how to hide a plugin generated buddypress tab

I would like to hide a plugin generated buddypress tab, so after looking around I found this code and modified it a little:
```
<?php
function bp_remove_nav_item() {
if(current_user_cannot(“access_s2member_level2″))
global $bp;

bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $bp->profile->slug, ‘change-avatar’ );
}
add_action( ‘wp’, ‘bp_remove_nav_item’ );
?>
```
This worked perfectly well so i edited the following line:
bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $bp->profile->slug, ‘change-avatar’ );
to
bp_core_remove_nav_item('listings');

And now the full code looks like this;
```
function bp_remove_nav_item() {
if(is_user_logged_in("true") )
if(current_user_cannot("access_s2member_level2"))
    global $bp;

    bp_core_remove_nav_item('listings');
}
add_action( 'wp', 'bp_remove_nav_item' );
```
However this removes the ‘listings’ tab for all, any idea what im doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,

Please do not double post.

try this:
```
function urbanfix_remove_nav_item() {

   if( current_user_cannot("access_s2member_level2") )
       bp_core_remove_nav_item('listings');
}
add_action( 'wp', 'urbanfix_remove_nav_item' );
```

Re Sorry: no problem, this forum can be buggy.

>why am i using the urbanfix_remove

You mean as a function name? It’s usually better not to use ‘bp_(etc)’ to avoid confusion and more importantly conflicts with BP code or code from other plugins.
