Timeline – image of Events box – changeable? (8 posts)

Topic tags: events, Facebook, image, Timeline
  • I have switched my pages to Facebook Timeline already. For one of the pages I administer I have created several events, all with an image attached. In the Events box of that page it shows the image related to the very last event of the year. I think that showing the picture of the event coming up next would be more beneficial. So I was wondering if it’s possible to change the image resp swap the currently shown picture with another events image.

  • Looks like you can’t change the image on the Events app, @claudiapoeckl – you may just want to remove it from your apps list (click on the Pencil icon after you have expanded all your apps with the down arrow on the right and click Edit Settings) or just move it lower down so it’s not showing in the top part of the apps.  Hope that helps!

  • @claudiapoeckl ~ what you’re saying makes sense.  Our places are closed for the moment but will be opening back up soon and, with golf season comes a lot of events . . . I would want my events box to show the next event, too . . . or, at least give me an option of which to display!

  • I found several resources and compiled them all into a blog post athttp://time2mrkt.com/facebook/time-for-timeline/

  • Thank you all for your feedback. Let’s see what FB will fix in the coming weeks…

  • I was doubting about Facebook APPS, but now I have this issue clear. I agree with FB’s representatives who said that the new features on Brands Timelines will make them more ‘social’ and ‘human’. I also found several resources and put them together into this post. Hope it will help! regards! thanks for sharing! :D  

  • daNG…we  have   4  big events  and i  will sure  be  watchIng this  topic for  solutions…….  i would   want the box to  show the upcoming one for sure…. 

  • I wish they would let us change the thumbnail for Photos, Videos, Events and Notes..
