Description
"friend" features currently rely on buddylist. I want to make them all work with user relationships as well.

#1
Couldn't this easily be added now by editing the buddylist view and adding a snippet based on the buddylist sction in
panels-content_userinfo.inc
// Add / remove from buddylistif (module_exists('buddylist')) {
if (user_access('maintain buddy list') && @in_array($accountid, array_keys(buddylist_get_buddies($user->uid)))) {
// Remove buddy
...
and perhaps something in
view-buddylist_of_uid.inc ??
TIA,

To do this, I need to:
1) Installing the module and figuring it all out because I've never looked at it
2) Find the equavalent functions for adding/removing buddies as well as checking if the user is a buddy and any restrictions on adding buddies. Also, I believe user relationship adds in types of buddies that I'd need to take into consideration.
3) Write a view to replace the buddies by uid view since that is hardcoded to use buddylist and usernode.
So not terribly complex but not simple, either. I'll get to it. I just have a lot on my plate so one thing at a time. :)

Look at the comment#7 on this node. Perhaps it has something you need?

Unfortunately, what I need is time. I know what I want to do with this but don't have time to do it.

Hi, any news here? Subscribing.
Thanks!

No news. Please don't change the version. New features can't go into an existing alpha.

UR looks dead and 5.x isn't getting new features anyway.

Now that we have new maintainer for UR , would you please consider this?
#12
The second part still applies.

I'm confused as to what the problem with using user relationships inside advanced profile is.
Perhaps, I'm mistaken on the goal. I simply, added the Relationship blocks to a panel, with the relationship actions, in another panel. When I visit a user profile, it shows their friends, with the links to add or remove, plus tells me the relationship to the person. And When I view my own profile, it works properly.
What other functionality is needed?

This is about adding support directly into APK. Now that APK is going to be worked on again, this might happen but I don't know, yet, so I'm just leaving the status as is for now.
