Set an exact time for creating the feed

Hi svaldesm,

Thanks for using our plugin and reaching out to us. These are the current interval times:

Daily refresh: first cron run after 07:00h local server time;
Twicedaily refresh: first cron run after 07:00h and 19:00h local server time;

Unfortunately it is not possible to change these intervals.

The current batch sizes are as follows:
PHP version < 5.6 , batch size 50
PHP version = 5.6, batch size 200
PHP version > 5.6, batch size 750
PHP version > 5.6 and over 50.000 published products, batch size 2500

We are indeed working on a feature in which users can change the batch-sizes, however this is a dangerous feature because inexperienced users can set the batch-size too high which causes issues on their website. We will then be bombarded with support questions ??

All the best,
Eva

Hi Eva,

Thanks for the update. It would be great to change the time and also the batch size. Maybe you can set a huge warning.

Another unrelated thing I realized is that the plugin doesn’t get along with Redis, is there any known bug or issue?
It was working fine until now.

Thanks a lot,

Hi svaldesm,

We have been trying to make our plugin compatible with the Redis object caching plugin multiple times but never succeeded in doing so. As far as we are aware it never worked (we definitely did not remove any support from the code as that never has been live).

Best,
Eva

Hi Eva,

So this means that the plugin won’t work when Redis cache is enabled?
Or it’s just going to work slower?

Thanks

Hi,

We noticed during testing that when the Redis object caching was enabled changed product attributes (such as price and stock) were not always updated in the feed.

So the feed originally gets created just fine but issues appear with updates of the feed.

Best,
Eva

Hi,

Assuming our support is no longer required I am going to close this topic for housekeeping reasons now.

All the best,
Eva

Hi Eva,

Sorry for the blackout, I was out on vacations.

Unfortunately we need Redis for increasing speed on our site and I’m pretty sure more users will use it as time passes. Object caching is very useful for WP sites, as it caches many of the queries needed. For example, in our case we go from ~450 queries to ~130 just by turning it on and retrieving the info on Redis instead of the database.

I read another topic from about 7 months ago where you were speaking about this. Since then, do you have more information on how this might be fixed? I’ve tried other plugins (like the one from WebAppick) and it worked with Redis fine (we switched for other reasons).
Can you please elaborate more on any workarounds possibles to get this working?

Thanks a lot in advance and I really would like to highlight the great service you have, your answers are generally good, precise and quick. Cheers on that ??

Thanks!
