Make adding friends less complicated

Currently, it is a very convoluted process to add friends when you see someone in the forums you'd like to add.
You need to either go to their forum profile by tapping/clicking on their user name and then delete 'community.' from the web address to get to their actual profile, either use the 'find members' function to get to their profile.
It would be a lot more practical to be able to tap/click on someone's user name and then immediately see a button to add them as a friend and/or a link to their actual (not forum) profile.
There were already many new members struggling to add friends on the old forums, and I think even more people are struggling now with the new format.

Totally agreed. Unfortunately since our forums are technically a separate entity to the rest of MFP there is going to be some amount of clunkiness, however I can confirm that we have a fix coming out in the near future that is going to address this and make it way easier to add friends.0
