Core Features

  • Friendship Management: Users can send, accept, or reject friend requests directly from user profiles or the member directory.

  • Profile Integration: Once activated, it automatically adds a dedicated “Friends” tab to the user’s front-end profile.

  • Sub-Tab Organization: The Friends tab is divided into three sections for easy management:

    • Friends: A list of all current connections.

    • Pending: Incoming requests waiting for approval or rejection.

    • Sent: Outgoing requests that haven’t been accepted yet.

  • Action Buttons: Adds an “Add Friend” button to the Users Directory and individual profiles. This button dynamically updates to “Cancel Request,” “Accept Request,” or “Unfriend” (on hover) based on the relationship status.

Administrative Controls

  • Shortcodes & Blocks: You can display friend lists or status buttons using specific Gutenberg blocks or shortcodes provided by the add-on.

Comparison: Friends vs. Followers

It is important to distinguish this from the UsersWP Followers add-on:

  • Friends: A mutual (two-way) connection. User A requests, and User B must accept.

  • Followers: A one-way connection (like Twitter/Instagram). User A follows User B without needing approval (unless the account is private).
