Change username from personal profile to facebook page

Discussion in 'Facebook' started by Zapita, Mar 23, 2011.

    when i created my personal account i had chosen a username so the url would be facebook.com/thenameichose but now i created a facebook page and need that URL to redirect to the facebook page and not to my personal page, anyone knows how can i do it? because the help page is not that useful and there's no way to contact them with a direct question (or if anyone knows, that will help too)

    Thanks

    If you are asking to make the same URL for you facebook page as your personal account page, then it might not be possible. I guess you cannot put the same username to a profile page as well as a facebook page. So you will have to set a new username for your page. Let me know, if I got that right ...?

    I don't think you can do it either.. probably have to go with China girl and set a new username for your page.

    If you have already a username like facebook.com/myusername, then no one can create a username/page like facebook.com/myusername not even you. But still there is one option for you, you can delete the current username and make the page as you wish :D

    yes, you cannot have BOTH your profile and your fanpage with the exact same address... obviously ;)
