Module : Friend System Module Author : Thomas Seifert <thomas.seifert@mysnip.de> This module handles a separate controlcenter panel for replacing the buddies system with a friend system which allows friend requests and allowing / rejecting these and also provides a friend list in the profile which is shown depending on the privacy settings set by the user himself. Development of this module was sponsored by lerepairedesmotards.com ! Installation instructions: -------------------------- - Unpack the archive; - Move the directory "friends" to the directory "mods" within your Phorum installation; - Login as administrator in Phorum's administrative interface and go to the "Modules" section; - Enable the module "Friend System Module". Features and using them: ------------------------ This module adds a controlcenter panel, which allows the user to search for users and requesting friendship with them. The other user is sent an email about the request and he can approve or deny the friendship request in the controlcenter panel. (code in templates/emerald/cc_panel_list.tpl / cc_panel_search.tpl) Similarly to the waiting moderator requests or new pm message notifications there is the possibility to show a notice about waiting friendship requests in the phorum header. The code can be used as follows: {IF USER->NOTICE->FRIENDS}<a class="icon icon-user-add" href="{URL->NOTICE->FRIENDS}">{LANG->mod_friends->WaitingFriendRequests}</a>{/IF} The user also has a way to define, who can see his friend list. (code in templates/emerald/profile_list.tpl) The setting for that is shown in the privacy settings controlcenter panel. (code in templates/emerald/cc_privacy_panel.tpl) Also a variable is available in the profile to show some information depending on the friendship status. That variable is named IS_FRIEND. You can use it like follows in the profile.tpl: {IF PROFILE->IS_FRIEND} ... output something else {/IF} The "Add Buddy" URL in the profile is overridden by the URL to add a friend request by this module. The text is also changed. Feel free to modify that directly in profile.tpl. Also all buddy-handling functions in the private messaging are disabled by this module. As they CANNOT removed from the output you need to remove the link to it in pm.tpl on your own. The link looks like <li><a {IF PM_PAGE "buddies"}class="current" {/IF} href="{URL->BUDDIES}">{LANG->Buddies}</a></li> You should remove that full line. If a user is still accessing the buddy functions by its direct URL he is getting a "access denied" message. Some more implementation details: --------------------------------- The system adds another table to the phorum database which holds the waiting friend requests. When a friend request is approved, the users are added as mutual friends to the regular phorum tables, so that regular phorum functions for handling buddies can be used afterwards. A friend is assumed as a mutual buddy - keep this in mind if working with the lower level buddy functions. To keep the "mutual buddies" in sync I therefore recommend to clean out the buddies tables on installation of this module.
