"Add this user to my friendlist" block

subscribing

Or by appending a link add or remove at the end of the username like buddylist. Perhaps in template layer? Subscribing. Thanks

Hi,

* Adding a link to the user name can be done by theming the user name. However, I don't think it's a good idea

* Having a block with the possible links about that user seems like a _good_ idea. I will probably code it tomorrow.
But... before I do that, Marius, it is possible to create such a block using Views? I would prefer it as a solution...

Bye,

Merc.

What's the code for a custom link? So I can place it anywhere, not just in a block, which afterall is a big space.

Hi,

I just realised... (It was 5Am when I wrote my previous message)

This needs to be a custom block. It's very easy to write, but Views is not gonna do it. Sorry to bother you Marius :-D

If you look into friendlist_ui.module, you will find:

##################################################################
# UTILITY FUNCTIONS USEFUL TO SNIPSETS AND CODERS
##################################################################

Amongst those functions:

/**
 * An HTML-formatted list of links for EVERY relation type for
 * the user. This function is used by the hook_user() hook
 * to show links about the user.
 *
 * @param $account
 *   The user object (or id) you want the links for
 *
 * @return
 *   HTML items, formatted with theme_item_list
 */
function friendlist_ui_user_links($account) {
...

That's how you do it :-D

Hi,

OK, documentation fixed and block added.
Please let me know if there are any problems with ut.

Merc.

can someone please make a patch to integrate this code ?
i'm not really good in code integrating :)

Hi,

Why did you reopen this?
The request was about having a block that listed the available links for the content author.
This has been implemented -- all you have to do is add the block.

If the block doesn't work as intended, please reopen this.

If you have any other questions or doubts, please open a new ticket.

Bye!

Merc.

oh sorry sorry
i haven't recognize it

After installing the Friendlist module, all you need to do is add a line like

print (friendlist_ui_get_link('add', $node->uid, 'friend'));

to your node.tpl.php template, or other functional area that you want the "Add to friends" link to show up. Integrating the functionality seems easy at the beginning (which is where I am at). The readme file lays out the use of this and other functions.

Hi,

(thanks chicagotech)

Merc.
