Hello,

I had to delete the group that had been created with id 0 before I got this tracer to work. But then it showed this:

newly created group args: BP_Groups_Group Object
(
[id] => 0
[creator_id] => 22
[name] => test group
[slug] => test-group
[description] => this is a test group
[status] => public
[enable_forum] => 0
[date_created] => 2015-06-16 07:54:06
[admins] =>
[mods] =>
[total_member_count] =>
[is_member] =>
[is_invited] =>
[is_pending] =>
[last_activity] =>
[user_has_access] =>
[args] => Array
(
[populate_extras] =>
)

)

So the problem is that the group is always created with id=0. I was able to create a page though, so I don’t think it is the same problem that @shanebp mentioned as a problem of 4.2.2 but who knows.

Ok, I solved the problem, turns out I was using wrong the $bp->loggedin_user->id because only returns a value when the user is loggedin, and I wanted to add members to groups when they activate their account, so, the return in that case (members activating their account are not logged in) is 0.

The same applys to the function: get_member_nfl_team(), it tries to get the ID of the logged in user.

I made some modifications to the code and worked perfectly:

function add_members_to_nfl_group($user_id){ // I suppose when you add the parameter $user_id in the fuction and then pass it trough the action 'bp_core_activated_user', the action returns the ID of the memeber beeing activated. 
    $nfl_team = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=2&user_id='.$user_id); // I erased the function get_member_nfl_team() and put the variable here with the new $user_id
    $nfl_team_slug = str_replace(" ", "-", strtolower($nfl_team));
    $group_slug = "aficionados-a-los-".$nfl_team_slug;
    $group_id = BP_Groups_Group::group_exists($group_slug);    
    groups_join_group( $group_id, $user_id ); // Instead of groups_accept_invite() as @henrywright suggested
}
add_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'add_members_to_nfl_group' );

And thats all.

Brilliant! It worked a treat, and I used the ‘user_register’ as suggested. So for anyone else looking for this solution, this is the code i used to turn some on and some off by default on new user registration:

add_action( 'user_register', 'bpdev_set_email_notifications_preference');
function bpdev_set_email_notifications_preference( $user_id ) {
//I am putting some notifications to no by default and the common ones to yes to enable it.
//ref. https://bp-tricks.com/snippets/changing-default-buddypress-notifications-settings and BP forum
$settings_keys = array(
'notification_activity_new_mention' => 'yes',
'notification_activity_new_reply' => 'yes',
'notification_friends_friendship_request' => 'no',
'notification_friends_friendship_accepted' => 'no',
'notification_groups_invite' => 'no',
'notification_groups_group_updated' => 'no',
'notification_groups_admin_promotion' => 'no',
'notification_groups_membership_request' => 'no',
'notification_messages_new_message' => 'yes',
);
foreach( $settings_keys as $setting => $preference ) {
bp_update_user_meta( $user_id, $setting, $preference );
}
}

and this went in my child theme functions.php file.
Hooray! Thanks so much again – it will make a big different to our users experience.
Cheers 🙂

Here is my issue once again

I am using wordpress 4.1.1 and buddypress Version 2.2.1

When I try to create a new Group it allows me to Put in the name of the Group, and when I hit next, it shows in the browser like it goes to the settings page, but it does not bring up any of the settings.

Whem I click next nothing comes up. I can type in the browser this link ../groups/create/step/group-avatar/
and it will act like it’s on the Avator page, but nothing on the page like the settings page.

When I maually type in the browser groups/create/step/group-invite/ it acts as it going to the invite page but again nothing comes up. When I click Finish it goes back to the Details Page.

When I type in the Group Name in the Browser it appears there, but it will not all me to create any new ones. That group still shows like it needs to be finished, although it appears in my groups.

I have tried to, switch to twenty fourteen and still getting the same error so I tried to uninstall buddypress, deleting it and reinstalled it, and I am still getting that error. My Tested one of my other WP Sites the same version of BP & WP and it creates new groups just fine amy suggestions.

