Training Group not Displayed in wp-admin or Badges

[iandunn]

When the make/Training team formed, I created a BuddyPress group for them on profiles.wordpress.org (ID 15), just like the other teams have, and then assigned its members to the group.

The team member's profiles should have automatically started showing their group's badge, but they aren't, and the group itself is not showing up in WP_List_Tables in wp-admin.

The group shows up and looks fine if you visit it directly at ​https://profiles.wordpress.org/wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-groups&gid=15&action=edit

The direct reason it's not showing up is that the 3 groupmeta rows that should have been inserted during creation weren't, so the JOIN from the group to groupmeta table fails. I haven't been able to determine why they weren't inserted, though.

I tried manually inserting them, and the INSERT succeeded, but when I tried SELECTing, the new rows weren't there.

I'm not sure if it's a MySQL replication issue, or a caching bug, or something else.

Started looking at this today, and fell down a related rabbit-hole: ​https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6277

Will pick this back up where I left off asap.

Possibly related... When I add users to groups, the count doesn't go up on page=bp-groups. But that's been happening for some time; I was just reminded of it today.

In 1415:

Profiles Association Handler: Also change the groups meta table name via 'bp_groups_meta_tables' filter.

Fixes #918.
Props ocean90.

@samuelsidler: The fix for this also fixes the non-incrementing member counts. The counts themselves aren't updated until it gets recounted (such as when a person is added or removed). They could be forced refreshed, but I didn't think their temporary inaccuracy is a big deal.
