There is no current way to do this. The Facebook Stream API is being investigated currently which would allow this behavior. We'll definitely notify anyone with JFBConnect whenever features such as this are added (either by us or by a 3rd party developer).

The other questions about importing profile data are answered in your other post.

thanks for quick reply on both of my posts. sorry for bothering you but i want to confirm last time again, when i connect with facebook from joomla it redirect me back to joomla registration page with welcome msg and display a message Thanks for signing in using Facebook. Do you already have an account on this site, or would you like to create one? then there are 2 options for me, (1) If you already have an account, just log in here, and we'll link you're Facebook account to it. (2) Fill in the following fields to have an account created for you. We'll automatically import your avatar and profile from Facebook for you. if i choose 2nd option then it import avatar and profile and shows it also in jomsocial, as the msg shows its nice and working fine. but if i choose 1st option then it does not import avatar and profile in jomsocial.

my question is should this possible if i choose 1st option then it auto update the existing user profile and import the avatar also and shows it in jomsocial.

pls guide me, i am cofused, ithink i havd left any setting so it happens

No, the scenerio you describe is currently not possible. We've investigated it (quickly) in the past, but wanted to make the registration/connection process as smooth as possible. If we were to import data when you 'connect' your FB and Joomla account, it would erase all information a user already entered. Depending on your site, and your users, this may be alright. In most cases, we assumed it wouldn't be alright.

Sorry if this wasn't the expected behavior.

I was thinking, maybe sourcecoast may be interested in picking this up?

This is a great suggestion. They do have some features we're looking to add shortly, and will likely be contacting the dev soon about collaboration with them. Thanks for the tip!

What you are trying to do with updating a user's Facebook newsfeed with activity on the joomla website is outlined in this post here:

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="www.cmsmarket.com/forum/index.php?f=38&t...rb_v=viewtopic#p1901">www.cmsmarket.com/forum/index.ph ... opic#p1901

I got this to work on my site(<!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="www.TasteRater.com">www.TasteRater.com) which is a restaurant review site. When a user posts a new review on TasteRater.com, an item appears in their Facebook newsfeed with a summary of the review. I followed the code in the example and it worked fine, except that I had a button submit event trigger the execution of the javascript code rather than the onload event that is used in the example. There's also an explanation of the FB.Connect.streamPublish() function on the Facebook developer site that details the parameters that the function takes.
