    Hi your plugin profile visibility manager works great with followers but the main problem is that when users set their profile to followers only they didn’t get any request for followers. Which means anyone can follow them without their permission.

    Hi Ankit,
    Thank you for the topic.

    The follow is not offered by us and it depends on the follow plugin. I find it strange that anyone will need permission to follow.

    The premise of follow is based on one directional communication.
    Still, will suggest contacting follow plugin developers for support and see if they add it.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Ankit,
    Thank you for the reply.

    In that case I do not see much of an option.

    If you are referring to BuddyPress follow, we are forking it and will be releasing it with our upcoming theme(expect year end of early next year).

    Until then, I regret my inability to assist you with this.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    I am sorry, We do not have enough free time slots available for community support for 3rd party plugins.

    Please feel free to use our custom development services or sponsor the development and we will prioritize it.

    Thank you
    Brajesh
