Community Groups: Send Communication to

So the answer is basically no unless you want to nuke it for ALL group types in the system.

From my case:

"Hello Jamie,

I'm writing in reference to case number 019888115, which we have open regarding how to hide the "Send Communication To" button from members of community groups.

Thanks for reaching us about this. Turning this button off for the community groups is possible, but will have a much larger impact across the entire system. The option that controls this button will be within Core > Settings > Inbox settings: the Bulk Messaging option. Switching this option to Off will remove this button from all members of not only that community group, but all groups across the system (academic class rosters, advisory rosters, etc.).

At this time, there is not a more granular option in the system, based on role-access. I do suggest you visit the enhancement portal if you would like to see this added as a functionality. Our development team reviews the suggestions and feedback for future implementation. https://blackbaudk12.ideas.aha.io/ideas/"

My response

"So just want to get some clarifiaction. I impersonated a student in our system. When I visit multiple different types of groups that they belong to: Advisory, Athletics, Academics, Dorms - The student, as a member, doesn't have access to that dropdwon, but if they are in a Community group, they can see it.

Or put another way: For all group types in the system, except for community groups, only the group leaders have access to "Send Commonications to" dropdown. The lone exception is that everyone in a community group has that dropdown displayed."
