Custom Tab Width Reductions Coming Soon to Facebook Pages

As part of its sweeping roadmap announcement last October, Facebook said then that it would be reducing the maximum pixel widths of custom tabs in Pages. While it had previously allowed widths of up to 760 pixels, the size can now only go to 520 pixels wide — and the change is about to go into effect. The company had recently said to expect it in late July, but we’re hearing from an industry source that the change isn’t coming until the second week in August, or so.

The reason for the delay appears to be this: many Page owners had designed around wider widths, and the company is trying to avoid breaking their efforts through the reduction.
