HI

Thank you for maintaining this Nice Module.
I am in middle of developing a site with UR which needs a facility to restrict access of user relationships. Means, who are allowed to view who. for e.g, online friend can't view user's Girl Friend(s) :)

how can I achieve this ?

Please look at user permissions defined by the module... The "view user relationships" permission is what allows people to see each other's relationships. If you want to show certain relationship types but not others, then it's best to remove this permission completely, and use Views to show relationships only of certain types where you need them.

Hi

it works well on some situations (role based), but the actual need is

per user configuration, i.e. one user may allow her Colleagues to see her friends or parents, but other user may not like it.

"using the views" is a solution for global, not per user setup,

It could be very nice if we have this in filter or relationships/context on views & a configuration page for users.

I think this is User to UR Type access, (User to User access is little more complex.)

Thanks & Regards
Vinoth

If I understand correctly, you want to give your users the ability to say "I want related users of type A to see my related users of types A, B, X". That might be useful, but I don't think many sites would be so complicated. You should implement this as an extension module, rather than a core feature of UR.

This is far too edge case for the main module.
