    Hi!

    I’m trying to make an xml file with some rules and i need your help!

    I have some products (woocommerce) and i want to export them but i want to change some data on XML…

    For example:
    2 products have in taxonomy the brand ”COLGATE”
    and
    3 products have in taxonomy the brand ”COLGATEFORKIDS”

    because the manufacturer is the ”PROCT&GRAMBLE” for both of them,

    how to indicate on XML for this 5 products as brand ”PROCT&GRAMBLE” ???

    Thank you in Advanced!

    Hi @headplus,

    Just to clarify, are you saying that you want to do something like this:

    IF brand is "COLGATE" 
OR brand is "COLGATEFORKIDS" 
AND manufacturer is "PROCT&GRAMBLE"
Return "PROCT&GRAMBLE" as the brand

ELSE
Return whatever is in the brand taxonomy.

    Or, am I misunderstanding?

    Hi @headplus,

    Okay, you’ll definitely need to write a function for that: https://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/export/pass-data-through-php-functions/. Here is an example that you can modify as needed:

    function my_get_brand( $brand, $manufacturer ) {
    if ( ( $brand == 'COLGATE' || $brand == 'COLGATEFORKIDS' ) && $manufacturer == 'PROCT&GRAMBLE' ) {
        return 'PROCT&GRAMBLE';
    } else {
        return $brand;
    }
}

    This would be used in a Custom XML Feed like this:

    <brand>CDATABEGIN[my_get_brand({Brands},{Manufacturers})]CDATACLOSE</brand>

    This includes CDATA tags because of the ampersand, just be sure to replace {Brands} and {Manufacturers} with the correct export elements on your site.
