Friends of Friends

I've gone about creating a SN site using 5.x. Obviously one of the features is a profile. There are a plethora of modules out there that will show me my buddy list or my calendar or my whatever. However I have found very few modules that will generate a list of friends of friends or a module that will generate a calendar based on the information supplied by the currently viewed profile rather than the profile of the person signed in.

So first off: what is the best way (using buddylist) to create a block showing the friends of a friend?

And second are there any out of the box modules that provide other functionality for friends of friends?

Thanks!

Great question

I'd like to see what people suggest here.

Buddylist does not support

Buddylist does not support this. Buddylist2 does, and I've written custom code for User Relationships that makes it do so as well. I'll be adding the UR code as a module within the next few days, but until then you can find the code here. There's also code on that page (one comment up) to show "friends in common."

For the calendar, I suggest you use the Calendar module with Date.
