Greetings,

I would like to ask you for a feature that would allow a user to update only particular information from the Facebook about a contact during synchronization. What do I mean: When I have a contact, synchronized with Facebook, I can choose to 1) update only empty fileds in memotoo ,2) update only empty fields in memotoo + update photo or 3) update all fields in memotoo. It would be great if I could choose what fields I want to update or, at least, if you could add some more options. For example, I have few friends (and I hope I am not alone

who change their names in Facebook profile sometimes. However, I do not want to change the name in my address book. On the other hand, they can change their address and, of course, I would like to know about their new home. Thus, maybe just few more options would be enough, i.e. updating all fields in memotoo (but not empty in the FB profile - in case a friend deletes e.g. a phone number from FB) from the Facebook profile except the name, or except the name and the phone numbers, or except the name, phone numbers and email addresses.

I hope the description of the problem is understandable and I did not overlook this feature in Memotoo (or some hook how to do it).

Thank you for you reply and opinion. However, I think this would be a great feature.

Martin

Off course that is already a nice feature, but what about empty fields? When you for example have entered a phone number in Memotoo for a friend, and this friend removes his/her phone number from Facebook, will the phone number in Memotoo automatically be removed as well during synchronization? This is a case it would be very nice to be able to choose whether the field is updated or not.

Ask my contacts to update their information
