=Thank you=
Not a bug report (though mine's been [[#Random_Quitting.3F|disappearing]] too occasionally), but I want to thank you for this fantastic app. Now I can be sure to be distracted by Facebook at any time of day, without even opening my browser! Facebook really will cost me my degree!
 
Feel free to remove this; I just wanted to say thanks! [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Smiler_jerg smiler] 08:16, 11 May 2007 (BST)
:Thanks for the kind words. I really wish the crashes would stop, but I will integrate infinite sessions into the next release so that at least it won't be necessary to log into the app each time you start it up. [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 03:36, 11 May 2007 (EDT)

== Problem Future Features == Not sure if this is feasible, but it would be fantastic if you could do things through the program, e.g. poke specified people. Or if that wasn't possible, it should be fairly easy to link to the relevant page - the /poke.php? bit makes that easy, right? Just a thought. --[[User:82.43.144.131|82.43.144.131]] 18:48, 12 February 2007 (EST):This is definitely doable. I'm thinking of using keyboard modifiers for each action – for example, pressing option-enter instead of enter to send a message, ctrl-enter to poke, etc. What do you think? [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 20:47, 12 February 2007 (EST) :This is similar to the question above I think, but would it be possible to make the keyboard shortcuts usable without having to click on the menu icon ie. being able to open the quicklaunch panel (which i think is great) --[[User:70.158.150.128|70.158.150.128]] 15:24, 13 February 2007 (EST)::I really want this as well, so I will try to get it into the next release. It is definitely doable. [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 23:08, 12 February 2007 (EST):::You know what would also be super great, the ability to have the cursor automatically appear inside the QuickLaunch Panel when it is launched, and when you complete a search that the panel would disappear. Then my life would be complete. --[[User:Loudestnoise|Loudestnoise]] 16:51, 15 February 2007 (EST) Also, possibly a Quicksilver plugin? that would be awesome. --[[User:82.43.144.131|82.43.144.131]] 04:45, 13 February 2007 (EST) I'd love to see the ability for the app to update our status with ZIP archive? what we are currently listening to in iTunes.

I can't open the archive—StuffIt Expander 10 stalls approximately 95% through and doesn't start againIt would be cool if you could update your own status using this program.:<s>This would indeed be very cool, and StuffIt Expander 11 returns an error.

[[Userhttp:129//developers.137facebook.158com/tos.156|129php Terms of Service].137You should e-mail them at developers-help@facebook.158com to let them know that you want such a feature so that they are aware of the interest.156[[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 16:0657, 29 January 21 February 2007 (EST)</s>:This is now possible with extended API functions and I will look into implementing it for the next release.[[User:Lensovet|lensove†]] 19:32, 18 April 2008 (EDT)
:Never mind== QuickLaunch Cursor == When using the QuickLaunch feature it would be amazing if when you either click on the menu item, it seems I got or use the keyboard shortcut that the cursor appears within the text box. Reducing the use of the mouse or trackpad is always a bad download from nice thing. Additionally the link ability to launch QuickLaunch without having to click on the wikiFMenu icon would be amazing. If I could set a global OS X shortcut to do this or something. My life would be complete. Or perhaps some kind of quicksilver intergration with the QuickLaunch feature. It worked Oh the next time I tried itpossibilities. --[[User:129.137.158.156Loudestnoise|129.137.158.156Loudestnoise]] 1617:1814, 29 January 2 April 2007 (ESTEDT)::HmHey there, thatthe text box should now gain focus as soon as the QuickLaunch panel gets focus as of the latest version (2.5). I's weird, but I strongly discourage anyone from using Stuffit m still looking at all. Mac OS X's builtimplementing a system-in BOMArchiveHelper.app does the job much better. Happy wide shortcut for getting Quicklaunch to hear that you were able to resolve the problemappear, however.Hopefully in the next version :) [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 2101:0449, 29 January 5 July 2007 (ESTEDT)
== Friends opting out of Terms of Service and Update frequency Status Updates with Profile Pictures? ==
I have three questions. FirstSo, obviously, exactly what effect does it have when a friend unchecks Growl shows the Terms of Service box? Will FMenu not even be able to tell me when they poke or message me? Second, is there any way I can tell which friends have opted out of this? My third question is how frequent is "too frequent" for app icon in the update frequency? notification. How frequently can I have Would it update without hitting the request limit? Thanks!:Here we go!:#If the friend unchecks this box, they are completely invisible be possible to the program. That means change that anything about ''them'' is inaccessible, like their profile and their status. However, when they poke ''you'', this is still accessible, because it is ''your'' information that's retrieved to find out icon (in the number of current pokes. So anything they do Growl notification) to you is available, because your info is retrieved, but anything they do to their profiles is not.:#Yes, there is. click on the arrow at the right Facebook profile picture of the text field in person the Quicklaunch panel. That lists all the friends that are available notification is referring to you through the app <s>(in a random order, unfortunately)</s>, which are alphabetized by first name as of version 1.5.:#This is essentially a guess-and-check process. As of version 1.4, it appears that 7 seconds is in fact the most frequent update interval. I personally had it running with 6 seconds, but that would randomly give me incorrect notifications.:Hope that clears things up a bit!&nbsp;[[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 14:40, 3 February 2007 (EST)?
== FMenu and Growl notifications ==This wouldn't apply in all situations, but it would work amazingly well for status updates. (Can you tell I'm a Twitteriffic user?)
Great appAlso, but a couple personally, I don't care much for the "now" that is inserted in the status update messages. I think it throws off the flow of suggestionssome updates, since people don't expect it to be there.
1. It would be nice if you could click on the Growl notifications and be taken to the relevant pageBut seriously, this is an amazingly great app, e.g. if my friend updates a status and I click, it goes to her page or if someone posts on 's head-and-shoulders above the other amateur-ish work that's being done with the wall, it takes me thereFacebook API. Thanks.

