Description
The Friends module takes you a step further towards Social Networking for your website. It allows your users to create and manage lists of friends just like Facebook. Aside from the typical friend request/confirm method, some alternate usages might be to follow other members, only allow “friends” to view your full profile, “bookmark” your favorite authors and subscribe to their weblog entries, etc.
Along with Facebook-esque friends functionality, Friends includes complete private messaging (which works off of native EE private messaging), status updates, comment walls, “hugging” (“poking”), website invites and referral tracking system, and virtual groups where users can create and join groups. In combination with the User module, the possibilities are endless.
We’ve also included a Friends Code Pack which includes sample template data. What this means for you is that with a couple clicks of your mouse, you can have a COMPLETE Friends “wonderland” happening on your site, just like ExpressionEngine installs sample templates that all work together with each other. You can view this in action right here!
Finally, a better way to make friends.
Try it today! 30 day money back guarantee!
If Friends does not meet your expectations, or is not right for you, just let us know and we’ll give you a full refund within 30 days of purchase.
