I'm trying in create a group homepage similar to the Drupal Dojo homepage at least with respect to the tabs (home, lessons, etc.) across the top. Somewhere along the line though I'm running into issues and I'm not sure if it is a path alias issue or a views issue. Here's what I've done so far.
I've created several group content types.
Team
- Path Auto: groups/team/[title-raw]
Committee
- Path Auto: groups/committee/[title-raw]
Base off this alone I can list my groups and navigate to those URLs. I see the standard group home page with the river of news.
I then added several page types to the og_ghp_ron view, each filtering by a specific content type.
Page (home)
- Path: og/%/home
- Menu: Default tab (Home)
Page (news)
- Path: og/%/news
- Menu: tab (News)
Page (discuss)
- Path: og/%/discuss
- Menu: tab (Discuss)
If I navigate to og//home I see the home page and all of the tabs across the top. I can navigate using the other tabs perfect. However, when I navigate to groups/team/ I don't see the tabs at all.
Questions
1) How does drupal dojo present the tabs when navigating to groups.drupal.org/drupal-dogo ?
2) Is it possible to use the group (node) title as an argument instead of the group (node) ID?
3) Can I use the same URL structure for the tabs? (i.e. groups/team//news takes me to the news tab?
4) If I cannot use the same URL structure, how would I go about having all of the links to groups throughout the site go to the og/%/home path instead of the groups/team/ path?

Problem with tabs and pathauto
I was able to get tabs in OG home pages, but only after tweaking pathauto. It seems that OG might only work with tabs if the tabs use "node" in the paths.
When adding tabs to views, in the views, use paths as if pathauto was not installed (node/%/meetings).
In pathauto, for the content type for groups, set as if there was no pathautho (node/[nid]).

Problem solved
I've documented my solution in another thread in case anyone was interested.
