Put all friends related stuff into a plugin #7874
Comments
I'm afraid it would be extremely difficult to move everything into a plugin. But we could start by moving all the user facing features. This was actually done once (by my ex-workmate), but reverted shortly after. I haven't yet searched for the reason. |
What would be the difficult part? |
One issue is that should all plugins always check |
This issue has a good summary: #3445 |
That is why i suggested #7873 |
@jdalsem is this something you still want to get to? I'm not sure I see the planning/persuading/testing/etc. happening this month. |
Still need some feedback on the above comment and ticket before i can proceed with this |
Closing this as #7873 did not get anybody enthousiastic |
Discussed in multiple tickets, i suggest we make some effort to move all friends related stuff (UI, access, related views, actions) all into a separate plugin.
Elgg 2.0 is a nice moment to do this. It could make the core more lightweight and allows Elgg to be better useful in communities where the friends concept is not needed (or even a burden).
