Facebook Vanity URL Question
 

I created a page off of my FB account. I then had 25+ friends on my page so I went to register a vanity URL.

On accident I registered it on my main FB account and then quickly deleted it and changed it my main page vanity URL. You are only allowed to do this once.

I'm not on my page trying to create the vanity and it's available, yet FB isn't allowing me to register it. Any ideas?

Jigga whaaaat?

My truck has a vanity tag .... DOUCHE

just delete all your facebook accounts, go to your local tavern and order a beer.

I wish that was an option!

A vanity URL is like facebook.com/gfy

Bump bump

Watchoo talkin' bout Willis?!?

You might only be able to use the custom url once.

What he said.


you can only use them once.

Awaits email asking to change the URL on those files LOL.

1 option of course would be to delete all your friends and turn your main facebook into your business one, to get the URL you wanted :P

I guess you didn't see the 5000 warnings FB gives you about how you can only do it once and how it can't be changed. Dumbass.

It was changed and nothing is wrong. The only thing wrong is I can't select a vanity URL and it's not in use.

Let me be more clear on what happened.

I created a page off of my main FB account. I then had 25+ friends on the new page so I went to register a vanity URL.

On accident I registered it on my main FB account and then quickly deleted it and changed my main FB account to something different. I was actually lucky to do this.

I'm now on my new page trying to create the vanity and it's available and nobody else is using it, yet FB isn't allowing me to register it. Any ideas?

Will FB store it in the their database for a while then release it bc. it was registered and then deleted recently?

If Marc Z was one of your 25 friends this would be no problem. Have you tried FB support?

I sent in a BUG report tonight to hopefully get some help. :helpme
