setting custom meta field based on attribute

Hey @mcdeth,

Would the best approach be using the pmxi_saved_post action hook with php function? Or is there a better way to handle this?

Yes, pmxi_saved_post would work best for this: https://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/action-reference/#pmxi_saved_post. The idea would be to check the brand value via $xml_node and then conditionally add the custom field with add_post_meta() or update_post_meta().

I don’t want to run this on every time I update the product stock

You can add custom logic to the code tied to pmxi_saved_post to only update the field when you want to.

Hi Trey, thanks a lot for quick answer, all clear now
