Looking for a group query action similar to bp_pre_user_query_construct

[rekmla]

I have not found a filter that allows changing the group query prior to execution similar to the way 'bp_pre_user_query_construct' allows one to modify the user query.

Suggested filter 'bp_pre_group_query_construct' attached. Happy to use an alternative, if one exists.

Can you try the bp_parse_args() technique?

Instead of using BP_Groups_Template, you would focus on bp_has_groups().

If that doesn't work, let us know.

Thanks @r-a-y, bp_parse_args() works for templates and works in wp-admin. Neither approach works for groups_get_groups, but I can pass args to groups_get_groups.

We're filtering groups in a multi-network setup and haven't yet found all places where groups might need to be filtered on a given commons. Since the existing filter works, this ticket can be closed.
