How to Add an iframe Page Tab
Custom Landing Pages is ready for the major updates to Facebook Pages and want to share with you how to add an iframe page tab. These new Facebook updates are to help Page admins manage communications, express their brands, and increase engagement. As part of these changes, Facebook is also updating the model for building apps on Pages. Using iframes in Page Tabs.
Many useful applications have been built for Facebook Pages like Band Page for artists to share their music with fans and Shop Now to help Pages sell merchandise on Facebook. As of today, we can build your Page Tab apps using iframes rather than FBML. This means you can now build apps that run across Facebook (including Pages and Canvas applications) using the same simple, standards-based web programming model (HTML, JavaScript, and CSS). In addition, you can easily integrate social plugins and the Graph API within your tab.
How to Add an iframe Page Tab:
Enable iframes by editing the Facebook Integration settings on the Developer App:
Specify a Tab Name and a Tab URL that is loaded when the user selects your Tab on a given Facebook Page. Finally, to add the app to a Page, an admin of the Facebook Page must navigate to your app's Profile Page and select "Add to my Page." You can see step by step instructions in the Facebook user guide.
Updated signed_request:
When a user lands on the Facebook Page, she will see your Page Tab added in the left-hand menu. When a user selects your app in the left-hand menu, the app will receive the signed_request parameter with one additional parameter, page, a JSON array which contains the 'id' of the Facebook Page your Tab is hosted within, a boolean ('liked') indicating whether or not a user has liked the Page, and a boolean ('admin') indicating whether or not the user is an 'admin' of the Page along with the user info array. If a user has authorized your application, the signed request will also contain an access token and the user id for the current viewing user so you can personalize your application for them.
In addition, your application will also receive a string parameter called app_data as part of signed_request if an app_data parameter was set in the original query string in the URL your tab is loaded on. For the Shop Now link above, that could look like this: "http://www.facebook.com/MollySimsOfficial?v=app_135607783795&app_data=any_string_here". You can use that to customize the content you render if you control the generation of the link.
Policy Revisions:
Facebook has also revised it's Platform and Page policies to ensure that apps on Page Tabs maintain a high quality user experience and do not share information between Pages.
FBML Roadmap:
With Facebook's recent launch of Requests and the support for iframe on Pages Tabs, Facebook is now ready to move forward with their previously announced plans to deprecate FBML and FBJS as a primary technology for building apps on Facebook. On March 11, 2011, you will no longer be able to create new FBML apps and Pages will no longer be able to add the Static FBML app. While all existing apps on Pages using FBML or the Static FBML app will continue to work, Facebook strongly recommend that these apps transition to iframes as soon as possible. Lastly, Facebook wants to be clear that the deprecation of FBML does not impact XFBML, such as the tags that support social plugins.
Custom Landing Pages is excited to see the new types of pages we build using iframes in Page Tabs. CLP is also launching a DIY iframe application for all of our savvy friends that want hands on control. We feel that the ever growing Facebook environment is a great place to market your brand or business for the near future and for many years to come.
