   Hi Julia 

   We’re about to release a new set of tutorials in line with the recent updates on Facebook. You may not have heard but Facebook has shut down the FBML app effective March 11 which was the easiest way to create custom tabs. 

   Any pages built using the FBML app will continue to work just fine. If you have this app already installed you can simply use it to add a new tab however no new pages can be built using the FBML app after March 11 and must be created using the iframe app. 

   Here are a couple of options that will allow you to either create a new fan page or update your current fan page with the new iframes applications: 

   1. Wildfire Offers Free Facebook IFrames Application Wildfire is offering a free application for the next 3 months that will allow you to create a “fan gate” when customers click your “like” button. The application provider will host the content for you even after the trial free period, but has not announced how much it will cost thereafter.
   2. Static HTML: iframe tabs This is a totally free app available on facebook (not created by facebook, however) that makes facebook iframes in one easy step.

   I will let you know as soon as the new FB tutorials are up but if you need help in the meantime our team will be able to help you to set-up the additional tab.

   Thanks Adam 

   I have asked Mel for some help and I am going to get on FB and investigate the Static HTML app and see what I can work out until the tutorials are ready. 

   Thanks 
   Julia
