My apologies if this is not the appropriate place to post this. I really love the Linked Accounts functionality JFBC introduced in their last release and think the following would be a great enhancement:

Allow individual users from this page to tick a box in an Import and Export column if they would like to import their latest post from that social network and/or export their latest post from a network using JFBC to the linked one.

Correct me if I am missing something but currently only FB status can be imported/exported upon login and that would apply to ALL users who have a linked account. I keep this turned off as some user might use this while others would be annoyed with it because they want to keep their activity separate.

First, I'm really happy to hear you like the new account linking / status page. It took a bit of work to get it out and we've been very happy with the response so far.

As for your recommendation, I think you're right that there's more control that can be added there. We also have another page which lets you set which Open Graph Actions are allowed for each user where they can disable actions they don't want posted on their behalf. I could see combining our account link page and then having extra options under each network for specific features for that network.

What you show above won't really work since the "Export account status" currently only works for pushing status from a few 3rd party extensions (JomSocial mainly) to Facebook. No other social networks are supported for that yet and not all users will have extensions that support it either.

So, it will take some thought, but I think we can start working toward having the Status / Linking page be much more of a 'Control Center' for various social network integration features for the user. We've added this to our issue tracker. I can't say when we'd have something implemented at this point, but I do like the ida.

Of course, if you have any other feedback on this or anything else about JFBConnect, we'd love to hear from you.

Thanks!
Alex
