Can send invites tab in group be deactivated?

HI Mickey,

I know this is a little late from the time you posted but just in case anyone else is looking for the answer, I was able to accomplish this by adding the following to either the bp-custom.php file in the plugins folder (your theme’s functions.php file might work too):

function my_remove_blogs_nav() {
bp_core_remove_nav_item( ‘invite-anyone’ );
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘my_remove_blogs_nav’, 15 );

Hi Mickey,

When you say “one can uncheck invite to groups on initial invite email”, I assume that you mean the following: when sending an email invitation (example.com/members/my-name/invite-anyone), you can leave all group checkboxes unchecked. However, these checkboxes are unrelated to the *permission* to invite to those groups – it’s simply an option of whether you want to invite this specific person to groups at the time of invitation.

Andrew’s suggestion for removing the ‘invite-anyone’ tab is a good one, if you want to eliminate access to the ‘invite-anyone’ tab altogether.

The Settings panel (Dashboard > Settings > Invite Anyone > Access Control) has fine-grained settings for who is able to access the Send Invites tab, both on user profiles (email invitations) and within groups (group invitations). You can also control access on a per-group basis, by visiting the Manage tab of an individual group.
