Hey there guys, I just wanted to update everyone watching this video that Facebook has recently outlawed the HTML profile box which now makes it impossible to add an optin form to your profile.
However, there is an alternative. Facebook is really favoring "Like" pages now. I suggest you create one and install the FBML app so you can customize your own tab there and generate leads from that.
Excellent training video...but has facebook now withdrawn the facility? It doesn't retain my HTML code when I save it, nor does it give me the option to "add" the box
ok you type html in the box, straight after you seem to type some search key, were abouts is the search key your pressing, cause i either don't have it or can't see it, please
Can you tell me how to do this on the new facebook? I looked and tried to do this, but I do not have browse more apps? I might be missing something but cannot find it. Cheers RT
gr8 vid Matthew, now just trying to tweak my pretty form to fit inside the box..lol...hey I have a facebook fanpage strategy that I'm using that adds a pop up to you fanpage, check out my channel...thx again
@stoneteele96 That's pretty much what you're gonna have to do. There would be no point in capturing names and email if you're not building a database of subscribers.
@MrStrikeFreedom Probably because Facebook doesn't want you to do that. So they have a script in there that blocks certain aspects of the YouTube embed code, thus making it not function.
The box is meant for HTML only. Basic stuff, ya know.
what if i want a picture of me? ill just put the HTML? on the box? and continue? !

I recommend getting either GetResponse or Aweber.

I DON'T WANT some profile box to get your email or anything.
All I want is to embed YouTube videos why won't it let me do so?
