Get group details from group_id – BuddyPress Snippet
This is a very simple thing to do but it often takes a lots of time to find.
Here is how to get group details if you have a group id:
$group = groups_get_group( array( 'group_id' => $group_id ) );
You could also add ‘load_users’ => true in the array if you want the members.
Below is an example of the output:
BP_Groups_Group Object ( [id] => 15 [creator_id] => 1 [name] => Demo Group [slug] => demo-group [description] => This is a test group description. [status] => public [enable_forum] => 1 [date_created] => 2013-06-19 11:20:04 [admins] => Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [user_id] => 1 [user_login] => johndoe [user_email] => johndoe@dessky.com [user_nicename] => johndoe [is_admin] => 1 [is_mod] => 0 ) ) [total_member_count] => 4 [last_activity] => 2013-06-20 11:20:04 [is_member] => 1
