I did this before, and thought it would be good to do it again.
I have now removed this plugin from Code Canyon, and will be sellign it on my own website for £25. However, you can get it for FREE with this link.
why am I doing this? I still need 56 points to officially make it to lifetime membership status. If you want to give me any points for this, then please do. This isn't a condition of downloading though - think of it as a gift to the community.
Here is the official write-up:
Facebook Tabs for WordPress is a plugin for WordPress which allows you to easily place your entire WordPress website inside a Facebook page.
It seems that almost everybody has a Facebook account and, with almost all the major companies joining in, it is fast becoming accepted as the way to go. This is integration at its best.
Facebook Tabs for WordPress enables you to look like the big boys by giving you the ability to easily integrate your full WordPress site within Facebook. It has many possibilities, even giving you the opportunity to host your BuddyPress social network within Facebook.
This is a very simple system to use but, to be absolutely sure that you are able to use it with no problems, you will find a full user guide included. This user guide covers everything you need to know, including:
• How to set up a Facebook page
• How to set up a Facebook app
• How to connect your app to one or more pages
• Where to get a free SSL certificate
• How to set up an app with no SSL certificate required
The written user guide is now available in three different versions, which are:
•PDF
•ePub (the most popular e-book format)
•Mobi (for the Kindle)
If you want to see exactly how to do everything, you can just watch our high quality video version of the user guide, which is included within the download.
The video is in full HD, 1920x1080 pixels, and looks good on any sized monitor or TV screen.
Currently downloading. Thanks. It would be wise to state the file size though (132 MB). Some of us would have wanted to kept the downloading for later. Oh am just nit picking. Thank you.

There shouldn't be a problem with the file, but just to be sure, I've removed the video and re-uploaded it. This means that it isn't such a big file, just in case you still ahve a problem.

Hello @joe again congratulations on your lifetime membership! I hope to someday join you in that group.
I just downloaded your plugin and was going to watch the video instructions but may have missed or overlooked something. Do the video Tutorials need to be downloaded separately? Look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi Dean,
There was a possible problem with the zip file which included the video file, so instead of finding a problem after downloading a 136mb file, I removed the video and will be placing it online to be viewed.
I'll give you the URL once I have that on there :o)
I'm trying to use this plugin with ultimate facebook from wpmudev, and it doesn't work.
I want to let user connec with ther facebook account, how to do it ?

To get it working alongside Ultimate Facebook, you can either download it again (I've made the changes to the file) or do the following:
On line 19 of index.php, you will see this line:
require 'facebook.php';
If you edit that that, you should be ok.
Change it to:
require_once 'facebook.php';
The plugin will only place your website within Facebook, and doesn't currently work with MultiPress for your users, though it will work fine with the main site.
Same problem after doing the changes, when i go to this page /wp-content/plugins/facebook-tabs-for-wordpress/
i got this error
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class FacebookApiException in /homez.93/messmile/www/00g1me/wp-content/plugins/facebook-tabs-for-wordpress/facebook.php on line 91

Hello @joe was just wondering before I start tinkering with the Facebook stuff as to what the difference is between the Ultimate FB Plugin and yours. Or do they both work together? Also would like to see a facebook page in action that already has these plugins running. any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks!
PS. is it better to set up a separate business FB account so you can keep your personal /family and business information separate?
If you are using the Ultimate Facebook plugin, you should remove line 19 of index.php on this plugin.
I would suggest using your general FB account to set up a business page, but you can then use that business page name to write messages within Facebook. The best part about doing this, is that the link on your name will lead back to your business page.

I think you would be interested to know that I created a theme specially made for facebook and called it "Facepress" however, it was before facebook changed it's width, and it was just a theme. I dropped the project long ago, as I was planning on selling it on themeforest, but I simply lost interest.

I was really looking forward to the video. Can you not upload it to YouTube?
I hate to even ask, I feel like I'm being greedy with such a gift..

