Instagram Shop keeps showing hidden solved – I recently changed to IG & FB checkout, and now IG is not displaying the shop. It Shows IG hidden and when I try to make it visible it goes back to hidden. It was working fine until I added the checkout.
Instagram Shop keeps showing hidden solved
I’ve spent two days trying to research this with no answers. So here is what worked for me.
I just disabled checkout on Facebook and Instagram, however, I did lose ALL of my prior product tags on Instagram. I guess, I would have to go back and edit all posts to add them again.
Well … so it appeared until I …
Started retagging newer posts and got errors. I did a refresh of my IG and they showed back up.
I guess there is a bug with FB and IG Checkout.
I even tried to reactivate FB Checkout again and it made IG hidden again. So, I just will make it check out on my site until that bug gets fixed!
Any changes you make are at your own risk. However, this is what worked for me. It might not fix yours, which may mean something else is wrong.

Update: Meta is forcing you to have Checkout with Facebook or Instagram starting April of 2024. I switched it back to the Checkout on FB and IG and it causes my IG to stay hidden. When I go to the Business Asset page and click to make it visible, it resets back to Hidden. I am not sure how to fix it so I can tag again and my shop show on IG. Does anyone know how they can help? It doesn’t seem you can get a live person with META help.
So, I guess it is not solved now, since they are forcing you to use their checkout if you want to keep tagging products. It just keeps defaulting back to hidden, instead of visible. If I try to go back to checkout on my site, it gives me an error message.
If you know a way to actually make it work, please feel free to share how. Thank you.
Updated: I contacted support which was not easy to do. They resolved it. No clue why or how to fix. Some of my existing tags are gone. But, I can tag on Instagram again.

- Barn Quilt Blocks: The Picasso of the Countryside
Barn Quilt Blocks: The Picasso of the Countryside – Ah, the humble barn quilt block – because nothing says “I’m serious about my rural aesthetics” like adorning your barn with what looks like a geometrically-challenged Picasso painting. Forget about actual farm work; it’s time to prioritize the artistic aspirations of your livestock. - Threadbare Tales: A Stitch in Time Saves Nine… Hours of My Life
Threadbare Tales: A Stitch in Time Saves Nine… Hours of My Life – In the riveting world of sewing, where needles are mightier than swords (and far more dangerous if mishandled), I embarked on a heroic quest armed with nothing but fabric and a questionable sense of optimism. Little did I know that the journey into the abyss of stitching would make the Odyssey look like a Sunday stroll. - My favorite cartoon

The Revolutionary Sewing Machine: Because Hand-Sewing Was Too Mainstream – Ah, the sewing machine – the unsung hero of the fashion revolution, or should we say, the “threaded rebellion” against the tyranny of hand-sewing. In a world where people once believed in the meditative power of pricking their fingers with needles, the sewing machine dared to challenge tradition and bring efficiency to the realm of fabric manipulation. The Revolutionary Sewing Machine: Because Hand-Sewing Was Too Mainstream Gone are the days when your grandma would spend hours meticulously stitching together garments with the precision of a surgeon.
