Friendship Network, connecting to your community! Feature

FriendshipNetwork

Here is a brief idea about the ))FriendsNetwork((

General Description
The Friendship Network is a system where we may ask our fellow TW users to be part of our direct contacts. Helping to create a connected community.

Key Function and sub-features
Allows members to request communication. If the request is answered then you will be added to the persons' Friends list.

  • A new menu "Community" is created, with the correct perms this allows you to see the member list.
  • A sub menu "Friendship Network" takes you to your friend list.
  • Posts by your friends will have a friend icon
  • At the users profile there is a “This user is your friend“ note.
  • What else does it do?

Bugs

Of course as could be expected the IE experience gave me some problems. This error was when I tried to connect to the "Community" link in the menu. This did work in Mozilla saying permissions denied, as I had not set the new perms up yet.
IE-5- ERROR
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
----------------------------
Only one top level element is allowed in an XML document. Error processing resource 'http://xxxxx.net/tiki/tiki-list_users.php'. Line 2, Position 2
<b>Notice</b>: Undefined variable: tiki_p_list_users in <b>/home/xxxxx/public_html/tikiwikiwise/tiki-list_users.php</b> on line <b>13</b><br />

Work Around
For months I had the same problem mention above, "The XML page cannot be displayed"....
I found a workaround here: http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?forumId=6&comments_parentId=5878(external link)
It said "Go to the General preferences and settings page and uncheck Use gzipped output you will correct the ..... problem." I did this and I no longer have that problem.
