When creating an event the `Group members - visible only to group members` radio button option is visible but not accessible to select.

This is a snippet of the code from the EntityVisibilityForm.php file which might be part of the problem. Hopefully this helps.

   ];

    $form['default_visibility'] = [
      '#type' => 'select',
      '#title' => $this->t('Default visibility'),
      '#default_value' => $config->get('default_visibility'),
      '#options' => [
        'public' => $this->t('Public - visible to everyone including people who are not a member'),
        'community' => $this->t('Community - visible only to logged in members'),
      ],
    ];

Notice here's no 'group' option under 'public' and 'community'. I'm not a coder so this code snippet lead could mean nothing to the cause of the problem.

Hi there,

Group members - visible only to group members

Only becomes available when you select a Group in the Group selector above.
We need that context in order to know to whom (which group members) we should show whatever you are trying to create.

Hi Ronald. Selecting a Group doesn't make the 3rd 'group' option available.

Selecting a group from the selector does not activate or make the 3rd radio button available.

I just installed the latest version of OS via composer then spun up a new site through Acquia Devdesktop (same as the first site where I found the issue) and created a new group and selected that group while creating a new event and the 'group members' option isn't clickable there either. Would/could Acquia Devdesktop have something to do with it?

Of which group type is the group?

I just verified and it works here. By design you can only select "group members" visibility for a closed group. Changing the group may have impact on the visibility settings. For open and public there are other visibility restrictions.

Automatically closed - issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.

On custom groups is the same issue, `Group members - visible only to group members` option is visible but disabled and even when a group is selected. I understand that it works with closed and flexible groups but I think that it would be very useful to have it available to custom groups.

I tried to enable that option by modifying the function hook_social_group_allowed_visibilities_alter(array &$visibilities, $group_type_id) { on social_group.api.php on social_group like this:

function hook_social_group_allowed_visibilities_alter(array &$visibilities, $group_type_id) {
  if ($group_type_id === 'custom_public_group') {
    $visibilities['community'] = TRUE;
    $visibilities['group'] = TRUE;
  };

but it didnt change anything. Also by changing to ($group_type_id === 'NAME_OF_THE_CUSTOM_GROUP') but with no luck. Maybe i'm missing something from this issue: https://www.drupal.org/project/social/issues/3023660

What should be the steps to enable that option? Or if it is not possible that way, i think it could be useful to add that feature in the future.
