## Description

XML Feed for Skroutz & BestPrice for WooCommerce is the ultimate tool for WooCommerce
store owners looking to maximize their exposure on Greece’s leading product marketplaces,
Skroutz.gr and BestPrice.gr.

This plugin generates a fully compliant XML product feed, ensuring your store’s 
products are displayed accurately on these marketplaces.

With automatic updates for product additions, deletions, and modifications, this
plugin removes the hassle of manually managing feeds, saving you time and effort.

The plugin provides many settings in the admin panel to create the product feed 
tailored to your needs. In addition, it provides developer-friendly ways to furtherly
customize the feed to match specific advanced requirements.

This plugin will help you to easily pass the strict and challenging Skroutz XML 
validation process.

#### Key Features

 * Fully compliant with Skroutz and BestPrice specifications.
 * Full support for product variations with the new format required for Skroutz 
   marketplace. Variations are grouped by size attributes. “Non-size” variations
   like color etc. appear in the feed as separate products, as per Skroutz requirements.
 * Exclude or include products in the feed based on category, and/or tag from the
   plugin settings. If you need more control, there is a developer-friendly way 
   to include/exclude products programmatically.
 * Hide out of stock products from the feed, or products on backorder.
 * NEW: Set a global price increase that will modify all product prices in the XML
   feed.
 * NEW: Set a custom “Skroutz price” per product or variation that will be used 
   instead of the regular price in the XML feed.
 * Choose between long and short descriptions for product display. If one description
   is empty, the other is used as fallback.
 * Use the new native WooCommerce v9.2+ field for EAN/Barcode, or let this plugin
   create a new custom field for you.
 * Select multiple attributes for manufacturer, color, and size fields.
 * Select a Manufacturer from a product attribute, or native “WooCommerce Brands”,
   or even 3rd-party plugins like “Perfect Brands for WooCommerce” (by quadlayers).
   If no manufacturer info exists on a product, a default value “OEM” will be used
   to comply with Skroutz requirements.
 * Skroutz availability management at global level, and at the product/variation
   level.
 * Select the attributes to include in the product name from the plugin settings.
 * Add a fixed shipping rate.
 * Developer-friendly ways to customize **ALL** feed data fields, like ID, product
   title, SKU, availability, images, description, category, price, quantity, weight
   etc.
 * Schedule automatic XML generation using WP Cron or server cron jobs from Plesk/
   cPanel/SiteGround/GoDaddy or whatever platform you use.
 * Email notification in case XML generation fails.
 * ZIP format available for huge product feeds.
 * WP CLI support for generating the XML file.

#### Really Fast & Lightweight

 * Optimized for speed, as it generates the XML way **faster** than any other “Skroutz
   feed” plugin, and also using far **less memory**, minimizing the stress on the
   server during the XML creation process.
 * Optimized to run on servers with low resources. The minimum PHP memory officially
   required is 256MB, but it can run with even lower memory for small-sized eshops.
   The recommended memory for optimal performance is 512MB-1024MB+.

## FAQ

### The automatic XML generation is not working. What am I doing wrong?

If you’ve enabled WP_Cron functionality from the plugin settings, please note that
this method can be unreliable for automatic XML generation, especially for larger
eshops. The way WordPress works, WP_Cron depends on website traffic to trigger scheduled
tasks and may not run consistently on busy or low-traffic sites. It is generally
recommended only for stores with a small number of products.
 If your store has 
thousands of products, we highly recommend setting up a real server cron job via
your hosting control panel (such as Plesk, cPanel, or similar platforms). Server
cron jobs provide reliable and timely execution regardless of site traffic and are
much better suited for handling large XML feed generation tasks. Please refer to
the [Documentation for Developers](https://doc.clickup.com/2582906/p/h/2eubu-58615/d0b94a4b2c5331e/2eubu-58695)
for details on configuring a server cron job.

### I found a bug or something doesn’t work. How can I get support?

You can post your problem in the [official support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/xml-feed-for-skroutz-for-woocommerce/),
describing your problem with as much details as possible. Please include some error
logs, or screenshots of the problem to make the process faster.
 Please wait patiently
until you receive our free support for this free plugin. We try to reply as soon
as possible, but it can take some days in some occasions.

### If it’s so good, why it’s free?

We use this plugin for years in our customers eshops with great results and 100%
success rate in XML validation and approval from Skroutz and BestPrice.
 We just
want to give something for free to the greek ecommerce community. If you insist 
on giving us money, you can buy some of our [premium plugins & addons](https://www.dicha.gr/plugins/).

### I use a similar plugin for generating the Skroutz/BestPrice XML, but I have problems. Can I switch easily to this plugin?

