Is there a way to control which Facebook Pages gets an update?

This is a major limitation for me and I'm not sure if the issue rest with Ping.fm or Facebook.

Facebook only allows us to have one account; anything else is a violation of Terms of Use. I can (and do) manage multiple pages but if I try to send an update via Ping.fm, the update goes to all pages. Since I have a work page, a political group page and a sport club page, it is absurd that the same update goes to all three!

It really seems that someone hasn't thought the Facebook Pages thing all the way out (e.g. a company has to delete and recreate the page -- and thus lose its fans -- if it changes its name).

Chip describes the issue well. This is a major roadblock in my social media workflow (which Ping.fm is an integral part of!).

It would be nice if we could define posting groups that not only allowed us to select the "Posting Method" (e.g. Micro-Blogging) and the "social networks" (e.g. "Facebook Pages") but let us select which Facebook Pages would be wonderful.

Is this not in the control of Ping.fm?

If facebook doesn't allow for this, then why does Ping even have the feature to set up 2 fanpages? Why would I ever want the same message to go to all of my fanpages?

When setting up Ping, you can select the exact FB pages you want updated... this is easy... try uninstalling completely and then restart the process

@Guy the question is more complex than your answer. People want to be able to post from different Ping accounts to different Fan Pages, at different times. Right now that is not possible. You are correct that you choose which pages you want to post to, but we do not want our messages cross-posted to all Fan Pages all the time. We are looking for a way to choose which Fan Page to post to, when actually making a post through Ping.

+1 Being able to create Ping groups that send to different Facebook pages would be a great help to us. That is really the only feature that we need here at our organization. We manage 3 facebook pages that sometimes need to recieve specialized messages, and would love the option to administer all via a single Ping profile.

Any chance of getting an ETA on that feature, since it is kind of critical for so many of us?

The New Ping Facebook Management system is way better and solves all these issues... you can set up multiple Ping Accounts with Multiple FB Pages and Accounts...

As usual you need to think it through a bit and work out exactly what works best...

Also recommend Hootsuite - it can only have one Ping Account attached to it, but it solves other issues...
