Amazon links not working within Facebook

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong here?

I've got a number of Amazon aStore's that I've installed for clients on their facebook pages however the links are no longer working.

I've updated all the aStore's so that they use https instead of http which brings the astore live within the facebook page but the add to cart links just don't work anymore.

As an example.
https://astore.amazon.co.uk/bimskitc-21 - works fine as a standalone url (try to add a product to your cart and it's fine)
however, try the same here https://www.facebook.com/bimskitchen...56218351098324 and the add to cart function just doesn't work. Any idea's?

Thanks a lot

Tim

**EDIT**

I've just noticed a warning in the url bar of chrome which states that 'this page contains script from unauthenticated source' - which I guess is causing the issue, any way around it?

Thanks

    Could you use a URL shortener? Or, maybe shorten the link via your control panel on your web host? Such as redirect with a subdomain link?

      Hi Lokahi.

      Thanks for the suggestions, I've tried to shorten with bit.ly but that isn't served on a secure server so the astore doesn't display at all within Facebook.

      I can't see how I can do a redirect as I'm not hosting this at all, it's Facebook and Amazon with no intermediary, or am I missing something?

      Thanks

      Tim
