A couple of years ago (year 2015), Facebook added a feature to their site. They've added a Shop tab for pages. I'm glad they made a Shop feature. I guess, they noticed more users used Facebook as a good venue for selling their stuffs. I shifted to use the new Shop tab leaving the traditional selling with using the photo album. But over the years, Facebook failed to fully develop this feature. I found several issues.
Do you use the Facebook Shop tab too? Or planning to use it? Be informed. See the issues i found below:
Here are the found issues over the years of using the Facebook Shop tab:
(continue scrolling down or click "Read more")Uploaded photo(s) forcefully cropped in the product listing:
Some product listings don't show for some users:
Brief Translation: "I can't see all of the books you're selling in the Shop..." |
Comment section of the product listing don't show to some users:
Brief Translation: "There's no comment section (in the Product listing) |
And recently, they roll out a new sub-feature of the Shop tab, the setting of Out-of-stock. To my surprise, all of my for sale books were set to Out-of-stock:
The remaining books that are still for sale have been moved to new photo album (see below):

If you are selling and you want to use the Facebook Shop tab, hope this post made you aware of the issues.

I haven't mastered the shop of Facebook though I started it on my page. I'll check if I have the same issue.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried the Shop feature on FB. For online selling, I use Shopee.
ReplyDeleteToo bad literateknolohitura wasn't able to resolve these issues. It could have been a haven for book lovers.
