Hi guys, i’m setting up an affiliate store with wordpress/woocommerce, i only know that i can add an external link to the product page, but is there a way i can integrate the price and availability of the product from the link, so i don’t have to update the price manually? I mean the product will update itself when the price is changed or sold out.

I know there are plugins for amazon affliate, but i’m not selling amazon products.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there,

There are definitely methods to do that, but they can be quite tricky to configure:

Check with the target website on whether they have an integration with WooCommerce to automatically update/import products using a REST API – this is the best case scenario;
Use a scheduled CSV import ti automatically reimport products based on a CSV file that the target website makes available periodically. For scheduled CSV imports in WordPress, have a look at https://www.wpallimport.com/.
Create a custom REST API integration yourself to fetch products from the target website (assuming they have an endpoint available) – the complexity of this varies depending on whether the target website is *also* running WooCommerce or another platform altogether
If they have a publicly accessible API that’s linked to zapier.com, you could make use of https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-zapier/ to update the affected product on your site whenever a change is detected on the target site.
