Hello there !

We would like to use our website into facebook.

In order to do it, we would like people being able to register directly into our website.

Do you know how can we use you apps into facebook ?

1- People go to our fan page
2- People clic on a tab called "register to latinamundo"
3- People open the tab where is the registration form
4- People are logged using facebook
5.a- People are redirecting to latinamundo.com
5.b- People are redirecting into a special canvas

Tks you !

Florian

That's pretty straight forward as it happens.

In relation to your points;

You need to setup your TAB in facebook so that it points directly to your registration page. You could call it register but force people to like your page to reveal this to fans only. This will boost likes on fanpage.

This is a setting in the component backend - you just need to enable auto-login of your facebook users. This only works for those registered on your site, NOT for just ANY FACEBOOK USER.

As for 5a/b, If Im right in thinking that you want to give them an option to
  1. View your site at latinamundo.com OR
  2. View your site inside of Facebook's canvas
you will need a bit of custom scripting on your reg form - radio button or dropdown for instance allowing the user to choose. All you'd need to do is set 1 of the option values to the URLs,
  1. Your site - www.latinamundo.com
  2. Your canvas page - apps.facebook.com/[your_canvas_name_here]
The only thing you'd need to do in your script is to check the value of the radio or dropdown and do a header location to it.

If you're unsure of how to set up the apps, you should definitely read the docs - they are pretty thorough! JFBC Documentation

Hope this helps.

Best of luck,

Gez
