Consider about creating a specific widget for groups, that might work for you.

ok I still need to know how to do that

Sorry, I cannot provide you with specific information on how to create a widget for groups.

How do I add widgets to groups? please help!!

well without the help of staff who you would think know more than me lol (no offense guys) I was able to finally solve this issue for most plugins but be warned this may not work for every single plugin.

go to your plugin folder and find the activate.php and add this line 

$event = new BASE_CLASS_EventCollector('feed.collect_widgets');OW::getEventManager()->trigger($event);
foreach( $event->getData() as $widgetInfo ){    if ($widgetInfo['place'] == 'group')    {        try         {            $placeWidget = BOL_ComponentAdminService::getInstance()->addWidgetToPlace($widget, $widgetInfo['place']);            BOL_ComponentAdminService::getInstance()->addWidgetToPosition($placeWidget, $widgetInfo['section'], $widgetInfo['order']);        }        catch ( Exception $e )        {
        }    }}

please note so far this method has only been tested on the radio plugin and cbox plugin 

Joseph, after you added the code how did you activate/ mod the group page?
I also assume you edited the activate.php which was in the plugin>group folder?
Also what line did you start your code below?

Btw, thanks for figuring this out.

no you want to edit the plugin for the widget you wish to add to groups and after doing so deactivate your plugin and then reactivate it

you should not need to edit the groups plugin at all

Ah, I see what you mean.
Now I got it sort of working. I am using this option in my groups to showcase the video plus plug in. I noticed it only works in one group (group1). As for my other groups videos are not showing, but the box is there but its not pulling videos like in the group 1.  When I go to view all, in the ones that are not pulling, I get "INVALID_URL".

Other then these minor issues it nice to have the option for a widget.

yeah that could be an issue with that specific plugin I used this on the cbox plugin and was able to use the cbox in every group

I will look over the code and test a few more plugins. I just need to figure out another issue I am having; which I stated above 'INVALID_URI". I think its (video plus plugin)conflicting with the code you posted, as well as some parts of my site.
Like I said I will try a few more plugins with your code.

Maybe we will be lucky to have more options, like yours,  with the next update :)

Once again for taking the time to figure this out.

Good Job Joe!
