Manage "Friends" in Private Messages

I cannot see add/delete button for My Friends. Anyone know where it has gone?

It's hidden, but if you hover the mouse over the right spot on the web page, it shows up. I recall it being on the right side somewhere. Anyway, it was discussed in a thread generated not long after the community portal change went live. Yours truly struggled like you are now.

Thanks @will13am & @NDesai. Eventually found it in two places: NDesai's location and beside the name if you click Reply to a message.

Wonder why these elements have been hidden? Don't seem to be elements that are open to much abuse.

It's likely a bug in the system rather than a design feature. As you have seen the rate at which issues like this are worked down, it will likely be around for a while.

@Luddite, I would have answered earlier but you just never know. If you are on the friend list and they want to get rid of you then you are sabotaging yourself

Very true, but then I'm afraid I pay no attention to how many "friends" I have on social media. As is many things. "you pay your money, and take your chances". 👺
