Sad but the mutual friendship happening dosen't work for me either. Do you have any idea? THANKS

solution for mutal friendhip.

copy the following to engine/lib/relationships.php

function isRegistering()
    {
        global $CONFIG;
        $p = parse_url($CONFIG->wwwroot);
        $base_url = $p['scheme'] . "://" . $p['host'];
        if ((isset($p['port'])) && ($p['port']))
        {
            $base_url .= ":" . $p['port'];
        }
        $uri = preg_replace('#\?.*|\#.*#', '', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
        $url = $base_url . $uri;
       
        return stripos($url, $CONFIG->wwwroot . 'action/register') === 0;
    }

then replace the bellow code to the following one in friend_request/start.php

if (($object instanceof ElggRelationship) && ($event == 'create') && ($object_type == 'friend') ) {
            //We don't want anything happening here... (no email/etc)
        }
        return true; //Shouldn't get here...
    }

replace with this one

if (($object instanceof ElggRelationship) && ($event == 'create') && ($object_type == 'friend') ) {
            //We don't want anything happening here... (no email/etc)

            if (! isRegistering())
            {
                return false;
            }
        }
        return true; //Shouldn't get here...
    }

@Thuvalpakshi: I'm against any core modifications as this would break a plugin when you upgrade the Elgg core.

I will look into the problem shrotly and post an updated version of friend request which will work without any core modifiations

@Jerome Bakker

We are waiting for your upgraded version... Also i had a doubt is there any specific reason to disable Friends of link in your plugin?

Since every user you are a friend with is also a 'friend of' this would create two identical lists. This seamed overkill so i removed it

Great! Works on 1.7.1

Great plugin Thanks alot!!

Just tried it on 1.7.4 and added Fix River Privacy for 1.7.x

Now it runs as close to a FB site as It can be :) Thanks Jerome!

Not working for me, on 1.7 getting a blank page when I press the [1] and the icon isn't showing the topbar.

It's linking to http://newsocial.social-me.net/elgg/pg/friend_request

Fix for the mutual friendship upon registration with invitation:

1.) Open start.php

2.) Go to line 39. Locate this line:

if (($object instanceof ElggRelationship) && ($event == 'create') && ($object_type == 'friend') ) {

3.) Replace whole line with:

if (($object instanceof ElggRelationship) && ($event == 'create') && ($object_type == 'friend') && (get_input("action") != 'register') ) {

Issue should be fixed. What this does is that it lets the normal friend process flow when you are inside the register action, so the system itself takes care of mutual friendship.

thank you for the fix AV-2
