Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted April 3, 200717 yr There is no way to "add friend" via the profile view, but it is everywhere else (ie topics, memberlist, etc). Why is this? :(
April 3, 200717 yr lol :lol:EDIT: ok digi you broke it and now i don't see it :angry:Another Edit: i think the member names of last visitors and comment makers should have a similar drop down box where you can do various things like you can in the topic view ones and other places.
April 3, 200717 yr I don't think it's worth adding the drop downs for those names - it would make things too complicated unnecessarily in my eyes. We are trying to keep a strong balance between feature-rich, and usability/cleanliness, and it's a hard balance to keep.
April 3, 200717 yr Yeah, I don't think that much is necessary. I think the only reason I missed the "add a friend" button was because I was expecting it to be in the drop-down for options on the profile page similar to how it is handled everywhere else. Still, doesn't excuse my blindness :P (Jaggi it is just below the user photo :P)
April 4, 200717 yr (Jaggi it is just below the user photo :P)yea... i knew that... i was just testing you... yea thats it :P.
April 7, 200717 yr You can't add yourself as a friend :PTheoretically no, but practically yes :POpen a fake user and add your fake user as your friend, then switch back to your real account and add your fake user as your friend :x
April 7, 200717 yr Theoretically no, but practically yes :POpen a fake user and add your fake user as your friend, then switch back to your real account and add your fake user as your friend :xOpen a fake user account and get banned. End of narcissistic freaky user. :lol:
April 7, 200717 yr You can't add yourself as a friend :PI've seen members with their own name under Friend's list... :blink:
April 8, 200717 yr Perhaps there is no checking for errors related to it and it can be "exploited" to happen. But the actual profile and topic views do not have the "add to friends" option.
April 8, 200717 yr I've seen members with their own name under Friend's list... :blink:It's like Digi said, it's not an intentional feature. The reason you probably saw that is because the member had himself in his PM contact list before the board was upgraded to the latest version. 2.2.x automatically moves the people from that list to your friends list.
April 9, 200717 yr the member had himself in his PM contact list before the board was upgraded to the latest versionYeah, I was going to say that too, but I wasn't sure if this was the case :P
