Facebook XML Flash. How to add readmore page and button Facebook.

This tutorial will show you how to add new Read More button and Read More page in Facebook Flash-XML templates, using Adobe Flash program in AS3 version.

1. open the ‘main.xml‘ file from ‘sources/flash/’ folder in Adobe Dreamweaver or any editor, such as Notepad or Wordpad.
2. Locate the page with ‘readmore’ button text and ‘readmore’ page.
3. Duplicate the ‘readmore’ button.
   

   NOTE: ‘linkPage’ number always starts with ‘0’. Therefore, if you have one ‘readmore’ button and you want to add another one, the ‘linkPage’ number for the second one will be ‘1’. In other words, ‘linkPage=0’ will open first ‘readmore’ page and ‘linkPage=1’ will open the second ‘readmore’ page.

5. Save this file.

8. Locate the ‘readmore‘ movie clip, which we will duplicate using the CTRL+C to copy and CTRL+V to paste method. Then, navigate to the “properties” panel and change its ‘instance name’. From “r_m_0” to “r_m_1”
