Product XML Feeds for WooCommerce plugin lets you add multiple WooCommerce product XML feeds. Each feed can be configured separately. Feeds are automatically periodically regenerated using crons.

You can set custom XML templates for the feed – this way you can create XML feed according to any specifications. Feeds are created using plugin’s shortcodes. Different templates can be set for:

XML header.
XML item.
XML footer.

In addition you can set custom XML file path and name.

To include only certain products in feed, you can use these options:

Products to include/exclude.
Product categories to include/exclude.
Product tags to include/exclude.
Variable products: Variable products only; Variation products only; Both variable and variation products.
Products scope: All products; Only products that are on sale; Only products that are not on sale; Only products that are featured; Only products that are not featured.
Stock status: In stock products; Out of stock products; On backorder products.
Min and max product prices.
Catalog visibility: Shop and search results; Shop only; Search results only; Hidden products.
Custom taxonomy to include.
Attribute to include.

You can also choose the update (i.e. regeneration) period (weekly by default): Every minute; Hourly; Twice daily; Daily; Weekly.

Plugin is WPML compatible. I.e. you can create separate product feeds for each language.

Examples

Here is the example of “Google Merchant” compatible XML feed:

XML header

<!--?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?-->

	
		
		http://www.example.com 
		A description of your content

XML item

			
			[alg_product_url]
			[alg_product_short_description]
			[alg_product_image_url]
			[alg_product_price]
			new
			[alg_product_sku]

XML footer

Another similar example with CDATA:

XML header

<!--?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?-->

XML item

		
			[alg_product_sku]
			
			[alg_product_short_description cdata="yes"]
			[alg_product_categories cdata="yes"]
			[alg_product_url]
			[alg_product_image_url]
			[alg_product_price]
			new

XML footer

Although plugin is designed to create XML feeds, you can also output it in different formats, e.g. CSV, by setting XML item option to something like this (don’t forget to add a new line symbol at the end):

[alg_product_sku];[alg_product_title];[alg_product_url];[alg_product_price];

With “Product XML Feeds for WooCommerce” plugin you can create XML feeds for any specifications. For example, below you can see settings for a Facebook XML feed. Specifications can be found here and feed debug (validation) tool is here.

XML header

<!--?xml version="1.0"?-->

	
		
		http://www.example.com 
		A description of your content

XML item

		
			[alg_product_id]
			[alg_product_name cdata="yes"]
			[alg_product_short_description cdata="yes"]
			[alg_product_url]
			[alg_product_image_url]
			Example
			new
			in stock
			[alg_product_price] GBP

This is by far the best plugin for making exports. It has many customization options, the customer support is awesome. The plugin is making use of WP cron, so that you don’t have to make custom ones.

And the lifetime license makes it my overal best XML Feed export plugin for Woocommerce!

Works like a charm!
I would like to see the option to sort by the attribute “brand” though.
I.E include only items of following brands.

Also is it possible to add “wholesale price” to items XML?
I.E under 279 is 237.15 ?
In certains feeds to discount % for wholesale is fixxed so just need to add the % somewhere.

We are using this product xml plugin for more than 6 months already for our website https://vitamag.bg/ . The plugin helped us to expand our wholesale business as we facilitated our distributors with the products feed. In short – this is an effective plugin to grow along with your online partners.

Great plugin!
However I would like an option to disable the bottom comment saying:
```


```
I have purchased the lifetime unlimited license so I think I did my best for supporting you.
I know this is just a comment and does not matter for parsers, but it is misleading as the feed is not server from wpfactory.com server.
Besides this it is a really useful tool with good options to create just about any kind of feeds.
Thank you!
🙂

  Hi Endre,
  
  Thanks for the feedback, we listened 🙂
  
  You have now an option to remove that part from the XML, please upgrade to 1.9.4 to have that option.
  
  Sorry for any convenience made, very thankful for the feedback.

The best plugin for creating xml feeds… Basically you can build whatever you want for any platform…It’s for simple and also experienced users with a very good documentation…Just read it and you can build everything. The support is awsome and very quick.

Purchased this plugin a while ago and I want to share with the rest of the community that it makes its purpose. It is very easy to generate different feeds for different platforms using all sorts of shortcode combinations. The only thing I would like to see is the option of saving the feed in another format like .txt, beside this everything is good.

  Thanks Florin for the great feedback, and actually your request is on our roadmap for the plugin, expect it to be available soon.

Great plugin. It does the job and it is very easy to customize it. Also too cheap! (I ‘m developing websites/eshops and the full version with lifetime support/updates is very cheap).

It supports wpml, it exports as many xml files as you want. It supports many currencies. It works with shortcodes that are so easy to understand and to put them in place.
I have bought it yesterday and today I am ready to give the final xml to my client!

If you need some specific product property to be outputted in XML feed and it's not covered by one of plugin's shortcodes, you can add your own custom shortcodes to be used in plugin's XML templates. For example, if you need to output product's shipping price for "Flat rate" method, based on product's shipping class, you could add something like this to your (child) theme's functions.php file:

add_shortcode( 'my_alg_product_shipping_cost_flat_rate', 'my_alg_product_shipping_cost_flat_rate' );
if ( ! function_exists( 'my_alg_product_shipping_cost_flat_rate' ) ) {
    /*
     * my_alg_product_shipping_cost_flat_rate.
     */
    function my_alg_product_shipping_cost_flat_rate( $atts, $content = '' ) {
        if ( isset( $atts['shipping_instance_id'] ) ) {
            global $product;
            if ( $product ) {
                $shipping_class       = $product->get_shipping_class();
                $shipping_class_term  = get_term_by( 'slug', $shipping_class, 'product_shipping_class' );
                $shipping_method      = new WC_Shipping_Flat_Rate( $atts['shipping_instance_id'] );
                $shipping_class_cost  = $shipping_class_term && $shipping_class_term->term_id ?
                    $shipping_method->get_option( 'class_cost_' . $shipping_class_term->term_id, $shipping_method->get_option( 'class_cost_' . $shipping_class, '' ) ) :
                    $shipping_method->get_option( 'no_class_cost', '' );
                return $shipping_class_cost;
            }
        }
        return '';
    }
}

And then use [my_alg_product_shipping_cost_flat_rate] shortcode in plugin's settings (i.e. in "XML item" template):

<shipping_price_flat_rate_zone_X>[my_alg_product_shipping_cost_flat_rate shipping_instance_id="28"]</shipping_price_flat_rate_zone_X>
