Description
Hi,
Greetings,
I have a problem while using Flag Friend. For instance, user A could view all his friends in "My Account" tab > "Friends" tab. However, user A could also access to user B' profile (because I have allowed them to access other user profiles) and click on user B's "friends" tab to view his friend list.
How could I make the tab invisible? I would like a particular user to view his own friend list but not seeing someone else's friend list.
Is that possible? Could you provide some guidelines for me?
Thank you.

Check out the access setting within Views.

Hi,
I have checked out the access setting. I have tried different settings over and over again but I still not manage to get the outcome that I want. There are lots of choice of settings for permission. Which one shall I pick?
Sorry to interrupt you again.
Your advice is much appreciated.
Thank you.

Yeah, Views access settings has a lack of features. I simply added some PHP-code to to the tempalte of the view, which outputs s.th. like "sorry, you are not allowed to see this". Maybe there is a module to use PHP for views access?

So as a feature, it would be good to have an Access plugin. This would be useful for a variety of other Views as well (say you only want Friends to be able to see a users content)
Luckily, Access plugins are trivial to write.

changing component category

I'm not likely to write this as writing Views code still makes me feel like a small child left out in the rain...
Please reopen if you plan to work on this.

Reopening as this is a total no brainer. And its so simple.
