X-Cart Facebook automation module
 
Features
  • Automate Facebook Posts:
    Whenever a product/category/manufacturer is added/modified to the store, the details will be queued to the facebook wall updates & will be published automatically into your facebook profile.
  • Single Profile:
    The updates will be posted into single profile. No Multiple facebook accounts/profiles.
  • Spam Control:
    The system allows you to control when your updates are sent to facebook wall. So they'll have more impact... all without the need to resort to spamming. By allowing time intervals between wall updates, maximum updates per hour will lead you to be safe from spamming & banning from Facebook.
  • Manage Facebook posts:
    You can manage (add/edit/remove) the wall updates posted from x-cart admin panel itself.
  • URL shortening:
    The product/category URLs are shortened automatically using bit.ly API. You can track the clicks, visitors statistics at bit.ly account which is free easily.

Hi,

I have 3 questions:


1.) Does this have any conflict with your twitter updater?

2.) Is it very resource intensive for the server?

3.) Has anyone tried it? If so, what were your results?

Hi James,

Answer #1: No conflicts. Both modules are separate.

Answer #2: No resource intensive. The updates are in queue initially. Only approved messages will be posted. Also, every 60 seconds, a post is written automatically picked up from the queue table. It is a simple query fetching and writing to your wall.

Answer #3: It is working well in live sites. PM me her or contact us at sales@mercuryminds.com for references.

Thank you.

You're not shortening the URLs? No bit.ly or ow.ly or even tinyurl integration?

Your demo doesn't actually seem to be publishing your updates (or not in real time,) so I can't tell whether or not the addition of a new product marked "Hidden" will be tweeted (which would be bad.)

Configuration options in the admin panel seem to be lacking - how do you control the text that is tweeted, etc? I don't see any config options around timing, are the tweets run from a scheduled job?

Looks like a terrific idea, but I can't really tell if the implementation meets my needs based on the demo and available docs.

Hi,

All the messages will be queued before publish it. Even, you can add your own using "add option" button.

The messages will not be published instantly. Rather than they will be published automatically using cron job with limitations (one update in every 2 minutes) to avoid blocking our account & meeting their spam policy.

Regarding URL shorten, we will implement using bit.ly API in the next version. At the moment, not. They have to be done manually if it is needed.

Please let us know if you have anyother queries.

This one is pretty important, if I have to manually shorten the URLs, I might as well send it manually too. You might want to make this a priority and... if you expect me to buy it sooner rather than later... I would offer that those that buy now will get to upgrade at no further cost.
