Prevent subscribers from creating groups

    Hi,

    I want to prevent subscribers from creating groups.

    I have created the bp-custom.php inside the plugins folder and I am trying to accomplish this, by using the following

    apply_filters( 'bp_user_can_create_groups', $can_create, $restricted );

    but I didn’t manage to solve that.

    I would appreciate if anyone could help here.
    Thank you in advance.

    You could try something like this

    add_filter( 'bp_user_can_create_groups', 'create_groups_hide_for_roles' );
function create_groups_hide_for_roles($can)
	{
	$user = wp_get_current_user();
	$banned_roles = array(
		'subscriber',
		'editor' // fill in the roles who can't make groups
	);
	if (array_intersect($banned_roles, $user->roles))
	{
		return false;

	} else {

		return $can;
	}
}

    Edit the roles in the array as you see fit.