I will be adding the video to Youtube. I was going to be placing it on the site and running it from my own server, but Youtube makes more sense. Don't worry about asking, it makes perfect sense :o)
The reason for the site not showing the full height is that that demo site does have a lot of info on that first page, so it just needs to have the height option changed in the code. It is set by default to 4000px height, but that can be easily changed.
Here is another example of how it can look that I did for one of the actresses we work with, though there are a few things I need to edit on there, such as the images showing up when clicked on in the gallery, but I'll be sorting that tomorrow:

Yes, it is great.. I really like it and it's something I have been thinking about for a while.. I just didn't know this plugin was out there.. I am very happy you shared it..
Combining the "Facepress" of Jason's would be great as well.. I have looked at that theme and I liked it..
I am sorry Jason, you decided to abandon it.
I would have loved to pick it up and work with it.
But, if Joe does something with it, that would be great..

Hello @joe had a couple of questions while setting up the plugin. I got to the part where I was setting up the Page Tab information and it is requiring me to have an ssl certificate. I went to the link you said http://www.startssl.com got a weird front page that listed a bunch of stuff not related to SSL, I refreshed the page and then some SSL items showed up. However I only saw 30 day free trials. I didn't see any flat out free ones.
Also not sure if I can set up more than one page on facebook like this or not.
Once you have done that, when you go to your page, there will be a box where you will need to place the exact URL you used for the 'Page Tab URL'.
For that to show up, you will need to have Facebook your Facebook security settings set to secure (not exactly sure what it says in there, as I don't have that and just use the boss's (aka she who must be obeyed) account to do it. If the box shows up, then you have this setting, most people do.
You only need to set the app up one time in Facebook, then once you use the URL in the user guide to link it to a page, you can select multiple pages if you want to. You can also add further pages at a later date.
I hope that helps, but if not, just let me know :o)

Joe I'm so lost right now with my facebook, partially due that I had already had a page set up before. I was going to look for you on FB but not sure what to search for (after all Joe is such an uncommon name Lol)
I don't recall where but i saw on a sample page you or someone here suggested where when you clicked the link you had to like the page before you could see any content. That was pretty cool.
have to get some food but will be back in 45 min and try to do some of the screen captures.

What is the URL of your page on Facebook?
I've made a few changes for you in your app admin. You had too many of the sections filled in, but that is a common error as Facebook doesn't always keep things obvious.

Did you add the Facebook App ID & Facebook Secret to the settings in your WordPress admin? It looks like this may be the problem. See the image below to see where they are in your Facebook app admin.
When you view the site yourself and are logged into WordPress, you will see it exactly as you would normally see it, but any other user will not be able to do this. It works exactly the same as when you view the site outside of Facebook.
That red glow logo is a bit weird, as you do not have that one in the admin. This could be due to Facebook taking time to change it, which sometimes happens.

@joe yes I did add those items to the corect fields within the plugin. Actually those are the only 2 things to add there. I'll have to work on the design a bit more tomorrow (actually lter today as its already after 5am and my wife is mad I'm still up )
Will try to adjust the theme as I'm still working on my prices and need to get marketing for my other services completed. I originally had everything under one site as Kaus Photography, Video and DJ Productions but wasn't getting as much interest. Anyway I gotta get some zzzz's
If the codes weren't correct in your plgin it probably wouldn't even pull up the template st all would it? Also not sure if because of the way the website is setup if that may be the problem as I have a public html folder there as well in the path.
anyway my brain is fried so I'll check bask this afternoon
thanks

I've been looking at this, and am sure that the error isn't on the Facebook side.
I have removed the public_html part from the URL, as that wouldn't be part of the URL itself. I've also added this to one of my own pages to test it and, strangely, the logo appears as it should do.
It is now just showing the like to enter image, even when I have liked it, so am sure that it is something on the WordPress side.
If you are happy to provide me with an admin account, I can take a look at it for you. Just send it to me as a message on Facebook or an email to admin@ the URL on my avatar.

hmm, I'm not so sure about this whole location thing now. I live in Fareham and was doign so happily until that last message.
It seems that I now live in Portsmouth, which is not a good thing, especially having been born in Southampton. Don't ask, it's long-running feud that I don't care about as I escaped Southampton to live on a farm, with a screaming skull (another long story).

Blimey, I just read that again and see that my writers brain just set in.
In explanation, I used to live on one of the famous farms here in the UK with a screaming skull. Interesting as a kid to have a skull at the bottom of the stairs that can't be moved, unless you want to risk the curse.

