Title: [Plugin: WPBook] Error adding application tab to profile Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: WPBook] Error adding application tab to profile * Resolved [hmnapier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hmnapier/) * (@hmnapier) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wpbook-error-adding-application-tab-to-profile/) * Hi, * My facebook application [http://apps.facebook.com/rbwmlibdems](http://apps.facebook.com/rbwmlibdems) shows the posts on my blog, [http://rbwm-ld.co.uk](http://rbwm-ld.co.uk), so it seems to be set up OK. * However, when I click the “Add Profile Tab” button it says “An error occurred while trying to add the application to your profile. Please try again later.”. * I have `?app_tab=true&fb_force_mode=fbml` entered in the “Tab URL” setting of the application. * Also I can visit [http://apps.facebook.com/rbwmlibdems/?app_tab=true&fb_force_mode=fbml](http://apps.facebook.com/rbwmlibdems/?app_tab=true&fb_force_mode=fbml) and the posts are shown. * Any ideas to get this working?

It seems it’s a facebook issue or not allowed from facebook. * ??? * [trushna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trushna/) * (@trushna) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wpbook-error-adding-application-tab-to-profile/#post-1722993) * Hi! I’m having the same issues. * And however the option installable to seems not to exists anymore!

Could this be the crux of the matter? * [howvard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/howvard/) * (@howvard) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wpbook-error-adding-application-tab-to-profile/#post-1723040) * [@hmnapier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hmnapier/) * it looks as though your blog is linked to your facebook page? * I’m still receiving the error “An error occurred while trying to add the application to your profile. Please try again later.” * How did you resolve this? * Kind regards Charles * Thread Starter [hmnapier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hmnapier/) * (@hmnapier) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wpbook-error-adding-application-tab-to-profile/#post-1723041) * [@howvard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/howvard/) * No unfortunately nothing has been resolved 🙁 The tab appears (it would seem automatically) on the application page, but will not add to my profile page with the same error you are getting. * If I find a solution I will be sure to post it here, but sadly that it looking very unlikely at the minute. * [howvard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/howvard/) * (@howvard) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wpbook-error-adding-application-tab-to-profile/#post-1723042) * [@hmnapier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hmnapier/) * My link has now started working now, i haven’t changed anything and is now showing on the tab for the page. * Maybe facebook takes a little while to update… * Some gremlin somewhere???? * Thread Starter [hmnapier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hmnapier/) * (@hmnapier) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wpbook-error-adding-application-tab-to-profile/#post-1723045) * [@howvard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/howvard/) Wish I was so lucky!
