Hi,
Thank you for the question.

1. Please put bp-custom.php in wp-content/plugins directory.

For more details, Please see https://buddydev.com/docs/buddypress-guides/what-is-bp-custom-php/

2. Forum is special case(added bu group extension).

You may want to do it like below.

function buddydev_disable_group_forums_by_non_site_admin() {
	if ( ! bp_is_group() || is_super_admin() ) {
		return;
	}

	$parent = groups_get_current_group()->slug . '_manage';
	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $parent, 'forum', 'groups' );
}

add_action( 'bp_actions', 'buddydev_disable_group_forums_by_non_site_admin', 200 );

Hi @brtekim,
Thank you for the question.

BuddyPress does not support it. If you enable commenting in activity on the forum discussion, it won’t be visible on the forum page.

I will suggest disabling the commenting in activity stream on forum discussions. You can do it form Dashboard->Settings->BuddyPress->Options page.

Hi Thomas,
Thank you for using the plugin.

Form the above link, It seems to me that the activity belongs to a user who has marked their profile private(or restricted to their friends etc).

If you can, Please switch as “John” and check their Privacy settings. This is an expected behaviour for private/restricted profile.

Please do let me know if that is not the case.

Hi Meagan,
Thank you for the question.

Is it about MediaPress or is it related to some other media plugin? Please let me know and I will assist.
