Uh oh! Facebook page under ”places” not ”pages” (3 posts)

  • I have a client who is listed under “places” in Facebook instead of “pages.” She has 254 “likes” her url is http://www.facebook.com/birdsofparadiseks

    Is there a way to convert the site over to a “page?” Or does it even matter?

    If it’s a “places” page, can she do contests, coupons and events?

    Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated.  

  • Hi @deniserubright

    This is a pretty quick fix: When logged in as an admin, go to “edit page” then “update info” and at the very top you’ll see a drop down menu with the title “Category”. You simply select the appropriate category and sub-category and you’re all set. 

    Places, is a good choice if it’s a store or location that you want your users to check-in, or see a map, she can still offer coupons/events with either a place/or page. But other than that, any of the other category’s should switch her over to a regular ol’ page. 

  • Thank you so much. I know it was an easy fix for you, but it really helps me out. Have a great one. @luftherz
