@boonebgorges, do you perhaps have any ideas? Is it not possible at all to remove specific steps in the group creation process by modifying $bp->groups->group_creation_steps?
I’m having the same issue. I’m also without BP Group Hierarchy.
I’m guessing a brute-force approach would be to try and add in a redirect to the next step, in order to skip the blank step screen. I’m trying to hook into the ‘bp_get_group_creation_form_action’ filter (used to determine where the user goes when he/she clicks the “Next” button in the group creation wizard). However, when I redirect a user by changing the target URL (with a simple text replacement), WordPress gives me a “are you sure you want to do this?” screen. In other words, there seems to be nonce protection that I can’t get around. I’m going to try again later.
Again, the above is very much a brute-force and inelegant (and possibly erroneous) approach.
