Editor's Note
- This extension requires registration to download.
Users of allArticleAnnounce also have the ability to specify exactly what categories they wish to have updates come from as well, meaning that only the updates which are needed are updated to the realms of Facebook and Twitter.
Version 2.1 ensures that a Twitter post does not exceed 140 characters. In the previous version (2.0) a Twitter post that exceeds 140 characters would cause the Twitter error 'Error code:403. Twitter status updated error.' to occur. This fix has also been included in the latest version (1.6.4) of allArticleAnnounce for Joomla! 1.5.
Version 2.0 is compliant with Joomla! 1.6 and Joomla! 1.7. It will not work on an earlier version of Joomla!.
Version 1.6.3 includes a Twitter API bugfix that was stopping the setup of Twitter on some server configurations.
Version 1.6.2 adds a timeout parameter for setting up Facebook and Twitter, so users can fine tune the extension for running on slower hosts.
Version 1.6.1 solves a minor bug with HTML character encoding for facebook.
Registration is free on Joomtraders, so please come and be active in our forums. We would love to hear your thoughts, experiences and suggestions on our work.

Excellent extension, a first install for all of my sites now, worth the fee! Customer service is outstanding! Had a small issue when went upgraded to 1.7.3. Gusto was all over fixing my issue and had a patch out in no time (2.1.1). Thank you Gusto and to the entire Joomtraders team. I've always said, what makes a good team a great team is superior customer service. Joomtraders is a great team!
This is easy to put together and work perfectly. Publish on your web site and Picture and text are send to Facebook/Twitter. Can be automatic on section/category, blog or manually update or not. And a big plus for the support. On one site I did have some issues, the Devs take their time to test my environment to find the problems.
Thanks — Going to be on all my sites blog section.

It was very easy to bring joomla articles to facebook and twitter automatically. I got a few questions and all are answered within hours! What an excellent service you did! Furthermore I got a special problem and the guys from joomtraders solved it for me and I have to say: "You did an awsome job"! It was kind a birthday present for me, in fact it wasn´t, but this solved all my problems. What can I say more: Just plug, play and have fun ;-) Excellent! I like you guys from aussie since I was there. I dont want to write too much but one thing at least: The correspondence and cooporation especially the way dealing with my problem approved it!! Very special! All positive facts from the other users has to be confiremd e.g. safe your time, easy configurabel and good documentation, good support if facebook release a security update and so on!Thanks a lot it is definetly worth the money!

I have tried many extensions in an attempt to get content to auto-publish to Facebook & Twitter. Had I been willing to buy this sooner, I could have saved myself many wasted hours.
Set up and working in less than 5 minutes, comprehensive, understandable documentation, I could not be more pleased.
I would recommend to anyone who needs auto-publish for only Facebook & Twitter.

I have recently used several of their extensions including this one and they are all excellent. Easy to install, configure, and use. I had an issue regarding a download and they responded quickly, solved my issue, and issues a refund for my errant duplicate purchase of the same item. Great job!
Even when Facebook changes her security settings, the developer - David - is extra reactive and gives full support. He delivers updates very fast to comply with new security rules.
It is really an "install and forget" component that allow - with short URL's - to post to Facebook pages from Joomla.
