 * Repositioning groups do not take effect in the front end. Why?
    Also impossible
   to subgroups. 🙁

 * Hi Flam696 –
 * Re-arranging groups vertically has no effect in BuddyPress, since BP groups have
   no sequence. However, you should be able to create subgroups by dragging and 
   dropping.
 * Is this not working for you? More details would be helpful in understanding the
   situation.

 * I am experiencing a similar issue…
 * 1/. I create groups, some intended as parents and others as children.
 * 2/. In Organize, I position the groups in the order I want, with the parent group
   to the left and, directly underneath each parent, the related child group indented
   to the right as shown in your screenshot.
 * 3/. When I press ‘Save groups’, it reverts to what it was originally with all
   the groups on the same level.

 * Got that sorted by installing the BuddyPress Croup Hierarchy plugin…
 * Works great with one exception. The current version is trying to get it of hide
   the group list (which will get very long) so only the tree shows. This is shown
   as being Experimental… and it doesn’t render nicely at the moment. I don’t recommed
   selecting this option until it is sorted.
 * The good thin now is I can have main topics with a series of related discussion
   threads taking place by using the group tree function.
 * Thanks Dean! I look forward to the ‘experiment’ working.
