Profile Enhancements - Automatically Add Friend

Introduction
This modification acts somewhat like Myspace. When you register on Myspace, the creator of Myspace (Tom) is automatically added as a friend (mutually). This acts the same way on your forum by adding any number of users (user IDs required) to the new users friend list. This is completely mutual, but now has the option to be a non-mutual friendship.

This was coded by request in this thread.

Requirements

• vBulletin 3.7.x (This should work on ALL betas & RCs!)

Installation

1. Upload the attached product file by following this path:
   ACP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> [Add/Import Product]
2. Head over to the vBulletin options, open up the "User Registration Options", and set a list of users under the "Automatically Add Friends" option.
3. Enjoy!

This is what's supposed to happen. If you have email validation turned on it doesn't work correctly for now.

You have to add your user id to that option.

I tried this and it does not work with 3.7.0

Do you use email validation?

Caused by you requiring email activation.

Just saw the posts about email-registration. Any chance this will work with email-reg. turned on in the future?

You and everyone else... Maybe when I am not so sick I will finally get this finished.
