Hello Jerome,
I get a blank page after a friend request instead of the "friendship requested message"
I use Elgg 1.6.1
Please help..

@sandeep: what is the url of the blank page? http:/
After making a friend request you should be sent back to the page you came from.

when i decline a friend request,I get a blank page with this in my address bar
When a friendship request is made,I again get a blank page with this on the address bar

I downloaded and installed, Found that the aproval process failed due to linking to a invalid page.
listing.php line 32 and 33 has a URL of
actions/friendrequest/approve?guid
It should be
action/friendrequest/approve?guid
Remove the (s) from the word "actions" and the aproval then works.
I am using 1.6.1

Any solution for the friend request blank page?
elggboy 949 days ago
@CaptJacks Bar: there is no listing.php in this plugin. You probably copied the files of this plugin over the 'old' version (1.5).
Please remove the entire plugin and install this version (you won't lose any requests)

@elggboy: no, I don't have a 1.6 installation to test on. When I do, I will look into the problem

Hi
Please do not consider my last mail. It was a problem of misconfiguration of the translation file.
Thanks

Hi! Is there any way to link it with invite friends or any of the contact importers? For example, even if someone is a member and they are emailed an invite using their Elgg site's email address, it doesn't show up on the invitee's Friend Request page nor on the inviter's Friend Request page. This is probably a tall order, no?

@Lawrence: at this point in time I don't have the intension to make such a link.
Who knows, maybe if the far future?

i found a problem... well at least i see it as a problem...
users able to write on other people msg board although they are not that person's friend. I find that to be a huge problem (stalking, harrasment, etc. ). Is there a way where u can't write on there msg board if they aren't your friends?
muffnman89 924 days ago
@muffnman89: this has nothing to do with this plugin. It's how the messageboard plugin was written. This plugin has no influence on that.

Thanks for the clarification

@marzoni are you sure you extracted all file in the ZIP. It sounds like you miss eighter start.php or manifest.xml

@muffnman89
Try to set your messageboard configuration to FRIENDS so that only friend can see it and write on it.
