SOLVED - Jr Custom Forms
Installation and Configuration
Dont think you need the custom forms for that as your not wanting to add a new form to collect different data, but rather trying to add some extra fields to the existing form 'profile'
site.com/profile/settings
then click on the 'Form Designer' (as the admin user.)
From there add in a facebook text field validated as a URL, and one field for each of the social icons you want to display.
then in your templates check for a value and show the icon if the url exists:
{if strlen($_profile.profile_facebook) > 2}
<a href="{$_profile.profile_facebook}">{jrCore_image image="facebook.png"}</a>
{/if}
and do one for each of the icons you want. If the user has entered the URL the icon will show.

physical items usually require some back-and-forth to get the delivery started.
If your happy with just receiving a $$ sum and the message that comes in with the paypal payment, it should work.
The merchandise system has a back-n-forth message system for merchandise.
Problem with Projam 5 theme
Using Jamroom
if you look in the code for the index.tpl page, it looks like this:
{if isset($_conf.jrProJamLight_blog_profile) && $_conf.jrProJamLight_blog_profile > 0}
{jrCore_list module="jrBlog" order_by="_created desc" limit="10" search1="_profile_id = `$_conf.jrProJamLight_blog_profile`" search2="blog_category = latest" template="news_slider.tpl"}
{else}
{jrCore_list module="jrBlog" order_by="_created desc" limit="10" search1="_user_id = 1" search2="blog_category = latest" template="news_slider.tpl"}
{/if}
Which reads "If there is a blog profile set in the skin settings, use that, otherwise use the admins profile, #1. Now go look for any blogs which have a category of 'latest' and display the most current 10 of those in this slider."
So if your skin is the same as the default one, it means that you dont have any blog posts in the category of 'latest'.

no, the merchandise store is for anything posted.
It does have products quantity by default. You could add weight field in the 'Form Designer' easy enough, but would need a module to calculate the shipping.
Currently there are 2 fields that get sent to foxycart for shipping costs. 'domestic' and 'international' If the destination country is the same as the stores location then domestic is added to the shipment. if not international is added to the shipment costs.

You might like to check out @brian 's profile. He's done a bunch of guides on a similar topic:

There are things like:
"High Performance Jamroom On DigitalOcean"
and other server setup related stuff.
The _requirements_ are listed in the docs:

using jr5 to build an online store
Using Jamroom
Your going to have more fine grained options in a purpose built shopping cart system.
The merchandise store only allows for 2 options for shipping. 'Domestic'/'International' Whereas I would expect a cart system to have integration with a shipping calculation system.
The way shipping fulfillment works is via a custom communications system on each order.
so the seller and the buyer can talk and keep each other updated on how the order is progressing. Once the order has arrived at its destination the seller can change the status of the order to completed and it will be moved into the completed orders list.
In this way a seller can know which orders are in progress and might need to be dealt with and which are finished.
There are no coupon codes in the system.
It was designed initially from the thinking "bands might want to ship a CD by mail" rather than "here is a full featured complete shopping cart system" So it might be up to what your needing, or it might not. Not sure.
how does the subscription work?
