I've tried to keep the patch as small as possible, and to mimic existing coding style of the two plugins, so the changes I've introduced should be quite obvious. INSTALL: 1. Install Friends plugin version 1.1.7 2. Save attached patch into friends.patch file in your /wp-content/plugins directory. 3. Apply patch with cd /wp-content/plugins && patch -p0 < friends.patch. 4. Remove, now redundant, friends.patch file. <pre><code>diff -ur friends/friends.php friends/friends.php --- friends/friends.php 2011-10-27 01:32:48.000000000 -0700 +++ friends/friends.php 2012-01-30 05:30:09.000000000 -0800 @@ -144,13 +144,22 @@ function friends_plug_pages() { global $wpdb, $user_ID, $friends_enable_approval; + $count_output = ''; - add_menu_page( __('Friends', 'friends' ), __('Friends', 'friends' ), 'read', 'friends', 'friends_output' ); + if ( $friends_enable_approval ) { + $tmp_friend_requests_count = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM " . $wpdb->base_prefix .

Consider the following screenshots: <a href="http://premium.wpmudev.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/friends61.jpg" target="_blank">http://premium.wpmudev.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/friends61.jpg</a> <a href="http://premium.wpmudev.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/message61.jpg" target="_blank">http://premium.wpmudev.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/message61.jpg</a> Messaging plugin seem to update it's menu item using WP's update classes to notify user about new mail, while Friends simply lists current number of new requests. Considering how tightly integrated this two plugins are, wouldn't it be nicer if the Friends plugin updated menu item similarly to Messaging plugin? It would also prevent users from overlooking friends requests when email notification is disabled. sciamannikoo on "No add friend button" http://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/no-add-friend-button#post-170525 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 14:18:23 +0000 sciamannikoo 170525@http://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/ Ok sorry. Perhaps I'm too much new to BP. I don't have any Friends or Members directory plugins, as longs as you mean plugins located in the Plugin's page. If you're talking about features, of course, I've all these features, but they aren't plugins. My currently installed (and network wide) plugins are: - Askismet - bbPress - BuddyPress - buddyPress Group Calendar - CodeStyling Localization - Localize WordPress - Signup Code - Wordpress Chat - WPMU DEV Update Notification that's all.

This profile doesn't have to be viewable by everyone but the system should recommend people based on their profile. Is this possible? If so, I'd LOOOVE to have one. I can explain more later. Thanks!
