Hi!

I’d like to ask how to set it up so that my product variants do not inherit the EAN code from the main product. Currently, the EAN field doesn’t even appear if the main product doesn’t have an EAN filled, but we want to ensure that the main product doesn’t have an EAN. Instead, only the variants should have their own EANs. I’d appreciate your support. Thanks!

Hi,

I’m experiencing an issue when trying to map the EAN field on product variations to Product Feed Elite. I have set the gtin field to the value alg ean in the dropdown, but it still does not populate to the product’s data in the feed XML.

When I sync this product to my other connected multisites, the field “_global_unique_id” is indeed syncing just fine and it appears to be the correct field pulling from the variations. But in Product Feed Elite there is no dropdown option for global unique id. So I tried alg ean, and next I also tried changing the meta key in the Advanced tab to _global_unique_id. Finally, I tried changing closest container to .single-product.

No solution has worked. Maybe these two plugins are just not compatible, or I am configuring something wrong? Maybe the right combination of these options has to be chosen to work?

Thank you for your help!

Hi there, so I’ve been using the plugin for the last 5 months and been super happy with it. With the recent update of Woocommerce, I just noticed that there’s another field under a product’s Inventory field.

Specifically, the new field is called GTIN, UPC, EAN or ISBN. Is it possible for the plugin to ”copy paste” the EAN to the new field for all my products? It’s gonna hurt like hell to do it for my 1300 products.

This is the screenshot of how it looks like:

Ciao,
Sto utilizzando il plugin wp all import (versione free) e il plugin EAN for WooCommerce, ma quando importo non riesco a selezionare e caricare il valore EAN, ho provato a gestire il meta key come suggerito, ma nella lista custom field non compare il campo EAN, da cosa dipende?

HI,

Is there a way to see which products has duplicates EAN in the dashboard of WordPress > WooCommerce > All products?

(get them red?, settings?, shortcode?)

Kind regards,

Yvette

even though i have disabled the plugin, and Deactivated the plugin, have still have Two columns still on the exported CSV showing EAN numbers

Meta: _alg_ean

Meta: alg_ean

do you know how i can remove the Meta data?

Good day,

I have a problem with the GTIN not showing in the /products/id endpoint, event though it is enabled in Settings, I’ve seen that it should be listed in meta_data field with key _alg_ean, but it is not showing. Could you please help me solve the issue? I’ve got another question, if it would be listed when retrieving the product by sku (that would be the /product?sku= endpoint)?

Thank you in advance,

Teodora

Hello, and thanks for supporting this awesome plugin! I’m currently facing an issue. Most of my products have EANs from the manufacturers (i’ve ticked automatic in the EAN for WC settings), but the products won’t show their GTINs on the feed, therefore getting hammered with ”Missing required GTIN” on Google Merchant Center.

I have Google Listing & Ads installed, I’ve assigned the attribute GTIN ->attribute:_alg_ean so I’m not sure what is going wrong…

Thanks in advance

Hi, so I am also using the cusrev plugin and found out that the _alg_ean does not appear in the list when tying to map the EAN field width the product feed pro plugin. I did see your solution here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/_alg_ean-does-not-appear-in-the-list/

My question is if it is really necessary to change the meta key to something else, because I just manually added all the EAN codes to the products and you said that its values will be deleted when editing the meta key. Also, I did find the meta key “alg ean” in the dropdown list and it seems to work..

So do I need to change it or can i just use “alg ean”?

Thanks

I installed the plugin and received the EAN codes, but how do I get the GTIN and SKU into my site? Or should I copy and paste them one by one?

In the compatibility section of the plugin page https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/ean-for-woocommerce/ it says that EAN for WooCommerce is compatible with WooCommerce Google Product Feed section, but there’s no compatibility checkbox on the compatibility tab in settings like there are for other plugins. I should have tested this before adding all my GTINs but since it says compatible, I didn’t think I would need to. Is there a way to do this? I checked on your WP Factory website support forums and in the support forum here, and I didn’t find an answer.

Hi, I use the Webtoffe import/export order PRO plugin and I would like to export the EAN field of each product when exporting orders, but I don’t see the way. Is it possible with this plugin or with another one?

