Hi,
I have a small community site running on 5.x and Buddylist module. I will soon upgrade to 6.x, so I need to choose the appropriate module to replace Buddylist. As I notice there are quite a few: User Relationships, FriendsList, Flag Friends etc
Please help to choose!
Most important features that I need:
* Easy import of data from Buddylist 5.x module. In 5.x version it was a 2-way relationship of "Friends", which now need to be ported into 1-way "Follower" relationship. If the other person follows him too, then they become "Mutual-followers", which is another relationship type.
* Good integration in terms of content-privacy and profile-privacy:
--- Visible to all,
--- Visible only to my followers,
--- Visible only to my mutual-followers
* ability for users to tag and thus to construct their own "Lists" of friends, like we see on Facebook (hopefully through some user-friendly AJAX). The original Buddylist had this functionality, albeit in a very primitive form.
* The "Contacts" section must function as a sort of e-Addressbook -- with alphabetical listings, and re-orderable listings (so I guess a good integration with Views and Content Profile is essential).
* Good integration with other social-networking utilities like Private messaging, Invite etc
My instinct at the moment is to go with FriendsList module. But it is still in .dev
