I have a question for a friend.
She would like to know how you get a “SHOP NOW” thing on your facebook page.
I dont know because I do mine thru my website, which I set up yonks ago. I just clicked a few buttons in my websites dashboard, filled in my fb page address and it appeared.
But she doesn’t have a website. So how do people sell via fb without a website like mine?
Can it be done on a personal page or does it have to be via a business page?
Does she sell on folksy, if so she can add that but I can’t quite remember how I did mine.
A little bit of advertising for Bella & Grace!!
This one is viewed from an iphone
I have messaged Bella & Grace on fb so waiting for a response!
Worked it out, easy when you know how!!
For all those that want to know, click on Call to action on the fb banner.
A box comes up, use the drop down box to select Shop Now and add your website.
Easy!
Or in my case when I did it I added my Folksy shop as all my ‘automated’'sales are via my shop on here.
Hi @JOYSofGLASS and @TandMArtsandCrafts do you know if you can still add your Folksy shop as a Shop Now link on Facebook? I’ve been trying all week to work it out and it just doesn’t seem to work for me.
The answer is not the way the Shop Now button used to be but there are a few work arounds I use.
If you edit you Action button… click the dots on the right and then it appears in the dropdown menu
You can then edit the action button to have your Folksy shop link…
Contact button is nowhere near as good as the original shop now button but best i can do. The current Shop button can only be used for shopping using FB and co facilties 
I do also highlight my Folksy shop link as my Intro as well as within my linktree and list of all my shops.
Unfortunately, that’s what I’ve been trying to do but I can’t seem to get a Shop Now button unless I join some weird external payment group, which I don’t need as it all goes through Folksy. I can get it to list my Folksy weblink but it’s hidden way down the page. Maybe they’ve stopped collaborating.
I don’t think I’ve updated my intro for a while though, so I will definitely add my link there.
Thank you!
It was a horrid shock when the Shop now changed !!
I can
Imagine! And it just seems so unfair - although probably fine because FB got no money from it.
I’ve also been trying to work out if I can link Folksy to Instagram and I’ve given up. It’s all so unnecessarily complicated
