BuddyPress Limit Friendship - WordPress Plugin

BuddyPress Limit Friendship plugin allows site owners to limit the number of friends a user can have on their network. It does so based on the 2 criteria.

 

Plugin Features

• Number of Existing Friends
• Number of Existing Friends + Number of Pending Friendship Request Sent & Received.

When you select the criteria as No. of existing Friends, The plugin only checks for existing friends count (for both the users) and will limit the user to be added as friend or to add a new friend if they have.

When you select the criteria as No. Of existing Friends + Friendship Requests, the plugin will check for both the users that they don't have crossed the limit (The sum of Friendship Requests sent, which is pending; The friendship requests received  which is not approved and the total no. of exiting friends is less than the allowed limit for both the users).

The best use case will be to use this plugin in a membership based site and ask users to upgrade account for more friends or to use it as a tool for spam control (Do not allow too many friends quickly).
