Comment on How to create a Facebook Tab Page with Fan-Gating by Gloria Wadzinski

Hi David, You do need some technical knowledge to troubleshoot problems when doing the manual method. Facebook has recently added more changes including requiring a secure server certificate for these Fan Gate pages. Facebook members that have selected certain security options will not be able to see your page if it is not available through https. Perhaps you should try one of the resources I mentioned earlier in the article.

Since your business is social media, I have to question whether you commented on my blog just to get a link back. And I am curious as to why someone in social media (based on the sharing of ideas) would make a home page video private?

I tried this and just get a blank space for both. Because It is blank I do not know what the issue is.

Hi Sony, For some reason, it is not getting access to information about the person visiting the page so it defaults to the “not liked” view. Have you tried the help pages at developers.facebook.com?

Hello Joeri, Not sure why you are getting the immediate redirect. On subsequent visits, after someone likes your page, they will automatically see your wall when they visit your page. No way around that for now. One solution is to make a tall profile photo on the page. I’ve seen them as tall as 600 pixels. At the bottom of the profile photo you could have an arrow pointing down with instructions to click on the menu for that Tab Page.

Hello! Working aswell, but one problem!
When I ‘like’ the landing (no fan) tab, its redirecting to my wall and not to the default landing tab.

Do you have a solution?

ps: this one working aswell (but same redirect problem)

FB_APP_ID,
‘secret’ => FB_SECRET_KEY
));

// Get Signed Request
$data = $facebook->getSignedRequest();
$page_liked = $data['page']['liked'];

Sometimes it’s the simplest thing that goes wrong. Did you upload your web page to the server? (Sorry, I originally forgot this step under 2a of the instructions) Did you upload all your images? Did you copy the App ID and the Secret correctly and leave the single quote marks in the code? Also, Facebook has been having some problems lately and you will get an “Unable to load page” error. If you try a couple of hours later, it might work.

If my suggestions aren’t working, you might find help at https://developers.facebook.com/ .
