Creating a Facebook Fan Page Controlled by Joomla

Posted in: Joomla, Social Media | 4 Comments » Posted: Aug, 14, 2011

Last month we received a bit of a response back from our template that we released for creating a custom Facebook landing page for fan page controlled by Joomla. The template itself is fairly simple and is basically optimised to look and feel right on a 520 px wide canvas that Facebook allow you to work with.

You can download and find out more about the template from our previous post on the fUser Template.

The biggest bit of feedback was, ahem, then lack of setup tutorial. So that is what this is. The rest of this post will take you through a step by step guide to help you setup and customised the fUser template for your website.

All coming from the same location over the course of a few days and then repeated attempts a few months later.

Powering Facebook Fan Pages with Joomla

Posted in: Joomla, Social Media | 12 Comments » Posted: Jun, 20, 2011

When fan pages were first introduced to Facebook I thought the custom landing pages were a brilliant idea. It was an easy way to get the most important and current users to new fans to hopefully entice them to become new fans that you can engage on a regular basis.

Even though it seems so good I never actually had a chance to really play around with the Facebook Markup Language (FBML) and make good use out of it.

Recently though I had to dive into it as I was working on a social media campaign that really needed to engage the end users.
