"Friends only" Level access

[mmontesp]

Hi!

I have made a little hack in order to have a "friends only" level acces without making friends collections. It avoid data redundancy of a collection "All my friends" on data base.

The changes:

File /engine/lib/access.php Line 165:

Original:

if (empty($sql))
    $sql = " ({$table_prefix}access_id in {$access} or ({$table_prefix}access_id = 0 and {$table_prefix}owner_guid = $owner))";

Modified:

global $CONFIG;
if (empty($sql))
    $sql = " ({$table_prefix}access_id in {$access} or {$table_prefix}owner_guid = $owner or ({$table_prefix}access_id = -1 and {$table_prefix}owner_guid in (select guid_one from {$CONFIG->dbprefix}entity_relationships where guid_two = $owner and relationship = 'friend')))";

File /engine/lib/access.php Line 200:

Original:

$tmp_access_array = array(0 => elgg_echo("PRIVATE"), 1 => elgg_echo ("LOGGED_IN"), 2 => elgg_echo("PUBLIC"));

Modified:

$tmp_access_array = array(0 => elgg_echo("PRIVATE"), 1 => elgg_echo ("LOGGED_IN"), 2 => elgg_echo("PUBLIC"), -1 => elgg_echo("FRIENDS"));

File /engine/lib/access.php Line 439:

Added:

define('ACCESS_FRIENDS',-1);

The modified file is attached

Regards!
