Hi !
I am really intersted in your subject, and to me disabling “Friends” in the Component Setup is not enough.
I am setting up an alumni website for my school, and we would like directly everybody to benefit from the “Friends” capabilities without the operation of asking everybody to be “Friends”…with all the time that takes, and with experience, we see lot of people don’t care and never answer to that request.
I tried disabling “Friends” but then the simplest function of “fullfilling a name in the private message thing” doesn’t work anymore…between other things…
So, is it possible, is there any plugin for giving everybody all the accesses for talking, writing mass messaging, create events, etc…automatically, without asking anyone to be “Friend” ?
