    All our groups will be set to private and any member can invite new members. The group settings tab is now useless, but I cannot figure out how to remove it from the group creation process.We have the BuddyPress Group Tabs Creator Pro plugin, and I thought it could override the default tabs, but I can’t seem to make it work. Can I do this with the plugin or is it even possible with in-house code?

    Hi Matthew,
    Welcome to BuddyDev forums.

    The tabs creators pro allows you to add any tab/sub tab. It allows removing top level tabs from group but not from group creation.

    You can use the following code to remove th settings tab from group creation.

    
/**
 * Remove group settings from group creation.
 */
add_filter( 'groups_create_group_steps', function ( $steps ) {
	unset( $steps['group-settings'] );

	return $steps;
} );

    Hope that helps.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Thank you, that got me almost to where I need.

    That removed it from the group creation phase. Any idea how I can remove the settings tab from the group manage sub-nav.

    Hi Matthew,
    Please add the following lines too

    

/**
 * Remove group admin/settings sub nav.
 */
function buddydev_remove_group_admin_settings() {

	if ( ! bp_is_group() ) {
		return;
	}

	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( groups_get_current_group()->slug . '_manage', 'group-settings', 'groups' );

	// reattach screen function to avoid 404.
	add_action( 'bp_screens', 'groups_screen_group_admin', 3 );
}

add_action( 'bp_template_redirect', 'buddydev_remove_group_admin_settings', 1 );

    That will remove the settings from manage too.

    Hope that helps.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hello, that was helpful, thank you!

    Is there a way to do the same for the bbPress “Forum” tab? I have looked everywhere but can’t get it to work!

    Hi George,
    Thank you.

    Do you want to remove it from group creation?

    Hi Brajesh.

    Yeah, I want to remove it from the group creation and also from the Manage settings, just like how you showed with the group settings.

    Doing this is not working:

    add_filter( 'groups_create_group_steps', function ( $steps ) {
	unset( $steps['forum'] );
	return $steps;
} );

    Hi George,
    BuddyPress extensions add their nav very differently(directly accessing globala nd won’t be available when teh above filter is used).

    Here is a temporary solution(It only hides nav links not the actual handler attached with the forum).

    
add_action( 'bp_actions', function () {

	$bp = buddypress();

	if ( isset( $bp->groups->group_creation_steps ) ) {
		unset( $bp->groups->group_creation_steps['forum'] );
	}

}, 10 );

    Regards
    Brajesh
