The Facebook Tab Page is obsolete due to Facebook Timeline changes.
If you would like to have a link to your campaign on your Facebook Timeline page, we recommend using a normal post (status update/URL) pointing to your Campaign Home Page on Facebook. This URL can be found on your campaign in VinattaHQ.
Please also note that status updates/posts can be made sticky so that it appear at the top of your Timeline.
Note. The rest of this article does not apply anymore.
