expiration_date

Hi @ozspots

our products change daily. Items that are deleted are not being deleted from GMC and only delete at 30 days expiry.

The behavior you’re experiencing is actually expected. The Google Merchant Center (GMC) typically holds onto product data for 30 days before it’s automatically deleted, which is likely why you’re noticing a delay in product deletion.

Is this a issue with not deleting or does this plugin allow changing the ‘expiration_date’ or ‘expirationDate’ attribute?

It’s not directly editable through the plugin. The expiration date is automatically set by Google and typically defaults to 30 days after the product is listed.

However, as your products change daily, you can manually update your product feed sync more frequently to ensure that GMC has the most up-to-date information. To do so, navigate to https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=connection-test-admin-page (replace example.com with your domain) and use the Sync Product tool.

I hope this clarifies your concern. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.

ok thanks

I was finding GMC wasn’t deleting products that were no longer in WC

But a full delete and that tool seems to have fixed it, cheers
