    I’m using this great little plugin and wanted to know if it’s possible to add a set of radio buttons underneath the message field?

    My use case is this… I want users to be able to select how they know someone (similar to linkedin) for example:

    I know this person from: College, University, Previous job, we’re friends, etc

    This means that the person receiving the request can see at a glance how someone knows them.

    Is it simple to add this kind of functionality?

    Thanks

    Thanks so much Ravi! This works perfectly.

    One other quick question…

    In the friend request received by the user, is it possible to assign a class to the message and radio button answer so these can be styled differently using css?

    Hi Steven,

    Thank You for your acknowledgement. Yes it can be easily. Please modify the following code of file name “bp-extended-friendship-request.php” on line no. 336
    for message content replace this line

    

$message = $_POST['friendship_request_message'];

    with

    

 $message = '<div class="class-for-message-content">'. $_POST['friendship_request_message'] .'</div>';

    and for selected radio button

    

$message = $message.__(' "Know you from - ', 'bp-ext-friends-request' ).$info[$additional_info].'"';

    replace with

    

$info = '<div class="class-for-selected-radio">'.__(' Know you from - ', 'bp-ext-friends-request' ).$info[$additional_info].'</div>';

$message = $message.$info;

    Thank You
    Ravi
