I try to administrate my site like that:
- All users can generall see each other in the Member view, but not their Profil.
- All users only can see created comments from their friends.
- A user can see the profil from their friend
The same for Photos and Forum and so on.
How can I realize this?

User access only to friends | Forum

Hi,
as far as I can see, it is not possible to achieve this level of privacy. You may try the privacy plugin that allows to tune some settings. But it is impossible to keep people (even if they are not registered) from getting access to all the photos on your site. The problem is that the photo plugin stores all images in the same folder incrementing the number. With this knowledge everybody can fetch all the photos stored on your site. Have a look:
yoursite.com/ow_userfiles/plugins/photo/photo_1.jpg
and maybe (depends on the number of photos on your site)
yoursite.com/ow_userfiles/plugins/photo/photo_81.jpg
Someone over here is addressing the same problem:
Adding more privacy to the plugin photo
To fix this problem, the filehandling of the photo plugin has to be rewritten, which is far beyond my programming skills. I am currently working out a quick fix, that prevents the whole world from viewing the photos only giving access to registered users. If you are interested in my solution, drop me a note.
best regards,
Oliver
