How to Add an Invite Friends Box to Your Fan Page [ FBML Tutorial ]

The best feature that Facebook has that any business can take advantage of, is the ability to allow your visors, customers, fan to share their interest in your company/brand/product with their friends. This ability to virally share can be leveraged to encourage your “fans” to “share” your fan page with others through the Facebook “multi-select” box. This can be implemented entirely within static FBML with just a few short lines of code.  The multi-select box will show the current users friend list, allowing them to select who they want to share the fan-page with when they click send. We recommend placing this box on a contest, call to action or “share” tab.

  5. Try to use this code :

    <fb:request-form
    method="post"
    type="YOUR FAN PAGE NAME"
    invite="true"
    content="Check out YOUR FAN PAGE NAME on Facebook!<fb:req-choice url='YOUR FAN NAME URL' ' label='GO' /> ">
    <fb:multi-friend-selector actiontext="Tell your friends about us" rows="3"
    max=45
    showborder="true"
    cols="3"/>
    </fb:request-form>

    :)

  10. This code works but it doesn't invite them to the fan page. It invites them to the application which then takes them to the fan page. Is there code in which people that are invited can automatically join once invited?

    Hi - any progress with this at all? When it comes up as the application, I've found people are unlikely to accept it.

  17. @HTH {Admin}This totally worked for me and if anybody has trouble using the code to remember to fix the code where the images are. all that's missing is ":r" ":r" ":m" and ":r" from the code. Posted this because I saw where users were copying and pasting code and not filling in the missing pieces. Excellent post and helped me alot. Again this is reply to HTH {Admin}'s post above. (Don't want to confuse anybody.) Thanks again HTH {Admin}.
