## Description

CatalogLift helps you find and fix problems in your WooCommerce product catalog:
missing descriptions, incomplete product data, incorrect sale prices and overlooked
SEO fields. See which products need attention and why, then review proposed changes
before applying them to your store.

Use it to check a new product import, work through a catalog cleanup, or keep track
of issues as your store changes. Each finding points to the affected product and
explains the problem, so you can decide what to tackle first.

**A CatalogLift account is required.** This plugin connects your store to the CatalogLift
online service, where you view findings and review fixes. A free plan is available;
applying changes to WooCommerce through the service requires a paid plan.

#### Find the gaps in your product catalog

 * **Product descriptions:** find missing, thin or duplicated descriptions, weak
   short descriptions and leftover placeholder text.
 * **Product SEO:** check SEO titles and meta descriptions stored by Yoast SEO or
   Rank Math, alongside the product content shoppers see.
 * **Images and alt text:** spot missing main images, repeated gallery images and
   missing or placeholder image descriptions.
 * **Product identifiers:** find missing or duplicated SKUs and GTINs that need 
   attention.
 * **Prices and variations:** flag missing prices, sale-price inconsistencies and
   problems with product variations.
 * **Catalog organization:** identify missing brands, category issues and products
   hidden from the catalog.

#### Turn findings into reviewed changes

 1. **Connect and scan.** Connect your store from WordPress and let CatalogLift check
    your catalog.
 2. **See what needs attention.** Review findings with the affected products and the
    evidence behind each issue.
 3. **Review a proposed fix.** For supported issues, compare the current value with
    the suggested change. AI can help draft product content for you to review.
 4. **Apply and verify.** On a paid plan, apply approved fixes through CatalogLift.
    The service reads the saved values back from WooCommerce and records the result.

For issues that need your judgment or a manual edit in WooCommerce, use the finding
to guide your next step.

#### Keep control of your store

Scanning and generating a draft do not change your products. You can review fixes
in the CatalogLift panel; if you choose to connect your own AI agent, it can also
approve and apply changes with the access you grant it.

Eligible verified changes can be undone from their change record for 150 days. Before
restoring a value, CatalogLift checks that it still matches the value it wrote, 
protecting edits made in the meantime.

CatalogLift also tracks catalog changes after the first scan, helping you catch 
new issues as products are added or edited. Monitoring frequency depends on your
plan.

#### Start with a free catalog audit

The free service plan covers one store and includes catalog checks, findings and
a one-time allowance to try AI drafting. It does not apply changes to WooCommerce.
Paid service plans add applying approved fixes, a recurring AI allowance and options
for managing more stores.

The WordPress plugin is free. Service plans have catalog limits and AI allowances;
see the [current plans and limits](https://cataloglift.com/pricing) before connecting.

### External service

This plugin connects to [CatalogLift](https://cataloglift.com), a third-party online
service required for catalog analysis, findings and proposed fixes. It does not 
provide a standalone audit inside WordPress.

The plugin does not send your catalog to CatalogLift until a store administrator
starts the connection and authorizes it in a CatalogLift account. Disconnecting 
revokes the store’s connection credentials.

The connection exchanges the following data with `cataloglift.com`:

 * **During setup:** the store URL, plugin, WordPress, PHP and WooCommerce versions,
   store settings such as currency, supported capabilities and connection credentials,
   to establish and authenticate the connection and check compatibility.
 * **During scans and monitoring:** products and variations (including names, descriptions,
   prices, SKU, GTIN, stock status, visibility and permalinks), categories, attributes
   and terms, brands, image URLs and alt text, and supported SEO fields. Catalog
   changes are reported so the service can refresh its findings. The connector sends
   image references, not image file uploads.
 * **When applying or undoing a change:** the product field values needed to perform,
   verify and record the requested change.
 * **While connected:** requests for a store summary displayed in WordPress.

The connector does not request order, customer account or payment records, or WordPress
user passwords.

