I have a facebook page for the app. if i open the page, it just show like button. i need "Go To App" button near by, which will redirect the user to the facebook app. Thanks.
Do not ever merge pages! I did it and I regret. You'll lose everything. You can simply just change page type to Brands & Products > App Page, and you can choose it in the app settings thereafter. That simple!

I have created a Facebook App that will be a page tab in an existing group. This app is live (visible to all users).
What I would like to know is, how can I edit the content of the actual app? At the moment when I click the "Web Preview" link, I get a page with the App layout and the screenshots as the contents, but I can't see anywhere to edit the actual content.
To edit your Facebook app, you need to go to
https://developers.facebook.com/apps and sign in, and then from there you click your app in the left hand corner and then on the right should be a button that says 'Edit App' and has a pencil icon. Click that and there you go, you can edit your Facebook app from there.
first what I have:
I have a Canvas app that could be added to a facebook page but should not be accessed directly.
I meen no user should be able to open the app direclty. Only through the "tab" on a page that added my app.
but when i search for the app and click on it, I am redirected to the app and not (like it was some time/months ago) to a page where i have the option "add to my page".
(I dont know exactly how to describe it better. I hope you understand what i meen. )
How can I get this "page" back where i was able to add the app to one of my other fan pages?
thanks in advance.
I want the "Go to app" button on my Facebook page like this:
Mine currently looks like this:
As mentioned in How to add Go to App button on my app page, I tried using the following URL to add the button to my Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/dialog/pagetab?app_id=APP_ID&redirect_uri=APP_URL
Instead, I got this error:
Where's my button?
THe 'Go To App' button is only on Pages which are linked directly with an app (i.e the page representing the app itself, not a page upon which the app is installed as a tab) - you can create such a page for your app in the app's advanced settings. Don't change the page category from 'App' or it'll remove the link
I made an application for using Facebook's likes/comments.
This is the app.
However, I made a separate fan page.
How do I link the two such that the App's Profile Page points to the one that I have made?
I can't afford to make a new page since I have already gathered 250+ likes, and it was hard.
Facebook changes their user interface once in a while, and it can be difficult how to add an app as a tab to a Facebook page.
Here is how you do it:
The app must be a tab app. When you create the app, you get a chance to specify a Page tab URL and a Secure Page Tab URL. If the app is set up as a "App on Facebook", it will not work. Make sure your app is set up as a "Page Tab"
After you create the Tab app, click on "View App Profile Page" in the left column.
Click "Add to My Page"
Select the page to which you want to add this tab and click the close button
There is a step by step tutorial on how to do this here:
http://how-to-create-facebook-app.koliber.com
You can link the app to the page by clicking the "link to my page" link at the lower left of the app screen. A box pops up that lists all the pages you are an administrator of. Just select the one you are targeting.
The app including its info content will then appear as an extra tab/menu item on your page. That way, the visitors of your page have direct access to your app.
I'm new to facebook app development and i cant seem to figure this out. I have a simple app i made (an iframe website) that i want to add to a tab on my facebook page. When i try to click on the + tab to add it to my page i only have a few options of youtube, events, fbml... When i do a search absolutely nothing comes up unless i search for those items i just mentioned before (youtube, events, fbml).
Type this into your browser's url bar with the appropiate ids. (I already assume you have configured the app settings for page tab urls,etc).
