• 1. It uses the regular price, even when you have a sale price defined.

    2. Every brand must be individually exported by hand. If your store carries 40 brands, you need to generate 40 different feeds -by hand- -every day- (the feed does not update automatically).

    3. Exports product long description in product feed… Even if this field it larger than Google allows (resulting in all effected products not being imported into google)

    4. Product categories are not saved… You need to scroll through a list of 5000+ choices to set the correct google category… This selection is not saved, so you need to scroll through the list for every export.

    5. Product categories are only provided in English. To use google in any other language you need to edit the plugin source code.

    The idea of this plugin seems to be only to promote the pro version… It is not useable in the free version.

    1. It uses the regular price, even when you have a sale price defined.

    >> We have added the option to enable ‘sale’ price to Free and Premium version – Great suggestion!

    2. Every brand must be individually exported by hand. If your store carries 40 brands, you need to generate 40 different feeds -by hand- -every day- (the feed does not update automatically).

    >> The pro version allows you to generate feeds with all of the brands included – and automatically update according to your schedule. Please note – you should be ‘selective’ about how often/what you submit to Google and other merchant services providers – some may consider too much volume or too many brands to be ‘product spam’ ??

    3. Exports product long description in product feed… Even if this field it larger than Google allows (resulting in all effected products not being imported into google)

    >> Both versions allow you to select which field is the description… We chop length according to the end merchant in scope (we have more than Google merchant now ) – perhaps you were looking at an old version?

    4. Product categories are not saved… You need to scroll through a list of 5000+ choices to set the correct google category… This selection is not saved, so you need to scroll through the list for every export.

    >> We have augmented the UI to allow ‘search by contains’ to make category selection – sorry Google makes that many available ?? Pro version allows you to save it. The free version is mainly for validation of your feed and test/one time imports to google/amazon, etc.

    5. Product categories are only provided in English. To use google in any other language you need to edit the plugin source code.

    >> Actually, we use the source of the merchant provider for the feeds (we download them and present to you – we don’t ship with any predefined). However, we will add a feature listing to review to see if the end merchant will respect a language flag and provide in that format – great idea thanks!

    The idea of this plugin seems to be only to promote the pro version… It is not useable in the free version.

    >> Well, I guess it depends on your perspective ?? – If you are looking for a quick and dirty way to export some products and see if Google likes them, or Amazon will promoted, or eBay will list them, or Shopify will promote them – from WooCommerce – then this is a great little plugin ?? If you need more – automated feeds, custom tags, selective product categories, etc. – then you’ll want to take advantage of the 500+ hours of effort we’ve put into it ?? Thanks for taking the time – we appreciate the feedback and you will see that we will be releasing on a bi-weekly schedule ongoing!
