Need help with Facebook Fan Page setup

My custom facebook fan page is acting weird. I set up a custom page and set it to be the default page. Why, when I go to the custom url, do I go to the wall instead of the default page? What's weird is, if I'm not signed on to facebook, I do go to the right page. It seems to happen only when I am logged on to fb. Anyone else having this issue?

    Everything shows up if you are the administrator. If you log out and log back in from another users site, you should see it formatted as you intended. Also, if you haven't formatted using iFrame, you'll want to do so immediately. There are several good tutorials available in the WSO section. Greg

      Ahh, from another users site. Cool. I tried from other computers in the house and have had the same problem. I guess it recognizes the IP address.
      I'll check it out. Many thanks.

      Thanks for your help. I did set the page as the default page...is that what you mean by "change its view"?

        Here is a quick video that shows you how to make a page the default landing page for non fans:

        Also as someone else has said you must be looking at the page as a non-admin to see the landing page. If you have a hidden reveal page then like the page to see that.

          Thank you for the link because it confirmed that I did it right...but wasn't sure.
          Someone off this forum told me that my problem is a known fb bug and they are working on it. Don't know if it has anything to do with their switch to iFrames, but maybe it does.
          Does this sound right to you? Have you experienced this problem with any of your sites?
