Auto update

@andi0tx,

Thanks for you question. No that is not possible. But I don’t think that would be of any use because (as far as I know) Google is only reading changes in your feed once every hour.

If you really want real time updates you need to use the Google API, which is not supported by us.

@michel-jongbloed Okay thanks.

Could you please let me know what the option “auto on” and “auto off (manual) means?

Also, how can I exclude specific products (not whole categories, but specific products)? Is there a specific funtion I can use if I don’t have the Pro version of the plugin?

Sure. (manual) means that the feed is not updated unless you do a manual update. This can be done ether by pressing the “Regenerate” option in the Feed List, or by pressing the “Save & Generate Feed” button on the “Product Feed” page.

With (auto) selected, you still can perform manual updates, but in that case the “Update Schedule” is also active, allowing automatic updates at the given time schedules (separate for each feed).

As for excluding specific products, that is only possible in any of the Pro versions. You could use the build in wppfm_feed_item_value filter (also available in the free version), but that requires some PHP programming knowledge. If you know a bit about programming, you can find more information about the wppfm_feed_item_value filter here: https://gist.github.com/Auke1810/c62bb043926f539f9a99b418c06a3e6e

Hello @andi0tx,

Where you able to exclude the specific products from the feed? Can we close your topic?

@michel-jongbloed no, unfortunately not yet. I have basic knowledge of PHP and am not sure how to create the proper function with add_filter( 'wppfm_feed_item_value', 'alter_feed_item', 10, 3 );

What products do you want to exclude from the feed? Is there an overall parameter that identifies these products?

No, just the IDs.

Could you send me an email to michel (at) wpmarketingrobot.com, refering to this topic?

I just did, thanks!

Solved by email.
