Topic-icon Invite Issue - No way to skip directly to email invite

Active Subscriptions:

None
It appears that there is no way to skip inviting Facebook friends and going directly to doing invites accessing your email contacts. Am I missing something or is this a "feature request?" Yes, I can select one Facebook friend and then proceed to the email invites, but why do I have to do that? What happens once I've invited all the Facebook friends I care to invite or if I just don't want to invite friends using Facebook?

That's a good question. Yes, you're correct, there's no way to currently skip inviting FB friends. We're working on the Invite module currently to update it for our next major release of JFBConnect. If it's possible to add more parameters into it to allow skipping things like you ask, we'll do what we can. We can only expose features that Facebook allows us to though (through their API), so I can't guarantee this is possible. Additionally, this would be a 'fixed' setting for all users, not just specific users.

This is because Facebook doesn't check your friend list to ensure that all friends have already been sent invites, and will just show them all.

Hope this helps!
