How do I channel my personal page?

Right now, the Channels features only support Facebook Groups and Pages, Twitter Streams and LinkedIn Company Profiles. We'll be adding more channel types, like personal Facebook Timelines, in future releases later this year.

I hope that helps answer your question, and sorry we don't have the specific feature you're looking for yet. Personal timeline posts are definitely coming though. Early this year, there was a huge demand for posting to Pages and Groups, so we prioritized that, and didn't realize how much users would want to post to personal timelines as well, since it wasn't requested at the time.

Thanks,
Alex

I definitely understand your interest in a personal profile Channel. Just a quick note though, Facebook recommends using Pages for broad audiences, like it sounds like you're looking for. Users can "Follow" personal profiles, but posts from Facebook Pages generally get a broader reach and there's additional analytics tools for seeing how your posts go.

So, if you plan to ever really, really grow, it's best to make the plunge with a Facebook Page sooner than later.

Finally, a quick question about what you're looking for.. are you trying to display your Profile feed on your site or do you want to use the Channel to push content from your site to your Timeline? Just curious as it helps drive our roadmap the more we hear from our users on exactly what they're looking for.

Thanks,
Alex

Christopher,
I can't argue with what you say at all. I really just spout the Facebook party line on what should be used. I haven't done any analytics on that or any sort of consulting for Facebook, or social network in general, promo. It's great to hear your feedback, honestly. It makes sense actually about personal people getting followed having more relevance to a user, and therefore showing up in their Timeline more.

Anyways, we'll definitely be looking more into the Facebook Personal Profile integration for showing in streams. It's definitely planned and, honestly, shouldn't be that difficult.

On a completely unrelated note, do you do much email marketing or notifications from your site? We have plans for an upcoming extension that should improve email within Joomla in multiple areas. If you do anything with email for site promotion or general user interaction/engagement and would like more info, I'd love to hear from you. Your feedback in the past on JFBConnect has been extremely helpful, so you were already on our contact list for later this year

Thanks,
Alex

Thanks for the feedback. For our email extension, it's not email blasts/newsletters that we're looking at.. more automated emails from the site notifying the user of new content (blog post, new messages, comments, blog posts, whatever is generated on your site). It's mainly an automated engagement method, similar to push notifications from Facebook, but from activity configured from your site.

We're shooting to have something available in October if all goes well. If interested in more info, let me know. If not, I completely understand if it's not up your alley
