Bug Description

If you're running a facebook page (for a business, as an artist, writer, or whatever) you can post updates either to the page or the your personal profile. Unfortunately Gwibber doesn't allow to select where to post and it only posts to the personal profile.

It would be nice if gwibber properly supported Facebook pages. At least we should be able to select where to post when the account is configured in Gwibber.

I would very much like to have Gwibber set up on my work PC to post to my business page.

I too would like to see this functionality implemented:

- Configure Gwibber to post as a page by default (as opposed to your personal profile)
- Configure Gwibber to notify page events (posts, messages, subscriptions, etc) as opposed to my full personal stream.

That way, Gwibber would be very useful to manage FB accounts in a professional context.

Hum, "incomplete" means it will expire if you forget about it. Please let is as "new" until you're ready to accept it as confirmed (BTW I don't see what harm it would do to mark is as confirmed now, it's a missing feature for sure, but maybe one that you're not interested to fix so you can always wontfix it later).

Lets leave this as new and leave it as a wishlist. It would be nice to do, but I am not sure how much work it would be to implement it.
