- Hello - Do you guys have any plugins that would allow for some extra group permissions? 
 I have a group where I would like only admin/mods to be able to post activity (not the members of the group).- Hope it makes sense. 🙂 - Thank you! 
- Hi Katrine, 
 Thank you for the question.- Here is some code that does the opposite(keeps on for groups but disables on sitewide activity stream etc). 
 https://buddydev.com/support/forums/topic/hiding-whats-new-form-in-member-activity-but-not-in-groups/page/2/#post-44896- I hope you are able to customize it. If not, Please let me know and I will share an updated copy for your use case. - Regards

- Hello Brajesh - I did manage to get it to work with the following code (if anyone else in here needs it in the future): - Restrict in single group 
 `function restrict_activity_posting_for_specific_group( $can_post, $user_id, $group_id ) {
 // The ID of the group you want to restrict posting in (replace with the actual group ID)
 $restricted_group_id = 123; // Example group ID- // Only apply the restriction to the specific group 
 if ( $group_id == $restricted_group_id ) {
 // Check if the user is an admin or moderator
 if ( !bp_group_is_admin( $user_id, $group_id ) && !bp_group_is_mod( $user_id, $group_id ) ) {
 return false; // Don’t allow posting
 }
 }- // If not the restricted group, or the user is admin/mod, allow posting 
 return $can_post;
 }
 add_filter( ‘bp_activity_can_post’, ‘restrict_activity_posting_for_specific_group’, 10, 3 );`- Restrict in multiple groups 
 `function restrict_activity_posting_for_specific_groups( $can_post, $user_id, $group_id ) {
 // The IDs of the groups you want to restrict posting in (replace with actual group IDs)
 $restricted_group_ids = array( 123, 456, 789 ); // Example group IDs- // Check if the group ID is in the restricted group IDs array 
 if ( in_array( $group_id, $restricted_group_ids ) ) {
 // Only apply the restriction if the user is not an admin or moderator
 if ( !bp_group_is_admin( $user_id, $group_id ) && !bp_group_is_mod( $user_id, $group_id ) ) {
 return false; // Don’t allow posting
 }
 }- // If not in the restricted groups or the user is an admin/mod, allow posting 
 return $can_post;
 }
 add_filter( ‘bp_activity_can_post’, ‘restrict_activity_posting_for_specific_groups’, 10, 3 );`
- Hi Katrine, 
 Thank you for sharing.
 I am glad you managed to find the solution.- Regards
