I created a new app using the template after your message.
The template app as is doesn’t have any actions for the ‘Friends’ relation, which may be the bug.
But I get the general concept now -
- Friends is a M:M relationship within Users
- when a user initiates a new conversation with a new user in the ‘Start Conversation’ Screen, along with the set of actions present in the template, both the initiating user & the newly selected user should be updated by adding each other to their ‘Friends’ column (these actions are currently missing from template)
- then apply the filters as you mentioned.
I think that should work. Let me know if I’m wrong.
