How does the module work in feed® ?
Important note
For image uploads to work from feed® to WooCommerce, access to the WordPress API is required. Assuming you have WordPress version 5.6 or newer, we recommend giving feed® access using "application passwords" in WordPress.
For more information on how to set this up in WordPress, see: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/11/05/application-passwords-integration-guide/ (If you're running WordPress 5.6 or newer and using the Basic-Auth plugin, we recommend replacing it with application passwords instead)
Alternatively, and for older versions of WordPress, you may need to use a plugin for Basic Auth. This must then be installed for the WordPress that WooCommerce runs on. https://github.com/WP-API/Basic-Auth The feed® WordPress user set up in the configuration must have the role "Author" (or a role with equivalent or more access)
The feed® WooCommerce module requires v3 of the WooCommerce API. This means WooCommerce 3.5.x or newer and WordPress 4.4 or newer.
Step-by-step procedure:
- Obtain access to the Woocommerce module for your feed® installation via salg@isys.no / 33 03 60 60
- Create a new WooCommerce structure to define categories and products to be sent to WooCommerce.
- Create a WooCommerce configuration and set up necessary parameters for access to WooCommerce and select the desired structure to be exported
- Ensure that the desired categories and product attributes to be used are created in WooCommerce.
- Create data mapping for your WooCommerce configuration
- Product data
- Product images
- Categories
- Relations
- Product attributes
- Base / Variant
- Variant filter
- Metadata If you use WooCommerce plugins that expect specific metadata fields in Woo with data from feed®, you can create these here and link data fields from feed®.
- Custom product attributes
- Test export by going to the structure and manually exporting to the desired WooCommerce configuration by pressing the icon shaped like an arrow with a line underneath. If you have linked the structure to multiple WooCommerce configurations, you will need to choose which configuration/WooCommerce to synchronize to.
The top node will synchronize all products located in all nodes.
Sub node exports all products in the node (folder)
Export can also be run from a single product if desired. This is practical if you want to test, or need to push out an important update on a single product. For a single product, you must click on the 3 dots to the right of the product in the structure and select Export to WooCommerce (and choose the configuration to be used).
