I have one group setup, set to hidden, at the moment I am the only member, as the super Admin of the website. When I view groups from the website I don’t see the group listed in groups.
Group view

It says I have one group but I cannot access it from the website. If I switch the group to public or private I do see it but as a hidden group.

Help…..

Your hidden group will be visible when you are logged in.

Hmm, I cannot duplicate this problem.

Can you try deleting your hidden group and creating a new one?

I tried that and even invented a new user and had that user setup a hidden group. I can’t see the hidden group under the new user.

It took me awhile to think about what might be causing the issue and I just remembered the problem.

It’s a theme conflict with BuddyPress.

BuddyPress adds the CSS class hidden to a group in the group loop. Some themes might already have a .hidden class declared, so hidden groups are not shown because of this.

Can you add the following CSS snippet to your CSS?

#buddypress .bp-single-group.hidden {display:block;}

I believe this should fix your problem.

Well done. That appears to have fixed the problem.
Many thanks.
