How are you creating the doc?
The fact that you mention Preview makes me think that you are creating Docs through the Dashboard. Don’t do that. When you create a Doc on the Dashboard, there’s no (easy) way to tell it which group it should be associated with. As a result, there’s no (easy) way to see it on the front end of the site.
Instead, go to a group on the BP front end. Ensure that Docs are enabled for the group (Admin > Docs). Then go to Docs > New Doc. Any doc you create there will be properly associated with your group.
Thank you so much. I was doing it from the Dashboard. It is a wonderful plugin.
Great! Glad you’ve got it working. Future versions will make it easier to compose from the Dashboard.
