Web Designer Forums After a lot of research and rooting around I've solved this problem WITHOUT using Playaks' solution of changing the spaces to &nbsp; The issue is not that FB is not able to scrape or properly read templates generated by Artisteer, but that the site has not been "linted" by Facebook (I'll come back to this later). Before you LINT you need add the FB open graph tags you want to use. There is a description of these on this page: You add these tags in the HTML <head> section of your template index.php file. <head> <title>i am piano. play me. For complete FB integration I recommend using all these tags, but I do not think it is required. Save your template index.php file. If you've entered all your tags correctly you should get a nice report back from FB linter telling you everything looks great and your site should now properly display all the info when you post your link in FB. I hope this helps!

Artisteer Beta 3 HTML Site to Facebook Minisite | | Digital RaindropsDigital Raindrops Here is a short pictorial overview of taking an Artisteer HTML template across to a Facebook Minisite. We have used the Artisteer Sample called Alpha Motors as our template. Set the sheet width to 520px, and set the pages to just four, because of the menu, edit the content to about 800px high. Change the file extensions from html to php Open each of the four files and change the href links page extensions. IMPORTANT: Unlike the FBML we do not need to add absolute paths for files or images, as IFrame will use the relative path like a normal website. Upload the folder to your website via FTP. Test your website by typing the URL in any browser and have a look, make any changes, test the menu etc: Over on Facebook Developers create a new Application and add the path’s, see this post Step 4 to Step 10 for the Facebook part! Here is a Live Twenty Ten site as a Facebook Minisite (Tutorial Coming Later for this one) Here is Alpha Motors as a Facebook Minisite Notices Code disclaimer information Membership

Create a Facebook Mini-Site from Artisteer | | Digital RaindropsDigital Raindrops We are writing a WordPress plugin for creating Facebook mini-sites, and had an email from the Artisteer forum asking about making a mini-site from an Artisteer generated theme. Thinking about this and the different flavours of CMS template and themes created by Artisteer a WordPress plugin may not suit all, so here is the process in pictorial steps for creating a Facebook Micro-site from Artisteer. Facebook Fan-Pages and Micro-Sites Fan Pages and Micro-sites are not a part of your normal Facebook page, they are in a different area, you can use these to promote services, products, events etc, separate from you personal Facebook account. We will not go into this in any detail, we can just use Google and research if we do not know to much about them. Sheet Width First thing we do is open our Artisteer template save it with a new name and change the sheet width, here is a screenshot of how to do this, set this to 520px.
