Thanks @modemlooper.
My question is not how to display it. My question is how to capture it.
Currently I assign it to a variable like this `$guid = bp_get_group_id();`
The problem is that while I am in the loop of groups & discussions, the current group id is not being captured. `bp_get_group_id()` returns an empty string or NULL.
Also, I issued a bug report on it as well.
`<?php
global $bp;
$guid = $bp->group->id;
// do something with $guid
?>`
@modemlooper
Just tested your recommended code.
`$guid` is still empty during the loop in my Groups.
what are you trying to do with variable?
@modemlooper:
`
if (groups_is_user_mod( get_current_user_id(), $guid ) == “1”) return;
elseif (groups_is_user_admin( get_current_user_id(), $guid ) == “1”) return;
else …
`
Everything else works — `groups_is_user_mod()`, `groups_is_user_admin()`, and `get_current_user_id()`.
Right now I have hardcoded the Group ID and assigned it to var $guid. But I want to do this dynamically so I don’t have to manually hardcode certain group ids.
Here’s what I want to get to work:
`
if (groups_is_user_mod( get_current_user_id(), bp_get_group_id() ) == “1”) return;
elseif (groups_is_user_admin( get_current_user_id(), bp_get_group_id() ) == “1”) return;
`
Thanks for helping !
did you try
`bp_group_id()`
In BP most get functions are wrapped if you looked at the function bp_group_id() it would echo the value of bp_get_group_id()
@modemlooper,
Tried `bp_group_id()` — no luck.
what about
`if ( bp_group_is_mod() )
if ( bp_group_is_admin() )`
@modemlooper,
I remember trying those last week and ended up having to resort to the if() statements I have included earlier in this thread.
I have progressed to the point of having to hard code the group ID because I can’t capture it on the fly while in the Group section of the Loop.
You can get the group id but I think groups_is_user_mod will not work in the loop
What are you trying to accomplish because if ( bp_group_is_admin() ) works for me
If you are trying to show content based on group role then that would work
@modemlooper (having technical trouble posting right now…stay tuned)
@modemlooper (bp forum not letting me post nicely, so I am splitting my reply in 2 parts)
@modemlooper,
Out-of-the-box, BP has a Send Invites link on the Groups forum. We don’t want that link unless you are a Group Admin or Group Moderator. Currently, we only have 1 private group set at this time with a group moderator. It is Group 17. But I know we will be getting more and more of these instances and I want to avoid hard coding the Groups each time to control the Send Invites link.
See my code below from a plug-in I wrote. It is in next thread post.
@modemlooper,
MAJOR FRUSTRATION — BP FORUM TELLS ME “It looks like you’ve already said that!”
@modemlooper,
let’s start a new thread. BP Is getting too deep in my shorts here.
