Add this snippet to bp-custom.php and give it a try.

function bpex_hide_profile_menu_tabs() {

	if( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) :

	if ( bp_is_user() && !is_super_admin() && !bp_is_my_profile() ) {
	//	BP's profile main menu items. Comment those to show.
	//	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'profile' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'friends' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'groups' );
	//	exist only if you use bbPress
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' ); 

	//	BP's profile main menu items. Comment those to show.
	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'personnal' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'mentions' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'favorites' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'friends' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'groups' );
	}
	endif;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_hide_profile_menu_tabs', 15 );

It’s the same principle, but not the same syntax since 2.6

To hide tabs on groups, you need to specify the component. Note that all menu items (nav and subnav items) are considered as sub-nav, they have not the same distinction as on member or activity menus.

Use another function for groups. Try this.

function bpex_remove_group_tabs() {  

	if ( ! bp_is_group() ) {
		return;
	}

	$slug = bp_get_current_group_slug();

		// hide items to all users except site admin
	if ( !is_super_admin() ) {

	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $slug, 'members' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $slug, 'send-invites' );
	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $slug, 'admin' );
	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $slug, 'forum' );
	}

}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'bpex_remove_group_tabs' );

Navigation API

I exactly aimed to remove (setting-profile visibility) from user menu for all users.

danbp, I learned from you a lot today! THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME HELPING ME!
I know it is not related to topic directly, but could you give a hint about changing the name of ‘Forum’ and ‘Group’ in user profile and ‘Forum’ on the group page!?

@socialc, since 2.6 and the new Nav API, there is a much simplier possibility as the translation file to change nav item names.

@marcono, try this; not sure you learned, below snippet is on Nav API examples i indicated previously. 😉

function bpcodex_rename_group_tabs() {

    if ( ! bp_is_group() ) {
        return;
    }
   
    buddypress()->groups->nav->edit_nav( array( 'name' => __( 'Group Discussion', 'buddypress' ) ), 'forum', bp_current_item() );
}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'bpcodex_rename_group_tabs' );

function bpcodex_rename_profile_tabs() {
 
      buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'name' => __( 'My Buddy Forums', 'textdomain' ) ), 'forums' );
      buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'name' => __( 'My Buddy Groups', 'textdomain' ) ), 'groups' );
 
}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'bpcodex_rename_profile_tabs' );

No, not for the moment. We’re handling here about profile and group nav, not about Group or Member Directory nav.

If you have a snippet who works for the Directory, feel free to add it to the Nav Api examples. Codex Contributors are always welcome.

The Home tab is the default one. If you remove that tab, BP has no way to know where to output the other group tabs content. If you remove Home(aka activity) you should define another landing tab.

But when you want to modify groups, you shouldn’t define ‘profile’, but ‘groups’. (read what you wrote!)
For the profile landing tab, see this codex page.

For groups, you can try this snippet. This let you define a different landing tab for each of your groups (not profile, ok ?). 😉

function bpfr_custom_group_default_tab($default_tab){
	/**
	 * class_exists() is recommanded to avoid problems during updates 
	 * or when Groups Component is deactivated
	 */
	if ( class_exists( 'BP_Group_Extension' ) ) : // 
	
	$group=groups_get_current_group();//get the current group
	
	if(empty($group))
	return $default_tab;
	
	switch($group->slug){
		
		case 'kill-bill': // group name (use slug format)
		$default_tab='forum';
		break;
		
		case 'groupe-2014':
		$default_tab='members';
		break;
		
		default:		
		$default_tab='home';// the original default landing tab
		break;
		
	}
	
	return $default_tab;
	
	endif; // end if ( class_exists( 'BP_Group_Extension' ) )
}
add_filter('bp_groups_default_extension','bpfr_custom_group_default_tab');

I use that function bpfr_custom_group_default_tab and it works.
Have you replaced the group slug to yours in ‘case’ ? This must fit the exact slug, the one you see by mouse over the group name in the bottom left corner of your brower (and normally in the browser’s address bar).

Please ask one question at a time. Make an effort to be clear. It’s difficult to follow your post !

– I want to do this on profile: details, item names…

– I want to do this on groups: details, item names…

NB 1: if you want to change the landing tab for ALL groups, you can use:

define( 'BP_GROUPS_DEFAULT_EXTENSION', 'members' );

With this, all groups will use the group members directory as landing tab instead the group activity.
If you want a different landing tab for each group, use the snippet and don’t use define.

Changing Internal Configuration Settings

NB 2: the tab name has no influence on the landing tab. The name and the slug are handled separately, precisely because of that

NB 3: where you put functions in bp-custom has no importance.

Could you wrap the area you want seen by only the logged in user with bp_is_my_profile()

Something like this..

<?php if (bp_is_my_profile()) : ?>
show this
<?php endif; ?>

Thanks! it works for me.

Thx *danbp*
With define( ‘BP_GROUPS_DEFAULT_EXTENSION’, ‘members’ ); the default tab for all groups (private and public) DOES change.
But if the user is not a member of a private group, he cannot see the group’s page to request a membership. However, if the user is already a member of private group, of course everything is OK and the default tab is changed as the same as the public groups.
If I don’t remove ‘home’ tab in the group pages, then everything is fine though!

Stop ! Please, i allreay answered to this. Now it is time to learn and experiment by yourself.
