Description

Our gold certified App now also for Shopware 6. Fancier and more powerful!

The App generates a CSV data feed via scheduled Task which can be used to create products in a Facebook catalog and thus for Instagramm.

The generated CSV file contains all fields Facebook requires. These are in detail:

id
gtin
title
description
availability
condition
price
sale_price
shipping_weight
link
image_link
brand
product_type
additional_image_link
item_group_id
custom_label_0
inventory
size
color
gender
age_group
pattern
material
google_product_category

Please ensure that the product images taken are present at least in the resolution 600px x 600px. Nevertheless, Facebook imports images with a lower resolution but provides them with a corresponding hint. Variants can be exported on request.

Please take a look at the documentation and installation instructions if there are problems creating the CSV file.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the field "google_product_category" missing in my CSV file? You must complete at least one of the "Product Category Golbal (Optional)" or "Google Product Category (Product Custom Field)" fields to use "google_product_category" when creating the CSV file. For the type of content allocation, please read the help text in the plugin settings.
The details about the Google Product Category are maintained in my shop at article level. How do I get this data into the CSV file? The prerequisite for this is that the information for the article is maintained in the article via the regular custom field administration. If this is the case, proceed as follows: 1. Go to an article in the backend and see what the field is called, where the Google category is maintained. 2. Switch to the custom field management (Settings -> Systems > Custom Fields) 3. Copy the technical name of the custom field 4. Switch to InstaShopping's plugin settings and enter this column name in the "Google Product Category (Product Custom Field)" box. 5. Save the changes and generate the CSV file.
I activated and configured the App but it does not generate a CSV file. What's wrong? Probably it comes to a 404 (page not found) error. You should see this error in the Browser Developer Tools (Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + i) in the Network tab. If you see the above 404 error, please empty the shop cache unter Settings > System > Caches & Indexes and try the feeder creation again. The CSV file should now be generated without errors.

Changelog

Version 2.0.0

Add compatibility for Shopware 6.6.
The "Create data feed now" button now shows a loading animation while the feed is being created.

Version 1.9.4

The "Create data feed now" button now shows a loading animation while the feed is being created.

Version 1.9.3

Establish compatibility with Shopware Markets. Up to now, there have been errors when creating the feed.

Version 1.9.2

Establishing compatibility with the Custom Products Plugin. In previous versions, the feed could not be created once the Custom Products plugin was installed.

Version 1.9.1

Extended prices have not yet been taken into account. Version 1.9.1 fixes this fact.

Version 1.9.0

Compatibility for Shopware 6.5

Version 1.8.0

Extension of the configuration by the selection of a dynamic product group as the source for the products of the export. Products can be specified better this way. In addition, it is now possible to define the main image of the article using a tag. If a different main image is to be used in the feed than in the shop, these images can be tagged and this can be selected in the configuration. Note: Tag management was only introduced with Shopware version 6.4.12.0!

Version 1.7.2

In some cases, the defined URL parameter was not appended to the product link. This version fixes this bug.

Version 1.7.1

PHP 8 support (sale_price was displayed as 0 EUR in the feed even if no sale price was defined)

Version 1.7.0

Extension of the configuration. It is now possible to use formatted description texts. After activating the option "Use rich text description", the additional field "rich_text_description" will be included in the feed. Furthermore, a parameter can be defined which is appended to the product url. In this way, visits from Instagram/Facebook can be clearly tracked.

Version 1.6.2

Performance/Memory Optimizations. If a lot of product variants are used in the shop, memory limit errors could occur in some cases.

Version 1.6.1

Bugfix: Feed could not be created if items without a manufacturer were included. This version fixes the problem

Version 1.6.0

Optimizations for expandability/customization of the feed through our InstaShopping Modifier Plugin or your own plugins

Version 1.5.2

Compatibility with Shopware 6.4.11 established. Create Datafeed button now visible again

Version 1.5.1

Move the InstaShoppingProductsLineItemBeforeEvent event call AFTER inserting the properties. ATTENTION: If you use the InstaShoppingProductsLineItemBeforeEvent event, you may have to adjust your logic slightly.

Version 1.5.0

Opening the app for third-party plugins using various events to influence the data before it is displayed in the data feed.

Version 1.4.2

The field material was not activated due to an error in the program logic. This update fixes the bug.

Version 1.4.1

In some cases there were problems with determining the field values of variants. If the inheritance was deactivated for some fields of the variant, the fallback to the other fields of the main product no longer worked. This update addresses this issue.

Version 1.4.0

Extension of the feed to include the origin_country field to control the country of origin

Version 1.3.3

In some cases it can happen that the SEO Url of a product cannot be determined correctly. In this case, a fallback URL is controlled according to the pattern https: // URL / detail / PRODUCT ID

Version 1.3.2

Replacement of html entities (ä &zslig; ...) when exporting for correct display on Facebook. HTML entities may be transmitted with the connection to a WaWi and thus passed on to Facebook.

Version 1.3.1

Bugfix: Products without a category led to an error during export

Version 1.3.0

Performance optimizations as well as correction of the sales channel dependent control of the products. Adjustments for Shopware 6.4: Generate data feed Button during configuration was no longer displayed. This is now in the basic settings

Version 1.2.4

Addition of the missing reference quantity of the basic price when the option "Append basic price details to the product name" is active

Version 1.2.3

Bugfix for variants: Some of these were not exported if they were not explicitly activated. Likewise, the product images of the variants were not taken into account if images were set for the variants. Same game with the product names and descriptions of the variants. All that has now been resolved.

Version 1.2.2

Available quantity is now controlled with 100 instead of 0 if the option "fix stock" was selected to prevent display problems on Facebook.

Version 1.2.1

Inactive products are now excluded from the feed.

Version 1.2.0

Extension of the configuration for appending the basic price information to the product name

Version 1.1.3

When the variant export is active, the parent products are no longer included in the feed, as this is superfluous on the one hand and incorrect pricing can also result on the other.

Version 1.1.2

Correction of help texts in the plugin configuration

Version 1.1.1

Unfortunately, an error crept in with the last update that caused problems during export. This error has been corrected in this version.

Version 1.1.0

Extension of the configuration to exclude articles of certain categories as well as articles for which a definable additional field is defined. In addition, it can now be determined that the price of the basic unit is controlled for containers with a base and reference price. Example: Package price € 20 (basic unit 1, content 2). If YES, € 10 will be taxed in the feed. If NO € 20.
