As many of you will know from this blog and recent announcements, Facebook is replacing FBML with iFrames as its default mode for tab applications. While the change will enable users to create more consistency between their existing HTML web site designs and their Facebook fan pages, it does create a few challenges for brands switching over from FBML-based apps.
To ensure that our customers are able to meet this challenge and enjoy the benefits of the move to iFrames, Involver has taken the opportunity to improve the look and functionality of our applications created in SML™. We’ve also updated the application settings pages to make them easier to use.
Our roll out of upgrades will take place over the next couple of weeks, so don’t expect everything to change at once. Among the highlights:
• Improved look and feel for all Involver apps. Easier access to a greater number of apps.
• A self-serve version of our Promotion Gallery app will be available at the Professional level. This app allows users to create a gallery of fan pages ranked by Likes to cross promote pages.
• A new app called Scribd, which combines the functionality of Slides and PDFs.
For further information about iFrames and the changes on Facebook, which go into effect for all Facebook pages this Thursday, March 10, please refer to Facebook Drops FBML in Favor of iFrames – Advantages & Challenges and other recent blog posts.
