    Hi @partyselect ,

    I will take your advice and move billing to woocommerce until Square resolves the feature request. Thank you for your replies, it is greatly appreciated.

    Great! That should help keep inventory organized for you while we wait on Square to make the update on their end.

    It seems like this issue is resolved for now, so I am going to go ahead and mark this thread as such. If you do have any further questions, please feel free to open a new topic.

    Have a good one!

    Hi @partyselect ,

    Thanks for answering those questions.

    I’ve already contacted Square about it and it’s a feature request but I wanted to have a solution while it’s resolved.

    I want to confirm my understanding here: Does that mean that Square has indicated that this is how stock reduction works when using their invoicing system? That until payment is made, the stock decrease is always going to be in the available for sale category?

    I need to sync Square to WooCommerce because I have a storefront store

    That makes sense and generally, with Square our documents do recommend using Square if you have a brick and mortar shop. Even if you do move the invoicing function and the phone orders to WooCommerce, Square can still be the sync setting/system of record on your site. You’d just move invoicing to WooCommerce with the Invoice Payment option plugin from WooCommerce.com, for example. That way stock will be reduced more accurately to fit the your current needs.

    If Square does eventually implement the feature request that you sent them about the way stock is reduced for invoices, you could then potentially switch back at a later time.

    The Phone Orders and Invoice Payment Option plugins could be interesting. If however you have another option I am a taker

    The other option I would suggest here would be to find a developer that might be able to connect the available for sale stock numbers to the WooCommerce inventory as the source of truth instead of the stock quantity since the invoicing doesn’t use that and available for sale is actually the more accurate number in this situation. Otherwise, I highly recommend checking out the plugins I mentioned to see if they might help 🙂

    Let me know what you think!

    Hey @partyselect ,

    Apologies for the slight delay in our response again.

    I’m not super familiar with the invoicing system **within** Square since it’s not something that’s integrated into the WooCommerce Square plugin. Which I think is the root of our issue here–> The way the invoicing is configured in Square, it is not decreasing the stock qty it’s decreasing the available for sale quantity.

    I do understand that because of the invoicing system you have a delay on payment:

    I have to create invoices to companies that do not pay immediately who have had a credit account in our company for some year or example an employee must send the invoice to the accounting department who have had a certain delay.

    However, as you said, it should be reducing stock:

    I would have liked the invoice to be considered a sale when it is invoiced and not when it is paid and that the stock was reduced on Woocommerce when creating the invoice.

    I believe this is something you may need to reach out to Square about since again, the Square for WooCommerce plugin doesn’t offer invoicing support by default. While there might be some customization that could be implemented, I think that based on what you’ve said, it might be more efficient to reach out to Square support and ask how to configure your stock management to reduce the stock quantity upon the invoice being received.

    The other option would be to move your invoicing system to WooCommerce. How are you taking these orders right now? Are they through the phone or email? If they are, there are plugins like Phone Orders and Invoice Payment Option that could be utilized to accomplish the same system in WooCommerce. If you then switch your System of Record (or sync setting) to WooCommerce, you’ll be able to sync from Woo to Square and it might cause less problems.

    With that being said, I don’t know the full details about why you are utilizing Square invoicing (there may be a feature in there you couldn’t find within WooCommerce) so having a few more details could be helpful here if you wanted additional options beyond reaching out to Square.

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

    Hi @partyselect ,

    Thanks for your patience while we looked into this for you. Let me make sure that I confirm a few things first:

    • All of the invoices start in Square and are then paid by the customer. They are not orders create in WooCommerce.
    • In Square you have two stock options stock quantity and available for sale
    • Square is set as the system of record (or sync setting).
    • When Square syncs inventory to WooCommerce, it updates WooCommerce only with the stock quantity (or the overall stock you have) and not the available for sale quantity (which is determined by the amount of invoices/products actually sold).

      Example: You have 21 total stock of this item, but 14 of them are sold/awaiting payment, leaving you with 7 that are available for purchase (or free of invoices or orders attached to them).

      https://d.pr/i/YpeLq0Full Size: https://d.pr/i/YpeLq0

    If that sounds correct, then unfortunately syncing that particular stock quantity over to your WooCommerce store is not possible with the core features of the Square plugin. While it might be possible with some customization, you would need some developer assistance to make that work.

    With that being said, I’m curious as to the reasoning behind having stock counting configured this way. If the product is already sold and unavailable for purchase (regardless of the delayed payment process the store utilizes), why is reducing the main stock quantity not an option? Or what am I missing in your configuration that makes it necessary to separate stock the way you are currently separating it? I’d love to hear a bit more so we can make sure things are configured in Square properly in order to meet your needs :).

    Hi there,

    It sounds like you are having some trouble with the product sync between Facebook and WooCommerce. A few things to get us started:

    • Is this only happening for the product in the error or do you notice it happening for others (ie: are there other errors). Additionally, did the product successfully sync previously or was there always a problem with syncing?
    • If it previously synced properly, this error often occurs when a product is deleted from the Facebook catalog and when it comes time to sync via WooCommerce, there is no product to update. Try resetting the Facebook metadata for the product, once that’s done, click save and see if that allows you to sync without the error.

    If the above does not work to fix the issue:

    We’ll need to have a better understanding of your store’s configuration. Could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status? You can find it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.  Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

    Hi Charles,


    First of all, sorry for the delay in our response.


