My profile has almost 15,000 friends on it. I want to subscribe to maybe 10 of them so I can keep track of my closest friends, but the way MySpace is laid out, there is no search function, and I have some 400 pages of friends to sift through. Impossible.

Is there a URL code or something that I can use to subscribe to individual friends on my list by Friend ID? I doubt anyone has bothered to find out, but I'm not nearly as sharp at code as some of you and it's endlessly frustrating to me Sad

Re: Friend subscriptions help plz?

You could always start a separate page for the people you are actually friends with. But Hot2nas alpha idea works great too.

Re: Friend subscriptions help plz?

uh deleting friends isn't an options, I'm running a business.

What is the alpha function, exactly?

Re: Friend subscriptions help plz?

when you are on myspace, click the HOME view, then

View:  All | Online | New | Birthdays

then click All

then  the alpha  comes  up: 

#ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

 

Tuna...the other white meat!

What I see is this:

http://friends.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewfriends&friendID=MYID&MyToken=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

 

No Alpha.  And even if it did, how could I use it?

Maybe this code from the page will help - doesn't help ME but who knows.

 

<td class="friends_ItemTemplate">

    
<div class="picBorder subscribed">
<span>DISPLAYNAME</span>
<br />
<a href='http://www.myspace.com/MYSPACEURL#FRIENDID'>
<img src='http://a697.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/21/WHATEVER.jpg' alt='DISPLAYNAME class='ProfImg'/>
</a>
<div><input type="checkbox" name="UserIds" class="checkbox"
onclick="ClearSelectAlls(this)" onchange="ignoreUnload = false" onkeypress="ignoreUnload = false"value="FRIENDID" checked />
<span>Subscribe</span></div>
</div>

</td>

 anything in caps is mine.

Re: Friend subscriptions help plz?

*sigh*  No, there is no search function when you have over 2000 friends.   I can't just look, or I wouldn't be asking.  Sad

 The ID doesn't seem to change, cuz it's done through a different kind of interface.

Re: Friend subscriptions help plz?

if you know their name, can you utilize the alpha function:

#ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

It may seem like a dumb solution, but maybe you can delete friends? It would solve some of your problems.Undecided

Re: Friend subscriptions help plz?

Yes, there is. First, log on

Then click on "Edit Subscriptions"

I'd select all, and unsubscribe from all friends.

I just looked, and you can search and find certain people.

It may take a few minutes to go through all the pages, but if you don't want to see all of the needless updates, I think it's worth it.Cool

Re: Friend subscriptions help plz?

I haven't played with it much, but if you want to give it a try for yourself, pay attention to the URL when you do one the normal way, copy it and paste it somewhere to save, and see if changing the friend ID works
