Friend request accept not working?

[tcpip]

Just got a friend request from an old-time friend. I can see his outstanding request in my profile area, and I select his request and click on the accept button. I see a rotating waitcursor for a second or three, but then the screen is back to exactly where it was, with the friend request still visible and unaccepted.

It seems the accept-friend-request operation is not working?

It's a little used feature of the forum. I would not be surprised if it was currently turned off, like the wiki.

Good. Tell Variac this.

Worked on or about 1 April 2020. I had a long-standing Friend Request which I had not noticed, and Approved it.

Send me a friends request and let's see if it works.

Accepted. It worked.

Thanks a lot. It worked now. I must have been making some silly mistake earlier. Sorry about raising the issue.

It works for me.
