Comment to Allow Standard members to send Friend request to private profiles

  • If I'm understanding this correctly, people that choose "Friends Only" for just the profile visibility, this hides the Friend Request button?

    If so, this field should not have any influence over said button, nor should the Who can contact me field.

    Profile Visibility should only allow/disallow viewing the profile contents, not hiding elements of the profile navigation UI.

    Who Can Contact Me: Should only tamper with the Message button.

    There really needs to be an additional privacy field that users can select to show/hide the Friend Request buttons across the site (Profile/Profile Cards).

    • Hi @LoneTreeLeaf

      Yes, you understand correctly. If a member sets his privacy "Visible to: Friends" (other two possibilities are set to Public) then there is no posibility for members that are not "Friend" to send Friend request. And this is NOT OK by my opinion

      • I agree, it just adds an extra layer of redundancy between users.

        • Not only that....; The problem is that someone who just become a Member of UNA site and starts to explore it this new Member can't send Friend request to no one with privacy set to "Friends only" ....

          Now imagine that all users have set their settings to "Friends only"....., they will have a big problem finding out why they can not have any friends on the site....
