 * Hi Boone,
 * Thanks for all your work on this plugin, it’s brill.
 * I’m wondering whether there is a way to check if a group has Docs enabled outside
   the loop. At the moment I am generating custom nav menus and I can’t find a way
   to query whether a group has Docs enabled.
 * Thanks!

 * A function within the loop would be fine too actually – I harvest group information
   using a loop into an array to build my nav from so inside the loop would be just
   as good.
 * Thanks again!

 * Get the group settings with `$group_settings = bp_docs_get_group_settings( $group_id)`.
   Everything you need should be there.
