Using Catalyst and WordPress for Facebook Pages – Bonus Guide
Update Mar 2012
The WPFacemakerPro guide detailed below has been updated a few times since it’s original release.
However, there have been a number of changes to Facebook in the last couple of months that mean some of the content relating to creating new Pages and Apps is now out of date and significant sections of the guide would need re-writing to provide the step-by-step detail the guide originally attempted to provide.
Whilst the guide remains useful and the principles it shows generally valid, the guide itself has been withdrawn for the time-being.
Existing Pages should continue to work (possibly requiring some changes to layout etc due to the new Timeline features introduced in Facebook), although other Facebook requirements and future changes may of course change that too.
I hope those of you who have previously downloaded this free guide have found it useful.
Thank you.
Earlier this year Facebook changed the method for creating Facebook Pages.
Instead of using the previous method of static FBML pages, iFrames can now be used to display content on Facebook Page tabs.
The iFrame method embeds content from a webpage which is hosted elsewhere into the Facebook Page.
That means you can now have the content from a WordPress site displayed within your Facebook page!
So, it’s now easy to design and create content for Facebook Pages using WordPress.
Even better is that the Catalyst Theme for WordPress lends itself to this really nicely, making it easy to create landing pages, content pages, even full blogs – all adjusted to suit the Facebook iFrame width etc….
Really easy!!
And I’ve made it even easier still with my 60+ page guide to using WordPress and Catalyst to provide Facebook Page content.
