Unable to tag products on facebook

Topic summary

Product tagging on Facebook works on desktop but fails on mobile, suggesting a possible sync issue between Shopify and Facebook.

  • Archived and out-of-stock products still appear in the Facebook tagging list, contrary to expectations that inactive items would be excluded. This is causing time-consuming frustration.
  • “Archived” in Shopify generally means the product is inactive/hidden, so seeing these in the tagging list raises questions about how Facebook syncs product availability/status.

Recent update: Another participant asked if a solution was found; the original poster reported no resolution.

Status: Unresolved and ongoing.

Open questions:

  • Is the mobile tagging problem due to the Facebook app, Shopify integration, or sync delays?
  • How to ensure archived/out-of-stock products no longer appear in the tagging list?
