Don’t know if that fix was included in the latest release?

Well, I can kill the home tab, but since thats the default landing for a group, it means I get kicked to the site homepage whenever I try to open a group…

Ok… so now to find how to change the default landing page of a group.

Your forum suite is indispensable.

Cheers

(as an aside, what would it take to make the modules integrated into one plugin – like “theme my login” does so they are not taking up so much plugin page real-estate … just a low-priority admin aesthetics thought. – Thanks)

No worries – I’ve been using Filosofo Remove Dashboard plugin from wordpress. And I fixed the above issue by adding:

if (preg_match(‘#wp-admin/?(.*)?$#’,$_SERVER) && (‘index.php’ != $menu)) //send everything packing
wp_redirect(get_option(‘siteurl’));

Around line 53 – just below the index.php redirect.
