While the Google Product Feed extension tries its best to play nicely with other extensions there are some areas where specific integration can yield better results.
The extension has specific support for the following WooCommerce extensions:
If you have a query about compatibility with a specific extension, reach out with a
support request.
Bundle products created with the
WooCommerce Product Bundles extension will be included in the feed as long as a default configuration for the bundle exists, and is valid for submission.
Composite products created with the
WooCommerce Composite Products extension will be included in the feed as long as a default configuration exists, and is valid for submission.
If you’ve assigned brands to your products using the
WooCommerce Brands extension, then those brands can automatically be pulled through into your Google Product Feed.
If you’ve used the
WooCommerce Cost of Goods extension to assign costs to your products then you can automatically feed those costs through to Google Merchant Centre, allowing you to gain insights about metrics, such as your gross margin and the amount of revenue generated by your Shopping ads.
If you have the
WooCommerce Multi-Currency extension then you can submit feeds to Google in any of the currencies that you have enabled in the multi-currency extension.
Choose the target country by adding a currency parameter to the feed URL with the required currency code, e.g.
https://www.example.com/?woocommerce_gpf=google
¤cy=GBP
If you have minimum purchase quantities set on your products using the
WooCommerce Min/Max quantities extension, then the feed will automatically detect this, and ensure that the price sent to Google reflects the price to purchase the minimum quantity. So that Google properly understand your pricing, the plugin will also automatically send unit_pricing_measure and unit_pricing_base_measure information. For example, for a product priced at $1, and a minimum purchase quantity of 5, the feed would send:
<g:price>5.00 USD</g:price>
<g:unit_pricing_measure>5 ct</g:unit_pricing_measure>
<g:unit_pricing_base_measure>1 ct</g:unit_pricing_base_measure>
Mix & match products will be included in your feed automatically. Products where the price is set on the bundle will be priced according to the set price. Products where the price is set based on the selected items will be included in the feed based on the minimum available price of the product (the “from” price).
If you have the
Price By Country extension then you can submit feeds to Google in any of the countries that you have enabled pricing for in the price by country extension. Choose the target country by adding a pricecountry parameter to the feed URL with the required country code, e.g.
https://www.example.com/?woocommerce_gpf=google
&pricecountry=FR
There’s full support for
WooCommerce Product CSV Import Suite allowing you to import data into any of the product feed data fields. The plugin also supports the import/export tool available in WooCommerce core version 3.1 or higher.
If you are running the
WooCommerce Product Vendors extension the Product Feed extension will automatically include any per-product shipping information that you add to the Google Product Feed.
If you are running the
Currency Switcher for WooCommerce extension, then you can generate currency specific feeds which will include pricing in the specified currency, as well as ensuring that Google validate against product pages in the correct currency.
Choose the target country by adding a currency parameter to the feed URL with the required currency code, e.g.
https://www.example.com/?woocommerce_gpf=google
¤cy=GBP
If you’re running the
MSRP Pricing extension, then you can use the MSRP price field to populate any of the pre-populatable elements in the product feed by choosing the “MSRP from MSRP Pricing extension” option, e.g.
Unsupported extensions
Some extensions are known not to be supported, specifically:
- WooCommerce Subscriptions : Google do not allow the listing of recurring payment products in Google Merchant Centre, so there is no support for WooCommerce Subscriptions at this time.
- WooCommerce Bookings : Google do not allow the listing of event tickets, or services in Google Merchant Centre, so Google Product Feed is not currently compatible with WooCommerce Bookings as most use-cases would not be allowable.
