I have seen a few facebook accounts that somehow have added a tab to them then used standard FBML to add a tab with come HTML or what have you, but I can't seen to be able to add anything to my main account page.

I have friends pages that I can add the FBML app to but I want to add a tab to the homepage (my account) to then have it open if someone isn't a friend?

Can anyone help me with this? Im a little confused over it.

here's a sample of what I want to do with my facebook account? Click Here. Notice how it goes to the welcome tab.

    That is fanpage, not account and you can add that using app called Static FBML.
    I don't think it's possible to add it to account.

      How does it have a account name then? Facebook.com/calvinpatricia

      As well as this facebook account

      facebook.com/facebookcanada

      I don't think you can have this happen with fan pages?

      Maybe I'm wrong...

    Hi..

    Ye..these two are definitely fanpages. FBML static won't work for personal profile page. I have tried it.


    Have a great weekend.

    Best Regards,

    OK, thanks guys. I guess I was hoping for profile pages. What's more important fanpage friends of profile page friends?

    how does one make a fanpage get that type of domain name then? I can do it in my main account but can't seem to find the way to make it with fanpages? Also how do I get it to default to a tab? Some searches in google say that facebook stopped this unless you have 10,000 fans? The 1 one link above does but the other one has under 200 fans!

    You only have the option to rename your fan page when you reach a certain limit. I think it's only about 1,000 fans or something now.

    Im trying to add HMTL to FBML to create a quick landing page and the page isn't showing up in the FBML tab.

    Can someone help my to understand why? Is there something that needs to be done to make HTML show up. Im using Frontpage to create the page using some tables to keep everything together.

    They've probably used FBML on the Fan page with that Tab selected as true. Not possible with People profiles.

    I have 10 fanpages not profiles accounts. 1 profile with 10 fanpages, just having difficulty with adding code to them. Seem facebook may be limiting FBML and wanting an app to be created to be able to add code. They are really messing with things alot.

    Facebook. Com slash username and you can get a vanity url.