Perhaps by colour or counter?204]] 22:48, 13 May 2007 (EDT):#Thanksfor the encouragement! The first one is definitely something I will 've just checked in a change that allows you to choose the phrase inserted into status update messages [http://fmenu.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fmenu/GNotifier.mm?r1=47&r2=46&pathrev=47 to be looking into, hopefully soonanything you want].:#As for the second oneyour other suggestion, it's definitely doable, but I think I'll hold off that for a bit. Currently I'm not exactly sure what working on crash-proofing the app (and preventing memory leaks), ignoring bad results coming from the server, and supporting infinite sessions so you meanhave to log in once. What do you mean by "whether people have posted"? Posted what? Wall posts? Please clarify..forever.thanks I'm also adding upcoming events and groups to Quicklaunch. Look for a new release this week!:Thanks again! .

== Future Features Delayed sleep == Hi -- I posted this over on the Facebook FMenu Users page, sorry for the reposting, but it's unclear where bug reports should go...
Not sure if this When I have FMenu running, there is feasible, but it would be fantastic if you could do things through a 27-28 second delay between initiating sleep and when the program, esystem actually starts sleeping.g. poke specified people. Or if that wasn't possibleThe screen goes blank, it should be fairly easy to link to but the relevant page - mouse cursor remains on the /pokescreen.php? bit makes that easy, right? Just a thoughtAfter the delay it starts sleeping normally. --[[User:82.43.144.131|82.43.144.131]] 18:48Without FMenu running, 12 February 2007 (EST):This sleep is definitely doableimmediate. I'm thinking of using keyboard modifiers for each action – for example, pressing option-enter instead of enter to send a message, ctrl-enter to poke, etc. What do you think?

== Duplicate notifications ==As of 10th June 2010, roughly, launching FMenu 3.1 via login items or through normal launch causes the application to hang.The icon is grey and the QuickLaunch bar appears.Sometimes this flashes constantly and then dies after 5 minutes or so.Activity monitor on Intel says nothing is wrong, but G5 says that application is not responding.I have tried deleting the pref and the application and reinstalling, but nothing improves.This also has an issue on my G5 Mac.
I keep getting Was checking little snitch activity, and FMenu is trying to communicate with the api.facebook.com, but then after some minutes the et services stops the same notifications over and overconnection. I have moved my interval up to 30 seconds thinking it could have been cause by too frequent of an interval but I am continuing to see duplicate messages. It's a series of 5 or 6 messages, same messages each timeFacebook Notification installed aswell and that is working fine.
I have the exact same problem and it is the same two updates from the same exact person. - david c.
:If the update you're getting is "XXX has updated his profile", that means that they are actually updating their profile that frequently. If it's something else, let me know. Thanks. [[User:Lensovet|lensovet]] 00:48, 13 February 2007 (EST)
The one that keeps repeating for me is "XXXX wrote a new note" and "XXXX has updated her profile" It is always NOTE! A system restart made the same person and I've looked at their profile login window appear and it doesn't look like it's changing to me. --[[User:70.158.150.128|70.158.150all works now.128]] 15:23, 13 February 2007 (EST)
