Hi Glenn,
Will you please let me know if you are using Blog Categories for groups plugin or not?

1. If you are using Blog Categories for the groups plugin, you do not need any code to display forms. It is handled by the plugin. In this case, the posts will appear in group activity stream and the posts will be listed under blog menu on the single group page

2. If you are not using Blog Categories for groups, In that case, you will need to list the post yourself. Your best bet is using WP_Query and creating a custom loop. Please do understand that BP Simple Front End post plugin is a low level tool and except rendering/handling the posting, It does not do anything. Other plugins use the functionality provided by BPSEF and add their own listing etc.

Hope I am able to clarify.

Hi Glenn,
Had a talk with Ravi.

Are you using the Blog Categories plugin or have created your own plugin? If you have created your own plugins, are you using Group Extension? If yes, The code can be put inside the display() function of the extension.

To assist you better, we will need to understand the context. Can you please provide a screenshot(please link here) and mark the place where you want the form to be displayed. one of us will be able to assist you quickly.

Hi Glenn,
This function needs to be posted in the file where you want to display the new post/edit post form.

Here is how the Simple Front ENd post plugin works:-

1. A plugin/theme registers a form with various settings for the post form using `bp_new_simple_blog_post_form’

2. You will need to display the form somewhere. to display the form you use

$form = bp_get_simple_blog_post_form('my form');
if ( $form ) {//if this is a valid form
 $form->show();//it will show the form
}

We use the name of the form that we registered earlier. If you don’t have access to the template files, we can convert the code from second step to shortcodes and use it inside the post/page if needed.

Hope that helps.
Regards
