I know there isn't a way to set a daily, weekly or monthly limit on friend requests yet, however, when someone sends a friend request that is clicked as "declined" can they send the request again?

For example, if I send a friend request to you and you decline it will I be able to send it again the next day? We want to limit businesses harassing people.
Hello Michel,

if I send a friend request to you and you decline it will I be able to send it again the next day?

-- Yes, you will be able to send request again.

Is there any way to eliminate that as an option? We are attempting to limit businesses from harassing users by sending multiple friend requests. As it stands right now, we are unable to limit how many friend requests a business can send daily, weekly or monthly and they can continue to simply resend the invite.

Is there a workaround you can suggest?

Hey Michel,

Unfortunately that isn't possible right now as the limit is not done per request but rather per connection.

Can the limit be based on an interval rather than a total? Or is there a way to stop people from sending another request if it was declined by that person? We really want to ensure businesses are not harassing other users!

How do I set it so that Business user profile cannot friend College user profile but they CAN friend people within their own user profile type. Is this possible?

If not, is there a way that I can limit how businesses can search for students in a way that doesn't allow them to find students user profiles?

Hey Michel,

Hm, that is currently not possible in EasySocial as we do not have any ACL for this currently.

Thanks! I'll add it as a feature request. Thank you, Mark. For the time being we will just limit the amount of friends they can have.

We could really use some way of limiting friend requests too. Some of our users send out hundreds or even thousands of friend requests, and there's no way to stop them except to keep sending them emails asking them not to.

It causes email delivery issues (including for activation and password reset emails), and it's been a problem for years. Is there any way this can be looked at?

Hello Bethany,

There is Friends Limit ACL that you can use to limit the friend requests. You can find it in Backend>EasySocial>Users>Profile Type> ACL tab: https://take.ms/zJU3q
