Good Day,
Is there any way one can have the Facebook Iframe tab as the default landing page on Facebook, after a user liked the page.
That means when ever a user who "liked" the page visit the facebook page again, he will see the tab first and not the wall as a default.
Go to your page, go to Edit Page, go to Manage Permissions, there you will see Default Landing Tab...
Then parse signed_request and redirect user if needed...
There is no way to set the default landing tab for users who already like your page - only for users who don't already like the page

I am having trouble setting up default landing tab for fans. Apparently the Landing Tab featured in Manage Permissions works only for Non-Fans. So when a fan returns to the page is currently being redirected to Wall rather than the Default Landing Tab. How do I make a fan redirect to a custom default landing tab apart from the Wall.
There is no option for this and this is standard behavior for a long time. You can only set a landing page for non-fans. You can log a feature request here.
The settings of facebook application give under:
App settings>> Wall Settings>> Default Landing Tab for Everyone Else >>
provide an option to set the default landing page as wall.
But changing this setting is not working at all ..
i have checked for user who has liked and user who has not liked my application.
Is this a FB Bug ?
Liking has nothing to do with it. That setting is for your app's Facebook page, not the app itself (i.e. canvas page). When a user comes to your app's page, that setting determine what "tab" is shown.
Is this possible?
When someone clicks a Facebook Like button, he/she shares the web page URL with friends on Facebook.
With the same click, the user also becomes a fan of the web site's Facebook fan page.
Thanks!
While adding a Like button on your website to like you "Facebook Page" is possible (and I guess you know that), you can't use the same button to like multiple entities (your current page and the Facebook Page).
What you can do is:
Have two Like buttons, one for the current page and one for the Facebook Page
Place the Like button of your Facebook Page in a "visible" location (e.g. on top of the sidebar)
Capture the like event of your current page (with edge.create)
Encourage the user to "Become a Fan on Facebook too" whenever they like your current page.
See this link on Facebook's developer site.
This will do all the points 1 and 3 you mentioned above. As far as point 2 goes, you will need to reference that on your facebook page.
since facebook changed the whole fbml, apps and fan page stuff I've got a bit confused.
I need to make a welcome page (tab) for users who has not liked the fan page and a start page for users who have liked the fan page.
What should I use; apps, fbml, iframe etc.? How/where should I start?
Just need someone to point me in the right direction :)
For now you can still use the FBML tab

Add it to your page, type in some code, make it a tab on your page and select it as the default landing page (in your page settings panel)
I am trying to add a new box on the main view of our Fan Page.
And populate it with HTML from our main webserver (django) when the user opens the fan-page.
Is there any way to do this ?
You should read up on creating facebook applications...
Once you have an application you can setup a page tab application and add that to your fan page.
Finally go to your fan page settings, and the "Manage Permissions" tab. There you can set your "Default landing tab". Be aware, as the administrator of the page the landing tab will not work for YOUR account - you'll have to log into a different facebook account to see this behaviour.
There's two way of reading what you want to do :
1/ You want a landing for non-fans
2/ You want a landing page for all your user
The first one is achievable by creating an application and fill the page tabs fields (PAge tab name, Page tab url, secure page tab url). Then going to the App Profile Page, add it to your page. Then on the admin panel of your page pick your app as default landing tab.
The second isn't achievable. One a user likes your page, its default page is your wall and you can't change it.
I'm not sure exactly what you wants to achieve, hope I helped.
