Yes, definitely helpful. Any idea how to implement the solution within the groups index page as a bulk option as oppose to having to go into the individual group?

I tried using wordpress’s bulk admin similar to the example pertaining to load-users.php, but it isn’t working.

add_filter( 'handle_bulk_actions-toplevel_page_bp-groups', 'add_bpgroups_to_bpgroup', 10, 3 );

function add_bpgroups_to_bpgroup($redirect_to, $doaction, $group_ids) {
  trigger_error($doaction);
  trigger_error($redirect_to);
    if( bp_is_active('groups') ):

      if ( $doaction !== 'assign_parent_group' ) {
          return $redirect_to;
      }
      trigger_error(print_r($group_ids,TRUE));
      $redirect_to = add_query_arg( 'groups_assigned' , implode(',', $group_ids) , $redirect_to );
    endif;
    return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter( 'bulk_actions-toplevel_page_bp-groups', 'register_bulk_assign_parent_action' );

function register_bulk_assign_parent_action ($bulk_actions) {
 $bulk_actions['assign_parent_group'] = __( 'Assign Parent Group', 'assign_parent_group');
 //form submission
 add_action( 'admin_footer', function() { ?>
     <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
         jQuery("#doaction").click(function(e){
             if(jQuery("select[name='action'] :selected").val()=="assign_parent_group") { e.preventDefault();
                 gid=prompt("Enter a Group ID","1");
                 if (gid != null) {
                   jQuery(".wrap form").append('<input type="hidden" name="bp_gid" value="'+gid+'" />').submit();
                 }
             }
         });
     </script>
 <?php
 });
 return $bulk_actions;
}

add_action( 'admin_notices', 'bulk_assign_parent_action_admin_notice' );

function bulk_assign_parent_action_admin_notice() {
  if ( ! empty( $_REQUEST['groups_assigned'] ) && ! empty( $_REQUEST['assigned_group'] ) ) {
    $groups_assigned =  $_REQUEST['groups_assigned'] ;
    $parent_id = $_REQUEST['assigned_group'];
    $parent_group = groups_get_group($parent_id);
    if ($parent_group->id == 0) {
      printf( '<div id="message" class="error">Unknown group ID %s</div>', $parent_id);
      return;
    }
    $group_ids = explode(',' , $groups_assigned);
    foreach ($group_ids as $group_id) {
      $group = groups_get_group( $group_id );
      if (false === groups_edit_group_settings($group_id, $group->enable_forum, $group->status, false, $parent_id )) {
        printf( '<div id="message" class="error">Failed to add group %s to %s.</div>', $group->name, $parent_group->name);
        break;
      }

    }

    printf( '<div id="message" class="updated fade">Successfully ' .
      _n( 'assigned %s group',
        'assigned %s groups',
        $groups_assigned,
        'assign_parent_group'
      ) . 'to %s</div>', $groups_assigned, $group_name );
  }

It fires the
add_filter( ‘bulk_actions-toplevel_page_bp-groups’, ‘register_bulk_assign_parent_action’ );

correctly but seems to completely ignore

add_filter( ‘handle_bulk_actions-toplevel_page_bp-groups’, ‘add_bpgroups_to_bpgroup’, 10, 3 );

Any ideas?

No pages will register, however WP says that the settings are saved.

I also have Buddypress Version 2.9.3 and WordPress Version 4.9.4

Thanks for pointing this out @espellcaste!

Would it be good for me, or anyone else, to add some info to the ticket(s) (not sure if https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7393 marked as dupe is kicking it back to the other one, of if the other is kicking it back to this one) –

anyway, would it be good, or be considered rude to mention that this may be required by the ggrp thing that the countries in Europe are expecting web sites to provide with possible fines for violating?

I kind of want to add some info to one of the tickets there, again not sure which one would be the appropriate one, but would like to add that since they are thinking about data in regards to groups, we may need to consider stripping info that others may have posted, whether it be in groups, or in private messages, as someone could end up with an export of info that had been set to be deleted or otherwise blocked / removed from the other user – and so it may be innaopriate to include messaging from groups or otherwise that was not added by the user him/herself.

Also I think we would need a way to include media, pictures used for avatars and used via plugins like rtmedia / mediapress in order to not just be thorough and kind, but to also be in compliance with the ggrp thing.

<- obviously I am not a lawyer and not well versed in this thing as far as all that goes.

However on another side I think exporting the data as a backup will potentially increase the suablity of buddypress exponentially as well. I am looking into helping spawn some methods for people to more easily launch a bp for their family musings and another instance for friend circles – this would be great during the term of hosting – but backups would be needed to prevent loss of presious family photos and such should a hack occur, or hosting not get paid, etc.

So backups, and a method for auto exporting I think is the missing piece at this point to really push for a much greater adoption of BP, which is really close to being a viable, and more private / controlled replacements for FB at this point.

the time is ripe for this.. hope we can make it happen before end of school year somehow.
