Friends on the new familysearch homepage
I have been trying a living person as a friend on the new home page but I can't find her. I see others but not her, she has also tried looking me up but unable to.
how do I go find her or go about it?

@SETH EDUKU, the only Living profiles you can see are the ones you enter yourself. So neither you nor your friend can see each other's profile.

@SETH EDUKU You will need to know/find your friend's username on FamilySearch, not her PID or actual name.

So I missed understood Seth's issue, I never saw that "Friend" tab before. Some kind of Social Media feature. Is it really the username you need or is it the Contact name one uses on FS? For instance, my Contact name is Chas Howell but that is not my username. On the Advanced Search it asks for the "Name or Contact ID."

I only know about it because a friend wanted to connect with me a few days ago. That was the first time I saw it. My connection with him is to his username, which is not a name. You can also use the link feature and share the link with someone to connect. See the "Share Link" from my screenshot.

Seth If you don't get this resolved you might consider posting this question to the "New Person Page" Group, since it is clearly a New Person Page feature. You will need to join the Group to post there.