Yes, you can switch to this plugin, but please follow carefully the [migration guide](https://doc.clickup.com/2582906/p/h/2eubu-58615/d0b94a4b2c5331e/2eubu-58775)
that corresponds to your previous plugin.
 If there is no guide available, please
contact us to help you with the switch.

### Is the XML feed fully compliant with Skroutz.gr and BestPrice.gr specifications?

Yes, the plugin adheres to all requirements and specifications of Skroutz.gr and
BestPrice.gr, and it can help you to easily pass the strict and challenging Skroutz
XML validation process.

### Does the plugin support product variations?

Yes, the plugin supports variations! Variations are grouped by size attributes. “
Non-size” variations like color etc. appear in the feed as separate products, as
per Skroutz requirements.

### Can I set a custom price in the XML feed that will be different from the price in my eshop?

Yes, you have two options. You can set a global price increase (percentage) that
will modify all product prices in the XML feed.
 Or you can set a custom “Skroutz
price” per product or variation that will be used instead of the regular price in
the XML feed.

### Can I exclude specific products or categories from the feed?

Absolutely. You can exclude or include products based on their categories and tags
using the plugin settings. If you need more control, there is a developer-friendly
way to include/exclude products programmatically.
 Please read the [documentation for developers](https://doc.clickup.com/2582906/p/h/2eubu-58615/d0b94a4b2c5331e/2eubu-58695)
to find out how.

### Can I customize the product IDs in the XML feed?

Yes, you can use custom product IDs and SKUs which is particularly helpful if you
are migrating from another e-commerce CMS, or an old WooCommerce installation.
 
Please read the [documentation for developers](https://doc.clickup.com/2582906/p/h/2eubu-58615/d0b94a4b2c5331e/2eubu-58695)
to find out how.

### How often is the XML feed updated?

The plugin allows you to schedule automatic updates using the native WP Cron, or
server cron jobs from Plesk/cPanel/SiteGround/GoDaddy or whatever platform you use.
You can customize the update frequency to meet your needs.

### Can I use WP CLI or a server script to generate the XML?

Yes, you can use the WP CLI or a server script to generate the XML.
 Please read
the [documentation for developers](https://doc.clickup.com/2582906/p/h/2eubu-58615/d0b94a4b2c5331e/2eubu-58695)
to find out how.

### Is there a way to know if XML generation failed?

Yes, you can enable the XML monitor and enter your email in the appropriate field
in plugin settings and you will get notified if the XML has not updated for over
4 hours (also customizable).

### What are the system requirements for using this plugin?

The plugin requires WooCommerce 6.2.0 or later and WordPress 5.6 or later.
 The 
recommended available PHP memory for optimal performance is 512MB-1024MB+. It is
optimized to run on servers with low resources and the minimum PHP memory officially
required is 256MB, but it can run with even lower memory for small-sized eshops.

Το χρησιμοποιούμε αρκετό καιρό χωρίς προβλήματα. Λειτουργεί όμορφα και γρήγορα, 
ενώ παράλληλα προσφέρει αρκετές επιλογές μέσω filters για να το φέρεις στις ανάγκες
σου. Keep up the good work!

Το plugin είναι εξαιρετικό. Είναι πολύ εύκολο να το ρυθμίσεις και είναι και πολύ
εύκολο να προσθέσεις δικό σου κώδικα, αν χρειαστείς κάτι περισσότερο. Να σημειώσω
ότι, σε σχέση με άλλα plugins για δημιουργία xml, αυτό είναι και πάρα πολύ γρήγορο.
Επιπλέον, το support είναι κορυφαίο. Είχα μία μικρή ασυμβατότητα, καθώς χρησιμοποιώ
το YITH Brands Add-On για την προσθήκη κατασκευαστών, αλλά ο developer το έλυσε 
αμέσως, προσθέτοντας υποστήριξη και για αυτό το plugin. Ειλικρινά, δεν έχω ξαναπετύχει
τόσο καλό plugin και support, πόσο μάλλον δωρεάν.

Το συγκεκριμένο πρόσθετο δουλεύει απροβλημάτιστο και κάνει ό,τι υπόσχεται. Ωστόσο,
παρατήρησα ότι δεν ήταν συμβατό με το Discount Rules for WooCommerce By flycart 
και το έλυσα με τον δικό μου τρόπο. Ενημέρωσα τον δημιουργό του plugin, προτείνοντας
του να συμπεριλάβει τη σχετική λύση στο documentaion και ανταποκρίθηκε άμεσα.θα 
ήθελα να εκφράσω τα θερμά μου συγχαρητήρια για το γεγονός ότι προσφέρετε το πρόσθετο
δωρεάν και ότι ανταποκρίνεστε άμεσα στα ζητήματα των χρηστών.
