What do shoppers see when they open a post?

When a shopper clicks a post in your feed, a popup opens over the page. It shows the post and the products you tagged on it, so shoppers can buy without leaving the page.

  • The post: the photo, the Reel (playing muted, with controls), or every slide of a carousel with dots to swipe through.
  • The caption, shortened to about 40 words.
  • Tagged products: photo, title, star rating, price, a variant picker and Add to cart. Sold-out products show Sold out.
  • View on Instagram, which opens the post on Instagram.
  1. The shopper picks a variant if the product has options.
  2. They click Add to cart. The button shows Added to cart and a View cart link appears. View cart opens the cart page, even if your theme has a cart drawer.
  3. The cart count in your theme’s header updates, and the theme’s cart drawer opens if it has one.
  • Note: If a product can’t be added (for example, it just sold out), the popup shows Couldn’t add it. Please try again.
  • Note: Arrows and the left and right arrow keys move to the previous or next post. Esc or the close button closes the popup.
  • Note: On phones, the popup fills the screen.
  • Note: The popup shows the post’s small picture straight away while the full-size one loads.
  • Note: You choose what the popup shows under Feeds → Popup.
  • Note: Each part of the popup is translated into your store’s language. See What languages does the feed support?.
