I have all the required components for Friendslist. I just installed it, but no navigation links pop up. I have no idea where to access friends list. Is friendslist supposed to automatically create navigation links for you? If so, what could be the problem? Thanks.

Not sure what you mean by "navigation links" You should be seeing "add as friend" link when you view another user's profile and there're couple of blocks that will be added to the blocks list that shows your friends, friends you may know etc. if you enable/assign them to some region.

Hi irakli, thanks for your response. I was able to successfully add a mutual friend relationship. 2 problems I have now are: The friendslist blocks do not appear on my front page (even though the block setting says to list on every page) and some other ones, but DOES display on others (will display on "what we do," a book page, but not on the contact page." The other problem is that when an email is sent about a friend request etc and it asks to click on the link to go there, there is no page found. For instance: drupal-6.12/user/1 is not found.

Thanks again.

1. The only thing I can think of is - maybe your homepage template does not have or does not properly display the region that the block is assigned to? If a block displays on a book page, it should display on any other page too.

2. Not sure why link would not work. Can you provide more detail about the exact setup? E.g. full URL from the E-mail and how your drupal is set up? It seems like your drupal is set up in a subfolder?

Yes my drupal is setup in a subfolder currently, that is, www.domain.com/drupal-6.12/connections/manage/twoway.. would that be the problem?

As far as my template, I'm not sure, other modules display on the frontpage, just not this one.

Again, thanks for your help.

When you install Drupal in subfolder you need to modify .htaccess accordingly. Check the part where it says:

# Modify the RewriteBase if you are using Drupal in a subdirectory or in a
# VirtualDocumentRoot and the rewrite rules are not working properly.
# For example if your site is at http://example.com/drupal uncomment and
# modify the following line:
# RewriteBase /drupal

You may also need to explicitly define $base_url in settings.php

Have you done those?

Hi,

Please note that the blocks are fixed in the latest snapshots. If you still have a problem with the blocks, please open a new issue detailing exactly how to reproduce the problem.
For the subdirectory, yes it looks ike your Drupal installation is in a subfolder. If you do that, you will need to configure your emails to reflect the change in URL. Now, FriendList doesn't send emails, but uses "Rules" instead. Please navgate the Rules admin pages to change the email templates, it should be pretty straightforward.

Marking this as fixed, because I am 99.5% sure that this was the issue.

Thanks,

Merc.
