Can't share on facebook?

I am trying to share some of my items on facebook.  I am using Chrome.

When I click on "share" the window comes up but nothing happens.

I've tried to copy and paste the link, but it won't let me paste it.

I tried using Edge, and a picture of a woman comes up in place of the pic of my item.

Anyone else having issues with this?

Re: Can't share on facebook?

@jackieludtke 

I don't use social media. And have been looking in past Threads for you. Back in May (approx.), Admin posted that this was a known problem.  To my knowledge it has not been fixed.  *(Someone correct me if wrong).  Other Sellers recommended pasting the URL of your listings and/or Shop directly into Facebook.

Here is the Thread (Admin's Message is gone though.  It has been "archived"; which means poofed).

I really hope this helps you.

It's still the same. It's been like this for months!

Etsy wants us to share on social but can't get this issue sorted out! It's so frustrating! Pinterest works fine from chrome, but facebook is still not loading. Please fix this ongoing issue!

That's a glitch with Google Chrome, it does the same thing with Amazon and many other sites. It has to do with accumulated cookies when browsing the internet. What Amazon has told me to do is use Firefox. You won't have that problem with their browser. Just log into it Etsy using firefox and it's smooth sailing.

Same problem here.  I've long thought why would FB allow us to post our things own their site for free when they have their own ad campaign thingie which costs money (or it used to).  After I couldn't share to FB my shop item there I just went into FB and tried to upload a pic from my photos section on my Mac and that wouldn't work either!
