Follow Users (released)

simonxeko

Hi,

I've built a functional extension prototype for the user following feature.

Basically this extension is composed with the code from fof/follow-tags and fof/ignored-users. This is my first time making Flarum extension and using the new Laravel API, so it could really need some improvement.

Currently the extension only works on new discussions (no notifications on replies yet).

composer require simonxeko/follow-users

How exactly does it work?

Is it normal of extension name "FoF Follow Tags"?

simonxeko Work?

simonxeko

Alshain The name should be Follow Users, and the description should be Follow users and be notified of new discussions and replies. Not sure if something went wrong, anyone with experiences can help would be greatly appreciated.

You can follow the user on the user profiles or user info in post view.

If I want to translate, the translation file name should be 【simonxeko-follow-users.yml】, right?

@Alshain I found the issue, Packagist required a "Release" on Github, try run composer update now and you should get the result.

@Littlegolden I suppose, here is an existing one. You might need to fork the translation or ask the maintainer of Simplified-Chinese pack to add the translation. Here's the version for Tranditional Chinese.

Yes it works now 🙂 Thank you.

Can you make a "followers" and "following" section under your username in Profile? Can we see how many people are following and how many are following?

tolgaaaltas 🙁 will be great if flarum add this to their check list.

https://extiverse.com/extension/ianm/follow-users this extension is great, if this one has the number of followers and following to be displayed on the user card, this extension is lit. what do you think?
