Hi @alersn,

bp_groups_get_group_types() is used into the group’s individual page header to list the group types it is assigned to. This function gets all registered group types : the ones that are created using the WP Admin screen and the ones that are registered using code. code argument of the array parameters is used to only get group types registered by code to make sure they can’t be deleted from the WP Admin Screen. BTW It’s not used into the Groups directory.

I’ve tested the “BuddyPress Create Group Type” plugin in BuddyPress 7.0.0. I confirm I’m able to set the Group Types of a Group during its creation process. It’s important to make it possible when adding a Group Type from the WP Admin Screen BuddyPress introduced in 7.0.0 activating the “Show on Group creation” checkbox. See the below screen capture.

Of course, you won’t get the tabs the “BuddyPress Create Group Type” as it uses another way to store the Group Type properties.

That being said without using this plugin Admin UI, you can still enjoy these tabs with some custom code. Here’s a Gist containing the one I’ve used from a bp-custom.php file.

Hi @kerriem

Then, you have no other choice than to:

If I were you, I would deactivate plugins one by one, testing if the issue is still there after each plugin deactivated to find the problematic one. I would probably start with the ones that were lately updated. If you can narrow the cause this way you’ll be able to contact the right plugin’s support.

Because you can test by yourself BuddyPress 7.0.0 on a WordPress 5.6 fresh install with no other plugins, it works 😉

I think it is a compatibility issure with Buddypress Registration Options.

Here is a support thread

I’m a huge nerd who uses BuddyPress. I don’t know everything but I would be on hand to answer questions. I’m a long time stack user. Back in the day when I worked for other people, I used SO all the time.

I’ve also run this idea past the Meta for WordPress SE (where BuddyPress is off-topic)
