Add Facebook "like" button promotion discount.
When customer like the page, it will automatically apply a certain discount to the shopping cart and the discounted prices are displayed on all items in the store. It's vital to increase fan base.

When sharing a Facebook store (or category, or product) on a page wall, generate a thumbnail and shop title on the link.
Right now, when posting the Facebook store url, no image or title appears, just a long and ugly link. It makes it difficult to properly advertise the shop!

Publish Cart on Facebook
Saw this on PrestaShop. When a customer checks out, they can publish their cart on facebook (if they want to). The cart will link back to the shop with their referral code. If new customer comes from facebook, they become a referral of the original buyer (and both get some discount vouchers). 600 million facebook users! That social marketing.

To implement a search box in the facebook plugin
I have many products (+300) in the store, so the facebook users of the store cant buy due to the sheer numbers of products. The solution? To implement a search box in the facebook plug in so customers can search for it in facebook

Add "recommend" or "Share" product or order on a sucess page after the order is made on Facebook
Hi,
Since share and recommend features are the very base of facebook sucess, i think it would be a great feature to ecwid if after the order is made a sucess page appear with a thumb of the product bought with the text: "Hi, i just bought -product name- in -shop name-. Check it out!" for customers to share with their friends.
Best reagards!

Provide the ability to add Affiliate Codes in FaceBook
It is easy to put the 3 lines of scripts for AFFILIATES in BLOGS and WEBSITES.
We need the same ability to easily place Affiliate Codes in FB for friends.
This ability will give enormous gains for ECWID subscribers as there are millions of FB users out there.

Place Big Store Name or Store Logo/Banner on Top of FB store
I suggest that place the Store Name/Link or Store logo/banner on top of the Facebook Store page (which appears after click "Open Our Store" button). It's hard for customers to recognize the user's store when it's just a small name link at bottom.
Facebook is an important platform for selling too, many ppl use FB as their main or even the only platform to sell.

Add a BACK TO MAIN FAN PAGE button
Once you click into the store it takes you away from the main fan page you were on and there are no links back to it!

Add a link or button with customisable url to return to facebook page on facebook store app.
A good location for this return button might be above the drag drop cart box as it is out of the way and easily seen. Also allowing target to be selected in settings for 'open store' button viewed after clicking tab on facebook page. This would allow external window or parent window etc.

Set some products as free for Facebook fans
It would be great to allow customers to pay some products by just choosing to be fans of the page. This way, publishers could make a fans base with some interesting free products, instead of just gifting them,

Two way Sync of Facebook comments from store to facebook page and visa versa so all comments can be seen
Two way Sync of Facebook comments from store to facebook page and visa versa so all comments can be seen on both the product pages as well as the facebook page no matter where the comment originally came from. (as well as still going to the users own wall)

Post product LIKE's to facebook as a seamless background operation
Why not simply post the product straight to the facebook page as a background hidden operation? Why ask the user to add text and then confirm the post? It's not necessary, you also don't know what they might add! So as soon as the user clicks like it goes automatically to their fb page, assuming they are logged in and adds the product photo with the (non messy) link and a pre-set text so it appear xxxxxxxx likes this! It's all done in the background seamlessly.

empower facebook fans/friends to publish my shop as a facebook tab
It would be very nice to let people be able to sell our T-shirts from their own facebook profile just by publishing the shop app on their profile. This shop app should be a light version, I think and I as the owner of the shop, should be able to see which facebook fans/friends are selling which items. In this way we can thank them for the sold items.
We are a non-profit which sells T-shirts for kids in Indonesia. And I think our fans really want to help us with selling our T-shirts.
Hope you like my idea!
Greets,

enter a high z-index in css for fb social tools widget
in my site www.ancientamulet.com, i notice if i click on the like button of a product in the storefront, that the comment boxk which pops up fopr sending a link to facebook, is obscured by the navigation bar on the right side skyscraper bar
This will be because the css needs to put a z-index: 10000; or something similar, to make it appear as the most forefront layer of code visible. If not, any products on the right sideof the page will not be able to post or comment to facebook, because they are hidden by the navbar.
