Hi I am using the relationship module and would like to add a block the suggest other members as friends based on there profile info such as high school, age, college and so on. Kind of like facebook. If there is a module or any other way please suggest.

Thanks

I'm not aware of any modules that do this currently. You will need to develop a ranking algorithm to determine what people to suggest as friends. Once you have the algorithm, you can either turn that into a SQL query and code a View to pull the top X suggestions (to minimize the amount of time coding the presentation), or write a module from scratch that uses your query and presents the information as a block.

correct me but, the suggest a friend module does not do what younggun asks, rigth? I'm working on a similar module, by now i've got the algoritm working, getting data from the user profiles nodes and comparing between them.

i don't want to duplicate efforts, thats why i'm asking about similar projects, or if suggest a friend does this, automatically suggest friends based on profile. Thanks.
