    My google product feeds are using SKU as ID and remarketing was working great with this great plugin. Since last updates it seems POST ID is being sent instead of SKU. That is harming our remarketing big time.
    Is the SKU feature not working any more?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @javierdemuga

    I am not aware of a problem in our plugin regarding product ID output. SKUs are still being output normally.

    I had a quick look at one of your product pages: https://www.ceroresiduo.com/producto/bolsa-malla-negra/

    The product ID for that product that is being sent to Google is “014016005”. This doesn’t look like a post ID (post IDs don’t have zeroes in front of the number”.

    Are you sure that the product feed still contains the matching SKU?

    Hi @alekv thank you for the fast answer, that is true, SKU is used perfectly when viewing the product page.

    When viewing list of products (category/tag), view_item_list event is sent but the SKU is not used and it is used the post ID. It also seems that there is an event for every product in the list when the same event could handle all the products in it, would be much more efficient.

    That leads to Google Ads receiving mixed IDs with SKU and POST ID identifiers and to have many warnings in Google Ads Campaigns about IDs not matching. I believe the remarketing algorithm is using the data from view_item_list events too.

    Anyway keep the great work with the plugin, it is great!

    I just double checked on my development install and the SKU is being output properly on category/tag pages.

    It also seems that there is an event for every product in the list when the same event could handle all the products in it, would be much more efficient.

    That is not true (for our plugin at least). It generates just one view_item_list event which contains all products.

    I am not sure if you are looking at the output of our plugin.

    Could you please send me the page and the the copy of the output that you think is wrong. If you want you can send it to [email protected]

    That leads to Google Ads receiving mixed IDs with SKU and POST ID identifiers and to have many warnings in Google Ads Campaigns about IDs not matching.

    Yes, that would be the consequence. But again, I don’t believe the post IDs are coming from our plugin.

    One reason though why that could happen with our plugin is if some of your pages are cached and are showing post IDs from when you had the setting in our plugin set to post ID. So you would have to flush the cache.

    But, if there is code with several view_item_list events, then that’s definitely not coming from our plugin.

    Anyway keep the great work with the plugin, it is great!

    Thanks! Compliments like this let us know that we are on the right track.

    My apologies @alekv, your plugin is 5 stars
    The plugin WooCommerce Google Analytics Integration is the one messing with the IDs/SKUs when activating enhanced ecommerce options.

    Would you recommend using only your enhanced ecommerce options and standard analytics tracking through Woocommerce Google Analytics Integration plugin?

    I would not recommend to activate both Google Analytics integrations (ours and the Woocommerce Google Analytics Integration). This will bring issues for sure.

    Our pro plugin currently offers a limited version of enhanced e-commerce. It’ll take a few weeks until it is fully support. I have all the code already, but need to merge several parts and throughly test it.

    Following options are:

    – You use our free plugin’s Google Analytics with standard e-commerce tracking
    – You purchase our pro plugin and use a limited version of Google Analytics e-commerce tracking
    – You keep using Woocommerce Google Analytics Integration plugin
    – You use some other Google Analytics plugin
