Social Button location problems with JFBConnect

I am using Joomla 3.2.2 with the latest versions of all Stackideas products in the Joomlart Purity III template and have installed/integrated JFBConnect with all social button api working.

Question 1

If I create a menu item using the EasySocial login option, the JFBConnect Social buttons appear below the left hand login area (see loginmenulayout.png).

However if I use the default Unity view in my Social menu for peope to login/register, the social buttons appear at the bottom of the page, after the stream feed (see unityloginlocation.png).

How do I move the location of the buttons in Unity view to just below the left hand login area (as they appear in the login menu view?

Question 2

I intend to use the EasySocial login layout on relevant main site pages but would also like to have a pop up menu layout with social buttons, similar to the pop up used on the Sourcecoast website (see scloginpopup2.png) when a visitor/member clicks on a Sign In/Register Menu item.

I would like the Sign In/Register Menu item to change to 'Account' when a member is signed in, with a drop down showing the social buttons as well as any sub menus that would only appear when a member is logged in (see screencast video of how it looks on the Sourcecoast site):

After Login Menu Item View = http://www.screencast.com/t/oQQluVwt

The Sourcecoast version is based on their SCLogin module which is currently not integrated with EasySocial but they can supply the code to be used with a suitable ES module or Menu option. The EasySocial 'Login Layout' Menu option and Login Modules are a match in content and probably the best to be used.

I raised the question in the Sourcecoast forum here and they asked me to check here first to find out the best way to proceed.

It doesn't have to be exactly like the Sourcecoast version (though that would be nice), just a pop up with the social buttons and a menu item that changes from Login/Register to Account.

Advice on best way to proceed appreciated.