Hello,

Hi,

I have created a supplier reference with the free version and now I need to add the EAN code. I understand that I must purchase the paid version to configure it.

My question is, I will be able to use both codes at the product level and also in their variations?

Regards.

Hello The plugin generates a problem on my site as soon as I activate it. Woocommerce + Xstore the Shop displays a blank page, and the site is slowed down in navigation. As soon as I deactivate it everything is fine. My GTIns are generated correctly but the site is slowed down and the “shop” page displays an error and a blank page

Hi, and thank you for an awesome and full-of-features plugin!

I need to only display the EAN of a variable product once. At the moment I have variations using the same EAN code, and it is being displayed like this: https://ibb.co/FDjc2Xn

Previously I had tried assigning one unique EAN per variation as well, and it would behave the same way.

In either case, I would like it to be printed only once per product. How could I do that?

The products are being imported with WP All Import Pro.

Trying to use this in conjunction with a product feed plugin (tried two, product feed pro and CTX). When mapping fields I see all the regular fields like product ID / SKU etc but EAN does not appear?

Hello!

I used another resource that was not compatible, I installed yours and found it amazing, and because it was updated, I thought it would support HPOS, but I just saw that it is not compatible.

HPOS is being incredible in website performance.

Do you intend to work on this compatibility?

Thanks.

Hi looks like this is the plugin for me however CusRev Reviews plugin allow you to have new EAN and GTIN fields under Product Inventory. Do your settings allow these fields to be populated or only the SKU which I would prefer not to change.

Hello,

We have the setting to display the EAN in product meta. The EAN displays in single products, however, it isn’t visible on any of the variable products product metas. For example:

Single porduct:https://palatialgarden.com/products/kobe-bbq-gazebo/

https://ibb.co/Tk3DLps

Variable product: https://palatialgarden.com/products/riga-door-extension-kit/?attribute_size=RIGA+2s%2C3s%2C4s

https://ibb.co/LRhSVLX

The EAN only displays in variable product if we choose – to display it in the description

https://ibb.co/m0q0DYt

We use the EAN for woocommerce plugin but when we want to add a variable product we add the EAN for the variables but the product is asking for an EAN in General which we don’t have as the EAN’s are for the variations. How do we overcome this please

Hello I’m using WP sheet editor plugin.

I can only Edit Ean if if the product is a simple one (without variations) . It doesn’t allow to edit variations through sheed editor – they have lock placed saying ” This column is for parent products only, variations don’t use this field”

Would it be possible to fix that ?

So that I woudn’t need to edit All the Eans by chlicking every single product

How it looks on WP sheet editor (please look at UPC/EAN column) : https://ibb.co/vdyzcYT

Hello,

I have enabled the Plugin Compatibility option to show the “item_ean” when using the plugin “WooCommerce Customer / Order / Coupon Export” to export the order data, but this field is not appearing in the order exports XML file that is generated.

I was able to make the field appear in the XML export file when I tried creating a custom format and assigning the data source to the meta field, and the meta key to “_alg_ean”. However, it has no data in it, even though I have set a value in the product settings.

I did notice that in the class-alg-wc-ean-compatibility.php file, on line 194, there is a @todo comment stating, ‘(dev) XML (at least in OrderLineItems)?’ for the export plugin.

So I was wondering if you have a timeline as to when this option will be working?

Hi,

Sorry for is there any snippet that can search orders by EAN or custom met key in backend? thanks

I use this same plugin on my other site and it works fine. I installed it on this new site and it only makes the EAN for the first product at the top of the “products” page in WC admin.

The first product EAN’s are black the rest are only 3 digit and red.

Am I missing something?

hi

when you print on featured or tools plugin

Generate EANs automatically with customizable EAN type, country prefix(es) and seed.

I think they will never be valid for marketplaces like Amazon or eBay… or am I wrong?

Hello guys! Ho are you doing? Happy new year to everyone ??

Well, we have an issue: we’re trying to upload EAN codes to our products, using the plugin.. we’ve tried with EAN-13 and 8, but still.. after we save the product with the EAN Code updated, it throws this message: “Invalid EAN” – check the screenshot: https://prnt.sc/M1f1-hnwqFVe

Any ideas of what could be happening? Thank you.
