How to set default page for Facebook fan page

    Once upon a time it seemed like setting the default page for a Facebook fan page worked, but now it doesn't. The setting is not on the wall, but a custom FBML page. But it ignores that setting and always shows the visitor the wall every time.

    Anyone know why or how to fix?

    Easy

    Go to Edit Page (Top Right)

    Choose Default Landing Tab as Wall or your Welcome Tab

    Done :)

    Thanks, but that's exactly what I'm saying doesn't work.
    1. Edit Page
    2. Choose default landing page from wall to my specific page
    3. NOT DONE

    Go to my fan page URL from any account either logged in or not logged in = shows the wall, not the landing page.

    It works now. It took a few weeks for the preference to get through the system, apparently.

    You may want to switch over to iframe based tab now. Since, facebook can stop the support for FBML based wall tabs soon. In case you need that, hit me with a PM or mail me at .

    Chances are that you have liked the page from the other accounts OR are the admin. Both kind of people (likers and admins) always get the wall, no exception.
