For makers

Chat buttons and sharing

Visitors who like a product can write to you in one tap. And you can share a product or a picture of your next market in your own chats and posts.

Chat buttons on your storefront

  1. Open Storefront in the menu.
  2. In the card “Chat with visitors”, fill in your WhatsApp number, your Messenger link, or both.
  3. To use Instagram, switch on Show “Ask on Instagram”. It uses your Instagram name from Links.
  4. Press Save the storefront.

Each product then has an Ask button, and your storefront has one Message me button. The visitor gets a ready-made message in the page language: the product, the option they chose, its price when there is one, and the link. They can change it before sending.

  1. WhatsApp number with its country.
  2. Messenger link.
  3. Show “Ask on Instagram”.
  4. What visitors see.

WhatsApp

Choose the country (+352 is first) and type your number. WhatsApp opens the chat with the message filled in.

Good to know

Your number is in the button’s link, so it is public: anyone who opens your storefront can see it. Leave the field empty if you do not want that.

Messenger and Instagram

For Messenger, paste your m.me link or your Facebook page link; we keep only the name. Messenger and Instagram cannot fill in a message: we copy it for the visitor, who pastes it in the chat.

No Instagram name yet? Add it under Links, then switch on Show “Ask on Instagram”.

Your chats stay yours

HobbyLux sends no messages and cannot see your chats. The chat happens in WhatsApp, Messenger or Instagram. What you agree there, such as price, payment, sending or pick-up, is between you and the buyer. See the terms.

Tip

Sold something by chat? Record it in the Stand till with Chat.

Share a product

In Products, tap the share icon of a product, or open the product and press Share. On a phone you pick the app, and the photo, a short text and the link go with it. Where sharing is not possible (most computers), the link is copied: paste it where you like.

The link opens your storefront at that product. Chats and social networks show a preview with the photo, the name and the price.

Share where you will be

  1. Open Where I will be in the menu.
  2. Press Share picture next to a market.
  3. Pick the language of the picture.
  4. Press Share or Download under Square (for posts) or Story.

The picture shows your photo and name, the market, the town, the dates and hours, and your storefront address. Your stand number shows only once the organiser has published the stand map.

  1. Language of the picture.
  2. Square · 1080 × 1080.
  3. Story · 1080 × 1920.
  4. Share or Download.
Good to know

A cancelled or moved market has no Share picture button.
