How To Add Friends

Greetings everyone! How are you?!

I know I’m not the only one who still needs to figure out how to add friends on here.

When I click someone’s username, a message box pops up to “Send Message” or “Ignore”.
At the top of that message box is their clickable username. Once clicked, it may show where that user is located, how many friends they have, last log in date. It also has a little add friend icon to the lower right of the box. Nothing happens when that icon is clicked.

Who has solved this puzzle of how to add friends?!
Please comment here!

Thank you!

P.S. Add me as a friend!

    You should get a friend request window after you hit the add friend button where you can type a message (if you want) and then click "Add As Friend" - then the request is sent. What browser are you using? Are you at a computer or on Mobile?

    I describe it as "Click the blue name". "Click the blue name again". "Click the green button".

    When I press the add friends icon mine does not work either. Before I had no problem with it. Past month it’s been a problem.

    I’ve been having the same problem for over a week now on the mobile app. I’ve experienced tons of glitches on the app. Not sure if it matters but I’m an iPhone user and problems seem to be more common with them. I also am not able to upload any photos unless it’s to the community threads or to change my profile pic. Also, messaging is a nightmare.