First off thanks for the amazing gift.
I just took a look at the demo site on facebook you linked here, i dont know if there has been some change on FB since this originally posted but now the bottom of the pages in facebook seem to be cutoff.
Is the commercial version any different to the one that is here? if so i will chat to a potential client who wishes something like this and will get back to you.

My demo needs to be changed unfortunately, as I've been working on a different project and hadn't changed it.

This plugin is for placing your entire site within a Facebook page, as you can see on this site we have for one of our authors:

The only two restriction is size & is due to the Facebook page at 810px width, but I suggest 800px because Chrome often adds a little extra.
It works really well with responsive themes though.

I would have loved to pick it up and work with it.
But, if Joe does something with it, that would be great..
That would be a nice combination..

Hello @joe had a couple of questions while setting up the plugin. I got to the part where I was setting up the Page Tab information and it is requiring me to have an ssl certificate. I went to the link you said http://www.startssl.com got a weird front page that listed a bunch of stuff not related to SSL, I refreshed the page and then some SSL items showed up. However I only saw 30 day free trials. I didn't see any flat out free ones.
Also not sure if I can set up more than one page on facebook like this or not.
appreciate your input!

Add this to your 'Secure Page Tab URL':
https://s14.phpfogapp.com/free/
Once you have done that, when you go to your page, there will be a box where you will need to place the exact URL you used for the 'Page Tab URL'.
For that to show up, you will need to have Facebook your Facebook security settings set to secure (not exactly sure what it says in there, as I don't have that and just use the boss's (aka she who must be obeyed) account to do it. If the box shows up, then you have this setting, most people do.
You only need to set the app up one time in Facebook, then once you use the URL in the user guide to link it to a page, you can select multiple pages if you want to. You can also add further pages at a later date.
I hope that helps, but if not, just let me know :o)

Hey @Joe thanks for the reply and tips. I'm still doing something wrong but have to finish editing a couple of videos to deliver to clients. Will try again next week and will post some screen captures so you can get an idea of what I'm talking about.
Thanks Have a great weekend!

That'll be good to be on the forums more. I'm currently working on 5 different sites (not even client sites, these are mine), so once I have those going, I'll be helping more than being helped.

@joe and @PC man you guys are really flying with the points!
Joe I'm so lost right now with my facebook, partially due that I had already had a page set up before. I was going to look for you on FB but not sure what to search for (after all Joe is such an uncommon name Lol)
I don't recall where but i saw on a sample page you or someone here suggested where when you clicked the link you had to like the page before you could see any content. That was pretty cool.
have to get some food but will be back in 45 min and try to do some of the screen captures.
Thanks!

Hi Dean
The plugin has it so that a user sees an image saying to 'Like Us' if they have not done so already, and they see the WP site if they have.
If you already have a page, that's not a problem, as you can just link your site to it.
I won't be around much longer tonight, as it's getting late here in the UK, but place your screenshots on here and I can take a look in the morning.
You can find me on Facebook at:

ok I was wondering as normally when I add someone to admin my page I get an email and have to confirm it but didn't get anything this time
Thanks!
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
What is the URL of your page on Facebook?
I've made a few changes for you in your app admin. You had too many of the sections filled in, but that is a common error as Facebook doesn't always keep things obvious.
Member (joined February 2012) Likes (0)
I believe it's http://www.facebook.com/Kausdj
Member (joined February 2012) Likes (0)
another weird thing isw the logo with the red glow was deleted but for some reason it stil shows up. the other concern I had is that when I tried to go to the kausdj page on facebook It appeared as if I was logged in and that the dashboard would be available.
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
Did you add the Facebook App ID & Facebook Secret to the settings in your WordPress admin? It looks like this may be the problem. See the image below to see where they are in your Facebook app admin.
When you view the site yourself and are logged into WordPress, you will see it exactly as you would normally see it, but any other user will not be able to do this. It works exactly the same as when you view the site outside of Facebook.
That red glow logo is a bit weird, as you do not have that one in the admin. This could be due to Facebook taking time to change it, which sometimes happens.
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
Another problem you will have is the width of the site, as it should be either 800px wide or a responsive theme to fit in there.
It looks like we do similar things, as I run discos/karaokes and have a small production company.
Member (joined February 2012) Likes (0)
@joe yes I did add those items to the corect fields within the plugin. Actually those are the only 2 things to add there. I'll have to work on the design a bit more tomorrow (actually lter today as its already after 5am and my wife is mad I'm still up )
Will try to adjust the theme as I'm still working on my prices and need to get marketing for my other services completed. I originally had everything under one site as Kaus Photography, Video and DJ Productions but wasn't getting as much interest. Anyway I gotta get some zzzz's
If the codes weren't correct in your plgin it probably wouldn't even pull up the template st all would it? Also not sure if because of the way the website is setup if that may be the problem as I have a public html folder there as well in the path.
anyway my brain is fried so I'll check bask this afternoon
thanks

