This powerful plugin puts the reins firmly in the hands of both administrators and individual users, allowing for precise control over who can send, receive, and establish friendships.

Comprehensive Friendship Restriction Options:

No more sifting through irrelevant or unwanted friend requests. BuddyPress Friendship Restrictions empowers you to define rules based on a variety of criteria, ensuring connections are meaningful and desired. Key restriction options include:

• Role-Based Restrictions: Easily configure which user roles can send or receive friendship requests. For example, you can restrict new members from sending requests until they’ve completed their profile, or prevent certain roles from connecting with others.
• Profile Field Restrictions: Set conditions based on specific BuddyPress profile fields. Only want users who have filled out their location or verified their email to send requests? This plugin makes it possible.

• User-Specific Blocking: Give users the power to individually block other members from sending them friendship requests, offering a direct layer of personal privacy.
