Hi Guys,
Not sure if you know about this or are interested but i was messing about with a couple of responsive Wordpress sites and Facebook this morning.
I have tried to do this before but with no success. Now responsive design make it easy!
It's basically the whole WP site withing a facebook fan page tab IFRAME . . .
1: My office - Tailored Prints | Facebook
2: My office - Mint Leeds | Facebook
They are not quite finished i need to remove the scrolls which is done via the javascript SDK: facebook - Really stuggling with Removing Vertical Scroll bar from custom fan page tab - Stack Overflow
If you want to do this you need a responsive wordpress site and 5 minutes!
Set your tab up as normal:
Page Tab Tutorial - Facebook Developers
Instead of having the site in your root directory, just use the following code in your index.htm/.php file:
or similar, A PHP redirect may work too i guess. The important part there is the 'meta refresh' tag. It just sends the visitor to the wordpress site, via the iframe of course. This results in a fully functional wordpress site in your fan page and of course it's the same site so no need to update 2 sites etc.
Just thought i would share!
Must be worth a bit more money per job, right!?
Simples.
Any questions give me a shout.
