Remove group updates, but not personal ones (6 posts)

    The group status box is too confusing for my users – they sometimes reply to activity there rather than on the forum.
    So, I’d like to remove the status box from groups, but not from anywhere else – can anyone help me?

    Thanks

    I got somewhere with this, by putting the box in the elseif statement, but it meant that the first form box for replies completely messed up, so I reverted it.
    If there is a way to even just make it so admin can only post updates that might work.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    I have no removed the line <?php if ( is_user_logged_in() && bp_group_is_member() ) : ?>
    From activity.php in groups/single – does anyone know how to change is_user_logged_in to group admins only?

    Ok, all done it’s now this <?php if ( bp_group_is_admin() ) : ?>

    thanks @nuprn1 it seems that changing that one line as above has done what I need it to – I also removed the drop down from the main status box – now just admins can post to the groups
