With JFBConnect, a single Joomla user can be mapped to different social users, regardless of whether the email addresses match. Say you initially log in with your FB user and a Joomla user is created. Then when logged in with that FB user, you can use the SCLogin module with the "Show Connect Account Button(s)" option (or the JFBConnect Accounts menu item) to then connect the existing user to other social credentials.Fortunately we use different email addresses for our twitter account and our Facebook account however I could see that not being the case quite often and then it becomes a bit of a kludge having separate users on the site just for the channels.
Before you begin looking at Actions, I would suggest reading Facebook's changelog on the deprecation of custom actions with future versions of the Graph API. If you're going to be using the standard Facebook actions like news.reads, you can proceed. However, if you're going to be doing custom actions:Were now trying to get our head around actions.
"Deprecation of Custom Open Graph Actions - v2.8 no longer allows apps to create new Open Graph action types or object types or publish open graph stories that use custom action or object types. Approximately 90 days after the v2.8 release, no versions of the API will allow the creation of new Open Graph action or object types. Additionally, all App Collections will be removed from people's profiles at that time. Approximately 1 year after the v2.8 release, no version of the API will allow publishing stories that use custom action or object types. Please see our deprecation guide for more information."
