Color space in LR

I have tried to find this answer on this forum and on the internet. No matter what I export to Facebook, the color on my photos still never seems to be as good/vivid as what's on LR. I understand I should use Prophoto RGB under external auditing at the top where it says it will process in PS. Then I go to export in ProPhoto RGB as the same. Can anyone point me in the right direction for proper settings. See attachment. Thx

I meant external editing, not auditing!

And it will never be as vivid in FB as it is in Lightroom. Facebook takes uploaded images and processes them to display ideally in their web space.
Lightroom's focus is really on printing your images to media, where your vivid colors will translate.

You need to change to SRGB when you export as jpeg