Get some sleep. I learned that it is best to listen to 'the boss' at all times :0)
Once you can see the monitor again without blurry eyes, we can get this sorted.
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
I've been looking at this, and am sure that the error isn't on the Facebook side.
I have removed the public_html part from the URL, as that wouldn't be part of the URL itself. I've also added this to one of my own pages to test it and, strangely, the logo appears as it should do.
http://www.facebook.com/indiefilmtv
It is now just showing the like to enter image, even when I have liked it, so am sure that it is something on the WordPress side.
If you are happy to provide me with an admin account, I can take a look at it for you. Just send it to me as a message on Facebook or an email to admin@ the URL on my avatar.
Member (joined February 2012) Likes (0)
@joe
You should have it any time now. I just sent it via your email. Appreciate your help. You should rceive an email with logon and password credentials. Let me know if you have any problems. I'll be around for another hour and then have to get to an event.
Thanks So much
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (1)Liked by: 
I already got in there and fixed it for you :o)
As usual with these things, it was something that can easily be missed, as you had a couple spaces before each of the Facebook codes in the WP admin.
Member (joined February 2012) Likes (0)
Thanks @joe I actually cut and pasted the codes and thought I went back to make sure there were no leading or trailing spaces. Well it was 5am when i reentered everything...
Thanks Again for all of your help. Sending some points your way.
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
Thanks for the points. I don't mind helping as I think that support is an important part of providng a plugin, whether it is free or premium.
One of the reasons I like this site so much :o)
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
For those wondering about this. It is still available for download.
I'm just sorting out my site, and that will be available over the next couple of days. Once it is, I'll be removing the download, as I'll be selling it on there - so get it while you can!
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
hmm, I'm not so sure about this whole location thing now. I live in Fareham and was doign so happily until that last message.
It seems that I now live in Portsmouth, which is not a good thing, especially having been born in Southampton. Don't ask, it's long-running feud that I don't care about as I escaped Southampton to live on a farm, with a screaming skull (another long story).
I'm babbling now, so think it is time to stop working for a bit :o)
Member (joined February 2012) Likes (0)
Hey @joe at least your from somewhere! I had checked to share my location and apparently I live nowhere ;)
Congratulations on your engagement BTW. Keep in mind that I specialize in Destination Wedding Photography and Video! I would also get you're location correct. LOL
Later....
Thanks for all of your help getting my FB to work properly. As you suggested I will see about adjusting the theme to make it fit better.
Member (joined July 2010) Likes (0)
Blimey, I just read that again and see that my writers brain just set in.
In explanation, I used to live on one of the famous farms here in the UK with a screaming skull. Interesting as a kid to have a skull at the bottom of the stairs that can't be moved, unless you want to risk the curse.
No problem about the help Dean.

@Joe
First off thanks for the amazing gift.
I just took a look at the demo site on facebook you linked here, i dont know if there has been some change on FB since this originally posted but now the bottom of the pages in facebook seem to be cutoff.
Is the commercial version any different to the one that is here? if so i will chat to a potential client who wishes something like this and will get back to you.
cheers and thanks once again

Thank you for the points, I'm pretty sure you were not so happy to see that this has now run out, but I'm happy to give you a 30% discount voucher, which will also cover anything else on the site if you like the look of anything else there.
My demo needs to be changed unfortunately, as I've been working on a different project and hadn't changed it.
Just send me an email to admin@moonworks.co.uk
