, you (and anyone else) _can_ change this setting for how the library is displayed locally by setting the recursiveCollections hidden preference to true:

that setting does not sync.
