BuddyPress.org

I want to remove the “Forum” step from the BuddyPress group creation step but keep the group forums active. I have tried many solutions but I can’t seem to find a filter I could use.

For example, this code:

add_filter( 'groups_create_group_steps', function ( $steps ) {
    unset( $steps['group-settings'] );
    return $steps;
} );

removes the group settings from the group creation process.

This code:

function buddydev_remove_group_admin_settings() {

    if ( ! bp_is_group() ) {
        return;
    }

    bp_core_remove_subnav_item( groups_get_current_group()->slug . '_manage', 'group-settings', 'groups' );

    // reattach screen function to avoid 404.
    add_action( 'bp_screens', 'groups_screen_group_admin', 3 );
}

add_action( 'bp_template_redirect', 'buddydev_remove_group_admin_settings', 1 );

removes the group settings from the Group “Manage” menu.

Using this:

function remove_unwanted_group_creation_steps() {
    global $bp;
    if ( isset( $bp->groups->group_creation_steps['forum'] ) ) {
        unset( $bp->groups->group_creation_steps['forum'] );
    }

}
add_action( 'bp_before_create_group_content_template', 'remove_unwanted_group_creation_steps', 9999 );

removes the step but leaves the /create/step/forum/ step active, thus messing with the custom number of steps I have.

I also posted in the bbPress forums but was told from a Moderator that this is probably a question for the buddypress support forum!