    Thanks for checking on your admin privileges. Generally, when we see the permissions screen show up like it did for you, that does indicate that there might be something missing in regards to the permissions you have on the account. Are you the owner of the Facebook Business account? If not, it would be helpful to see if the owner is able to establish the connection.

    Additionally, I want to clarify since you showed that there seems to be a good connection in regards to products syncing to Facebook. Do you see them on your Facebook business page(when I searched your page, I didn’t see them)?

    The “ad account” says it has 3 catalogs associated with it. I’m curious if that might be the issue we are seeing here (that an additional catalog was added with the new connection and products are being synced to an erroneous catalog). You did mention earlier that 2 years ago you had configure everything manually so this could be the cause. I suggest reading and following the troubleshooting steps in the documentation here.

     I’ve been working with FB Tech Support and they advised me that the woocommerce plugin should created a brand new business account and not link to the ad account.

    Have you tried following the guide that my colleague had mentioned in the previous response? That can help you remove any previous connections to Facebook that could be causing this issue.

    Let us know how the above goes!

    Hi @cutu234,

    Thanks for letting us know that the work around that was posted yesterday worked for you! That will help additiona

    Why was this solution not recommonded by the Woocommerce support team? Anyway, it worked and the annoying message is gone.

    This work around was posted just yesterday in the Github thread that was linked which is why it wasn’t provided as a work around here.

    Since this issue has been solved, I’ll go ahead and mark this thread as resolved for now. If you do have additional questions, please feel free to open a new thread.

    Hi @csyecommerce ,

    Thanks for reaching out to WooCommerce.com support!

    wc_facebook_regenerate_feed – action timed out after 300 seconds this is occurring hourly and is just constantly failing. I’ve see other thread suggesting its a memory or PHP time limit.

    If I understand correctly, you’ve been seeing the wc_facebook_regenerate_feed action fail every hour and you’ve already investigated the possibility of it being the php time limit or memory limit:

    >first my time limit is set to 500 so unsure why its getting 300 (i changed this subsequently hoping it would resolve) maybe the cron job is using historical settings for this task?

    >Secondly, my memory limit is set to 1G

    A couple things you can provide us with in order to help us troubleshoot this for you:

    *1. Could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status? You can find it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.  Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response. If you prefer, you can remove the site address or any information from it you do not want to post to the forum.

    *2. Navigate to WooCommerce-->Status-->Logs and look for any fatal errors that are occurring on the site. Take a screenshot and add it here. You can use snipboard.io to send us screenshots here if you don’t have a preferred tool for screenshots.

    Those two pieces of information will help us get started with troubleshooting this for you 🙂

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

    Hi @chillpilllike ,

    You will get your accounts suspended due to misrepresentation

    It looks like you are experiencing some issues with Google Listings and Ads.

    It’s certainly frustrating to have your account suspended through Google! Without additional details about the issue you are experiencing, it’s hard to help you troubleshoot what settings or product information may have been missing to cause that :(. We’d be happy to help work through any issues you are having if you could give us a little more detail about the issue.

    Hope to hear from you soon!

    Hi again,

    Thanks for the additional information about the plugins installed on the site that might be interacting with WooCommerce Payments. I don’t think that those would be causing the issue, especially since you noticed this happening **after** installing WooCommerce Payments on your site.

    Since you mentioned multi-currency not being enabled on the site, the best route would be to check out those developer documents that @felipea8c mentioned earlier as well as adding this as an idea to our ideas board.

    @rifat6 ,

    Thank you so much for sharing your process! Looks like you were able to get this done by editing the email template in your child theme.

    Appreciate the insight on this! Since this has been resolved, I’m going to go ahead and close this thread for now but it will still appear in searches for any other users that might need the same assistance :).

    Hi @rifat6 ,

    >Thanks for your reply. I already fix it. Thank you again @abwaita @sg9928

    You’re very welcome, that’s great to hear! Glad you were able to get that straightened out. Are you able to share with us what ended up being the problem (to help other users that might have a similar issue 🙂 )/how you fixed it?

    Hi @rifat6 ,

    As @abwaita mentioned, if you are unsure if there is a subscriptions plugin on your site or where this is coming from, you can share a copy of your system status with us so we can take a look and see where it might be coming from. You can find your systems status via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.  Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.

    The other option would be to edit the email and see if there is a way to get rid of that red mark section (the screenshot you posted is no longer available, so I’m not sure exactly what the section you are trying to remove looks like). You can do that by going to WooCommerce–>Settings–>Emails. If you don’t see the option to get rid of that text/red mark section there, you may need to overwrite the email template itself, but please note that overriding the templates is a developer level skill.

    Again, if you’d like some direction in regards to what might be inputting that redmark on your email, please send along your system status and we’ll hopefully get some clues there and be able to point you in the right direction of where to get additional help.

    Hi @aashish1423 ,

    I have getting the same issue initiate checkout, page view, signal event , view category and the view content. what to do to resolve it?

    As of right now, we suspect that this is browser related and you can take the following actions to clear the error:

    1. Ensure that no ad-blocking or other type of blocking extension is being used on your browser as this has been one of the main reasons for this error.

    2. I recommend reviewing Pixel Settings and the code on the website itself to check for any issue. If there are no issues in the parameters requested on the website and the code is correct, please run a test using the test event tool.

    After running that test with the test event tool an admin can mark the issue as resolved to see if it reappears after going through that process.

    There is an open issue on GitHub about this and you can follow along here to view its progress:
