[GeoNode-users] Layers Group in GeoNode

[Paolo Corti]

Hi
this would be useful but it is not trivial. For example we should keep
track of such a layer type in GeoNode Django database, as for this
kind of layers some feature should behave differently. For example a
layer group should be never editable, also the style editor should be
disabled etc etc
Nevertheless, it would be really useful a PR implementing all of this
if you have the resources to implement it.
best
Paolo

I want to include the layer groups into geonode from geoserver. While trying to figure it out I came across this post https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/geonode-devel/2016-May/000871.html which seems like a similar problem, but I haven’t been able to get very far from there.
