very important questions to me:
- can I track in backend the amount of facebook users and users who linked his jomsocial account to facebook (can I identify the 2 cases too)?

- there is some kind of API to check if an user links his profile to facebook in frontend (in order to make a little profile page override with a link to the facebook profile)?
I mean something like that www.diigo.com/item/image/51ynl/4mqw

- when an user uses an Invitex referred link to register, the user looks invited even if he login with facebook in registration page?

-I use Socialize jomsocial template, there is some kind of JFC Connect integration for the Socialize toolbar on top?

There's an easy to read table in the back-end that shows exactly how many users have linked their account to Facebook or any of the other social networks we support. I'm not sure what the '2 cases' are, so I can't answer that.

There are multiple ways that you can allow users to authenticate with a social network to connect it to their existing account. Our SCLogin module supports that option natively (just look at the My Account menu above) and there's ways you can add the social links to any other pages, like profiles.

Can you explain what you mean by this?

You can add our SCLogin module to any standard module position. You can also use the {JFBCLogin} tag anywhere on your site to add our login buttons. There are various points that JomSocial will also automatically add our login buttons, but I don't know if there's specific integration in the Socialize template. You should ask them if they support it and to add that support if they don't.

Thanks,
Alex

The 2 cases are:
1. an user join my site with login with facebook button
2. a jomsocial user links his jomsocial account to his facebook account.

I would avoid another login module, I already have enough buttons and forms in my site (also as you said jomsocial take your login buttons)
Is that a problem using JFBConnect?
But regarding this specific question, I'm not sure you totally get it (obiouvsly it's my fault :) ).
I'm asking: regarding the facebook users on my site, can I show a button who links to their facebook profile like the screenshot? (in an easy way, without hardcoded db queries in template)

Can you explain what you mean by this?

I will, I hope we will control this aspect too.

do you mean I can use {JFBCLogin} in any other module, or module override, or component view override?
If so, what kind of sourcery is that? :D

Very thanks for your time.
I'm doing all this questions because I don't have so much time to adapt a component to my needs, so I need to know if already have what I need.

Yes, both cases are supported in various ways.

You don't need to use our SCLogin module. You can add the "Connect" buttons to any pages you want using our Easy-Tag system {JFBCLogin} and the networks a user hasn't associated with will show. You will need to modify your JomSocial template files or any other place you want to add the connect buttons though, they won't all be added automatically.

It's our easy way to let you customize your site very easily without having to use modules. There's tags for just about all of our features. For more info, see:
