Help with facebook link on website

cassid

Hi,

I am a total website novice so please forgive me. I am the admin of a website and I have a link that directs people to our facebook page, but it looks for people to log in first to see that page. I have seen on other sites that there is a link where you can directly see the facebook page, any ideas how I do this ?

If you do take the time to respond to this, please remember my limited ability.

many thanks

Heres the site : www.irishprematurebabies.com

Seems to be working fine for me, I logged out and clicked the link and it directed me straight to your facebook page.

I just got the facebook log in page. I don't have a facebook account so there is no way facebook or my computer could have automatically logged me in. I thought you had to have a facebook account to see any pages on facebook.

Thanks a million for the replies. I am logged off facebook, and it won't allow me access to the page. Will post a website I found that brings you directly to a facebook page without logging in or being a member, you get to see the page but can't interact etc.

Looking at the source code I think changing your link from
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/irish-premature-babies/246233458273?ref=ts
to
http://www.facebook.com/pages/irish-premature-babies/246233458273?ref=ts
might help. I think the Home bit in the link might be why its redirecting to the login page, but i could be wrong.

will try that Dave, and see what happens, thanks
