Setting Defaults For The "shop" Tab On Facebook

I think I've read every discussion here regarding FAA's Shopping Cart App and watched the tutorial, etc. I have the app posted on my Facebook Fan Page and it is working but each time I visit my fan page it defaults to my Timeline. I manually have to click on the "Shop" Tab under the Cover Photo or click the FAA App "Shop" to the left of my page. I've used "Manage Tabs" to change the order of them but that doesn't solve my problem.

When I click on other member's Facebook Fan Pages they have them set up correctly and they immediately default to Shop. Can anyone tell me what setting I need to change?

Thanks in advance...

If you click on the "more" button you will see a link to manage the tabs. I can not, however, get my shop tab to move above or ahead of the "about" tab...so I'm not sure how this can be done.

Dyle - The default landing page is always timeline and has been for quite awhile. In the past you could "like gate" your page and make people visit certain tabs before they could see your timeline but that was changed a year or two ago.

Could it be the other users who are sharing their pages are including the app in the url you're following?

For instance, if you shared this link:

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dyle-Warren-Photography/1652338298335123?sk=app_309028460694

People would land on your shop tab - note the little ?sk=app_309028460694 at the end of that URL - that directs people following your link to that specific tab rather than timeline. But anyone following the link you provided in your original post will always by default land on the timeline view.
