New Share Link Seems To Offer No Choice Of Which Product View To Share?

Thanks to others' posts in the Forum,  I found the answer to where the chain link share button moved to, but now it seems that it no longer allows us to choose which view of our product we wish to use in our sharing.  Am I missing something?

I think you have to switch to the product veiw you want to see before hitting the share button, that worked for me on twitter anyways 😊

ShadoWind, I have tried that but it just reverts to the view "it" wants even when I change it before hitting the share button.  I sometimes even want to show two different views when sharing and used to be able to do just that with no problem.  Thank you for sharing your experience.  I hope I can get back to what I used to be able to do before these changes.  It also is not as convenient for sharing to have to go to my products page rather than just do it from the page that comes up after posting for sale which I always did before.

I totally agree that this is very inconvenient, esp. since the title appears without the product attached to the title! When sharing on the board I type the product in the title in the html code, but very time consuming and annoying.

The only work-around to sharing a different view is to change the view - be it temporarily - through edit details. But agreed not at all the easy way - and also very time consuming!

I wish someone from Zazzle would respond to the many posts about this subject!

As of today, there are no share links on my product page. I usually link to Pinterest or FB and there is no longer an icon there to click and share to either.  If this isn't a glitch of some sort then I think this again has to do with Rakuten. I'm really discouraged. My sales are like at an all time low. Higher prices... I'm not sure why they even promote the affiliate program anymore. You bust your butt to make designs and then promote them, just to get your referrals handed over to Rakuten,

@Joco: I had to read a lot of posts to find this out myself: look for the little bended arrow (next to the little heart) on your product page.

Found it. Thanks again!
