Shop Now - Fb

Many people have asked when the other products will be added to the Facebook shop

Now that Facebook have added CALL TO ACTION buttons on pages you do not need to worry

I just added one to mine for SHOP NOW but they also have Play Game, and several other choices.

As I want to sell everything I have linked to my artistwebsite, but if yo are not a premium member, link to Pixels and they will see all you have for sale, including the new things coming soon

Use the Call To Action buttons as Facebook will be calling attention to them more

Of course if you have to keep your cart there also because of the auto posting, just hide the icon in your menu bar

Or ignore this thread altogether

Another useless tip from the desk of Lady A

I really like the "Call to action" buttons on FB. I have my "Shop Now" set to go to AW site.

Ok at the risk of sounding completely stupid...what's a call to action button?

If you have a FB business page, Lara, go look at it. At the bottom of your cover photo there is a new button, next to the Like and Message buttons. Click on it and it gives you options on setting up a way for people to shop right from there.

Jessica, yes, I do have several FB pages... and now I see the "Call to Action" thing but haven't checked it out yet... my hubby got that "rolled out" to his page before I did but I now have it too, I see. BTW, FB changed their "search" system and I have gotten a couple hundred more 'likes' on my page, which I am thrilled about...and they seem to be people who "fit" with my pages theme.

Okay, I just set it up to be sent directly to my www.Artist4God.net page as I have so many POD's and the links are all on my website. Can I add a different link for them to be sent to the FAA Ap? (if we have one)

Thank you Abbie. I just set mine up. I'd heard about it but hadn't got around to setting it up. Easy Peasy!

Okay, I set it up but received the following message when I was "testing" the button connection:

"This Connection is Untrusted"

"...greg-jackson.artistwebsites.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: fineartamerica.com, www.fineartamerica.com (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)..."


Is this message due to everything being connected to FAA? Will potential customers receive the message when they click on the "Shop Now" button?

Thanks for the reminder, I had been looking out for this and hadn't realised it was finally available

 

Abbie Shores

Greg, It shouldn't be giving that. Others are using theirs with no issue. I will see what I can find out.

I had no problems with it! I was also oblivious to all this as I was tying to take 90 days off FB. So, thanks for that!

Okay so it appears that they have finally made it universal. There for a bit some of us could set it up and others didn't see it at all where to set it up.

Thanks for checking, Abbie. I use Firefox, so maybe that has something to do with it? Just guessing.

 

Jessica Jenney

9 Years Ago

I also use Firefox, Greg and no problem with mine. Can you post your Facebook page here so we can try clicking on it?

 

Greg Jackson

9 Years Ago

Jessica,

I didn't go through with enabling the button once I saw the warning. I'll try it again shortly and see what happens.

 

Greg Jackson

9 Years Ago

Okay, just went back and checked it. I had the url wrong, as I had added an "s" at the end of the http in the AW url. Deleted that and it's all good now. :)
