Hi,

When I right click on the image ‘copy image location’ does not appear.

David,

The Insert/Edit image function is 9 icons over from the left in your Custom Profile Box dashboard. It’s the one with the image of the mountain on it.

Once you’ve uploaded your image, click on the image once, then click the Insert/Edit link icon (the one that looks like a chain, seven icons from the left) and paste in the URL from your Facebook page.

Here’s Step #6 again: To make your image link directly to your Facebook page, you need to create a hyperlink. Copy the URL of your Facebook page, then click once on the image of the logo you just added to the Custom Profile Box. Click the Insert/Edit link icon and paste in the URL to your Facebook business page.

I did this after I uploaded the logo of my Facebook page by clicking on the image and then creating a link to the URL of my page. Try this and let me know if it doesn’t work and I’ll help you troubleshoot.

Aha! I’ve been trying to figure this out for ages. Had no success until I found this page. Thanks for sharing! Solved my Zazzle problem too.

Alyssa,

Last I heard, Facebook requires business pages to have 25 fans before you can register a custom URL. You have that many so this should work for you:

You can create a custom user name for your personal profile (and create one for your fan page if it lets you) here: http://www.facebook.com/username/

I just did it for my Blogging Bistro business page. It’s now located at http://www.facebook.com/bloggingbistro

Now I have a question, can I get my unique URL now for my Facebook Beauty by Design Ministries fan page? If so how?

Wouldn’t you know it — I did leave out a step in my original tutorial! I inserted it as the new #6 (for those of you who subscribe to e-mail updates and received the original article):

6. To make your image link directly to your Facebook page, you need to create a hyperlink. Copy the URL of your Facebook page, then click once on the image of the logo you just added to the Custom Profile Box. Click the Insert/Edit link icon and paste in the URL to your Facebook business page.

My apologies!