Hi @mrjarbenne,

Thanks so much for helping – I’ve only just found your reply (don’t know what happened to the email notification this time). Anyway, I’ve added it into my bp-custom.php as suggested and Bingo! it works brilliantly. just tried a new test member and I’m instant joined to all 3 of my groups!

Thanks so much for this. Just for clarity for others this is the code i used as per @modemlooper info above:

function automatic_group_membership( $user_id ) {
   if( !$user_id ) return false;
 
   groups_accept_invite( $user_id, $group_id );
}
add_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'automatic_group_membership' );

I have left the spacing exactly as he’d done, just in case… but maybe I could get rid of some of the extra spaces in it?

Cheers 🙂

No, the groups dont show up and I definitely have them as public with forum enabled.
When I invite someone to a group and they accept then they can see it, but they should should just see it under groups

I already test on new wp + bp install.
These code not work! 🙁

// MODIFY GROUP NAME TABS
$bp->bp_options_nav['groups']['home']['name'] = 'Group Activity'; //NOT WORK
$bp->bp_nav['groups']['home']['name'] = 'Member Activity 2'; //NOT WORK

//REMOVE SPECIFIC GROUP TAB
bp_core_remove_subnav_item($bp->groups->slug, 'send-invites');

taken from: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/14469/remove-tabs-from-buddypress-groups-and-members-pages >> It’s not work anymore in latest BP 2.2.1

I’m using latest WordPress 4.1.1 and latest Buddypress 2.2.1
So.. how to exactly modified Group Tabs in single group page?

anybody? Please help. stuck in 3 days for this.
Thank you.

All right, here we go:
http://inviteshare.net/groups/world-wide-news/forum/

Noone can create any any topics under this Entire forum. It’s not just one topic, but instead, none works. So, for the public groups, anyone should be able to post without joining this. Even the members are complaining about it. If needed, I can give you moderator/admin access to the forum for your helping me out.

Sorry about the lack of information. See the updated information:

We are currently hosting on Amazon’s cloud running Amazon Web Services. Our PhP version is 5.4.31. Using the latest version of the Sweet Date theme. We have four major plugins installed. BuddyPress 2.2.0., bbPress 2.5.4, s2Member Framework Version 150203 + s2Member Pro v150203 and Event Espresso 4.6.6.p. The other plugin do not control permissions,groups our user classifications.

We are not sure exactly when this problem occurred because we were not using the friend request feature. However we did test this successfully in the past but are not sure of the plugin versions.

The changes we recently made were the following:
We had Buddy Press, s2Member and Event Espresso installed with the latest versions. We then installed latest version of bbPress. We created users groups and assigned the appropriate permission of user to subscribe and receive invites to join the group. We learned that members can not join a group unless they are friends with an individual already in a particular group.

When we send a friend request to a user that person receives the request. They are able to see the notification in their profile under Friends-Pending Request. At this point everything looks good. The user can see the requester image and can the ability to clink Accept Button or Reject Button. When either of the buttons are clicked nothing happens. We waited for exactly 2 minutes and just refreshed the page. We get the same actions if the Reject Button is selected also. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.

Ah nevermind. apparently it was “my-groups” duh lol. I don’t know why it wouldn’t show up as a slug though.
Could you possibly help me one another issue?
Within the groups I have changed all of the navigation menu using;

function jm_move_group_activity_tab() {
  global $bp;
  if (isset($bp->groups->current_group->slug) && $bp->groups->current_group->slug == $bp->current_item) {
    $bp->bp_options_nav[$bp->groups->current_group->slug]['forum']['name'] = 'new name';
    $bp->bp_options_nav[$bp->groups->current_group->slug]['home']['name'] = 'new name';
    $bp->bp_options_nav[$bp->groups->current_group->slug]['members']['name'] = 'new name';
    $bp->bp_options_nav[$bp->groups->current_group->slug]['admin']['name'] = 'new name';
    $bp->bp_options_nav[$bp->groups->current_group->slug]['send-invites']['name'] = 'new name';
  }
}
add_action('bp_init', 'jm_move_group_activity_tab');

Though, I am unable to get the “forum” slug to change. I have tried many other options though nothing seems to work. Do you know if there may be another script for just that?