See the [Terms of Service](https://cataloglift.com/terms) and [Privacy Policy](https://cataloglift.com/privacy)
for how CatalogLift handles data.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate WooCommerce 10.0 or newer.
 2. Install this plugin from the WordPress plugin directory, or upload the zip under
    _Plugins  Add New  Upload Plugin_, and activate it.
 3. Open _CatalogLift_ in the WordPress admin menu and click _Connect_.
 4. Sign in or create a CatalogLift account when asked. The connection finishes automatically
    and returns you to your store.
 5. Open CatalogLift to review your first scan. Start with a finding, inspect the affected
    product and review the suggested next step.

To disconnect, open the CatalogLift screen in WordPress and click _Disconnect_.

## FAQ

### Where do I see the audit results?

In your CatalogLift account. The WordPress screen manages the connection and links
to the service. You need WooCommerce and a CatalogLift account to use this plugin.

### What can I do for free?

Check one store, review findings and try AI drafting with the free plan’s one-time
allowance. All catalog checks are included. Applying changes through CatalogLift
requires a paid service plan. See [pricing](https://cataloglift.com/pricing) for
current limits and allowances.

### Will connecting my store change any products?

No. Connecting, scanning and generating drafts do not write changes to your products.
Changes require approval and an apply action in CatalogLift. An AI agent you explicitly
connect can also perform those actions with your account’s permissions.

### Can I undo a change?

Eligible verified changes can be rolled back from their change record for 150 days.
Availability depends on the field, its previous value and your connector. If someone
has edited the value since CatalogLift changed it, the rollback is blocked to protect
that newer edit.

### Does CatalogLift replace Yoast SEO or Rank Math?

No. It works with the product SEO titles and meta descriptions those plugins store.
Supported, approved fixes are saved to the same fields. Your SEO plugin continues
to manage how that metadata appears on your site. CatalogLift also checks product
data, images, prices and descriptions beyond those SEO fields.

### Can it write product descriptions with AI?

Yes. CatalogLift can draft supported product content from the data available in 
your catalog. Review the proposed text before using it, especially product facts
and claims. AI drafting uses your service plan’s allowance; a draft is not automatically
published.

### Will scans affect my storefront?

CatalogLift analyzes your catalog in its online service. Your store still handles
requests to read products and track changes, so scans use some hosting resources.
The plugin does not run the catalog analysis as part of a shopper’s page request.

### What happens when I deactivate or delete the plugin?

Deactivating stops the plugin’s scheduled tasks and removes nothing: the connection,
its credentials and the plugin’s records stay, and activating it again carries on
where it stopped. Deactivation does not revoke the connection in CatalogLift.

Deleting the plugin removes everything it stored in your site — the connection and
its credentials, its settings and both of its database tables. It does not contact
CatalogLift, so use Disconnect on the CatalogLift screen first; otherwise the store
stays listed in your CatalogLift account until you remove it there. Installing the
plugin again always starts a new connection. One of the removed tables is the record
of changes CatalogLift applied, and an undo is checked against that record: after
deleting the plugin, changes applied before that can no longer be undone from CatalogLift.
Changes already saved to your products remain in WooCommerce.

### My store uses plain permalinks. Will it connect?

Yes. CatalogLift finds out how your store’s REST API is addressed when you connect.
If you later switch a connected store from friendly to plain permalinks, disconnect
and connect it again so CatalogLift learns the new address.

## Changelog

#### 1.0.1

 * Works on stores with plain permalinks: CatalogLift reaches the connector through`
   index.php?rest_route=` when `/wp-json/` is not available.
 * Deactivating the plugin cancels all of its scheduled work and keeps the connection;
   deleting it removes its options, transients, user meta and both tables.
 * Security hardening: request handling reads only the server values and headers
   it needs, and admin actions check the user’s capability before the nonce.

#### 1.0.0

 * First public release: store connection, catalog export, change tracking, applying
   and rolling back approved fixes, SEO field support for Yoast SEO and Rank Math.
