I use the widget which you can generate from your dashboard (under shop settings on the left) to generate some code so I can ‘replicate’ all 60 listings on my shop front on my own Joysofglass .co .uk (non selling) webiste. This gives a page where a customer can click on any one of those 60 pictures and go directly to my listing on Folksy. And hopefully buy it,
I had to fiddle with the widget it generated a little so I got all 60 on the page but it works and I do get traffic to my shop from it.
With me so far. ?
I was just having a play with the generated widget and used the Https code generated as a direct url and fiddled the numbers and magic… I can now view ALL the listings in my shop, all the pages without any clicking next page or anything, in a single display.
How handy is that.
It does need your shop number … mine is 2481… and I don’t know where you find it except by generating a widget and finding it in there.
But if you put this url into your address bar you too can see all your listing at once, in order it is displayed in your shop.
You need to remove the space after https as had to insert it here to stop itf converting to my normal shop address
(that will show first 1000 listings so should be enough for anyone ! )
If you change the 2481 to your own shop number it will show yours instead.
It is very handy if you have a lot of listings as it saves scrolling page after page when you can’t remember where a listing is especially if the Folksy search won’t find it for you.
Just use CTRL / F once they are displayed and enter some of your listing title and it will find it for you.
PS This is the actual widget it generated which was for just a 4 x 4 display but I like to go Big
Hi My 60 item widget on my website is imbedded as an HMTL fragment and is this :
(with a space between first < and i and another between https and : as otherwise it won’t display fully here)
I’ve just had a provisional fiddle and made an extended hmtl fragment (just by copying my 60 item one and extending it in dimension and scope to accomodate 7 x 100 ) and you can see it here https://joysofglass.co.uk/ as FOLKSY ALL SHOP TRIAL
Will sort it out later and use it instead of the original first page only. After all, why not
Thanks so much Joy, I had no idea the widget even existed until you made this post! And thanks to your instructions I have even managed to make one and put it on my FB page. It will also be very useful for finding a particular listing as I already have over 100 and the thumbnails all look pretty similar, so it’ll save me loads of time when I’m checking things or making edits!
Small point should have made earlier.
I work on a laptop, always so my 7 up display fills my screen nicely. On my phone it shows two up so have to move to the right to see all 7 per line as the code is not device type adjustable . It does still show them all though on my phone as well.
PS you can find your shop id by right clicking when you are on your shop front and clicking Page Source and then using CTRL / F to find
data-shop-id
ie. mine shows as data-shop-id=2481. A lot of the ids are 5 or 6 digits.
eg @plumporridge yours is 42505 (I wonder if yours was the 42505th shop to set up here : )
The latest shop is 293504. but the one before that is 293499…then 293496… oh I hate it, no logic to how the number is allocated. Unless it’s the number of minutes since Folksy started that the shop was opened… no forget that
But anyway the very oldest current shop (at the very end of the new shop list is 4 and the next oldest is 47. (but there are some numbers in between which were shops which were active and selling but are now empty and Dead )
)
)
