    Nop, i still able to suggest my fans page to others. Maybe you have to look out for facebook admin to help you up or you did not follow the steps.

    No, it is not possible anymore.

    It was generating too much spam. Spammers are not welcomed anywhere

    This function is disabled to only the non-admin of the fan page. If you are the admin of the fan page you wanna send the invites, then you should have the option. However the only other way to get more fans on your like page is by some viral marketing postings :)

    Yes, Facebook changed this for Admin only. Only Admins can suggest to friends now.

    sorry guys to tell you the bad news but even the admin suggestions not going out any more, just test it with your friends account.
    It shows the suggestion was sent but it never arrives!

    Hope they will fix this error soon!

    Warm Regards

    I don't have multiple accounts. But today I got suggestion to this Like Facebookpage of my friend. I am confused if you really not getting.

    One thing may be there, Facebook doesn't show this suggestion all the time, sometime it shows random in manner.

    I don't have this problem or error either. Are you one of the admin? I just suggested a few of my pages to friends today with no issue.

    Just manually suggest it now... just post a custom made message with the URL (exact URL) to the Facebook fan page and tell people "LIKE this page" or something catchy in the title. Works everytime!

    Solution for what?

    You have said "invitation sent and recieved". Where is the problem?

    Your friends are not clicking "Like".

    There is no solution for it. It depends on them whether to like your page or not. :)

    I know that this is the basic issue. but my question is that someone's invitations is not going and my one is going but no respond so i don't find any difference in that. also facebook now change the notification of a invitations. and it's now less noticeable. also all the invite you got form you last login will show you together.

    so it's now not only hard almost impossible to increase the amount of like. facebook also disable the welcome page also few app that helps to grow the like.

    facebook change the suggestion to friends request option to prevent spam and now i think they stop the invitation option permanently and inviting people to start spam.

    Don't know what's coming next.
