Adding forms to Facebook is quick and easy using JotForm. If you have already created your form in the form builder, follow the instructions below.
We use Static HTML: iframe tabs Facebook application on embedding the form to the Facebook page. You’ll learn how to add this application soon, but let’s first get our form iframe embed code for Facebook. Follow this guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/148-Getting-the-Form-iFrame-Code.
Note: According to Facebook in this article, “Only Pages with 2,000 or more likes can create custom Page tabs”. This limitation applies to the custom tab used in this tutorial. This means that you can only install this custom tab if your page has 2,000 likes or more.
Adding Iframe App to your Facebook Page
1. Go to your Facebook page and on the search bar enter “Static HTML: iframe tabs” or visit this link https://apps.facebook.com/static_html_plus.
2. Click the “Add Static HTML to a Page” button
3. Choose your Facebook page to add the iframe tab and click the add button
Adding Form to Your Facebook Page
1. Go to your Facebook page and find the Custom Iframe App you just installed. It is usually found under More options named “Welcome” tab as seen on the screenshot below. See FAQ section below if you want to change the default page tab name.
2. Click “Edit Tab” to add content to the Page Tab
3. There are two options you can choose to display your form on your Facebook page. The first one (Public Content) makes it available to everyone while the second one (Fan Content) makes it available only to your Facebook fans, or users who liked your Facebook page. Make sure to publish your page afterwards. Check the following screenshot.
Adding Another Tab to your Facebook Page (Multiple Tabs).
1. After Saving & Publishing your first tab, click Done Editing Tab button.
2. While on the main page, click Tabs menu on the left and click “Add a new tab” orange button to add another tab to your Facebook page. If the page asks you to log in to your Facebook account, please do so, it might need a switch to your main Facebook account before you can add another tab.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. The page tab does not appear on mobile devices? – Page tab apps are not supported on mobile devices by Facebook’s Platform. However, Static Iframe Tab App provides direct URL to your page tab that is viewable on mobile devices. To get your page direct URL, simply edit your Facebook tab and copy the link you see on the Tab URL box.
2. How to change the page tab name and tab image? These can be changed on the tab settings. Go to your tab settings and look for the Facebook Settings section. Under it, you’ll see Tab Name and Tab Image.
———————————————————————————————————————————– Note: Always use “Secure Form Embed Code” when embedding your form to Facebook. Make sure the form URL found on your form embed code starts with https://.
It’s highly recommended to use “HTTPS” to avoid any security issues on the page since Facebook requires a secure protocol.
Alternative iFrame apps for your Facebook page

Is there a way for this to pop up after a certain number of seconds, or when a person scrolls down, or goes to close the page?
If so it could be a real Qualaroo or Popfeedback killer!

Wow awesome and informational site to me, i am also gonna share this site to my friends.
Amazing and unique informational site to me, i was also thinking about this great and awesome site.
Can the name of the owner of the fan page be seen, or the name of the person who is using the API be seen? (I ask re retaining anonymity on a Facebook page.)
Now that the FB app is added, those who DONT USE FB cannot use my app. I need to take it off, but don't know how... thanks!

I did everything here but when I did the last step it doesn't go straight to the form. Am I missing something ?

Bonjour,
Le passage en https fait que les applications iframe non configurées https ne s'affichent pas sur les pages entreprises.
iframe.apps permet de créer une iframe sans être développeur facebook et évite d'acheter et de configurer le certificat SSL.
L'application iframe.apps ( propose :
- d’ajouter dans un onglet iframe une page internet existante simplement en insérant son URL
- ou de créer un nouvel onglet iframe grâce à l’éditeur HTML intégré
(de la même manière qu’était géré Static FBML)
N'hésitez pas à demander plus d'informations.
Bruno B.
This is Great!!! It's works on my fans page now.
