About the Extension

Your Meta catalog powers Instagram Shopping, Facebook Shops and dynamic catalog ads. But when images are missing, prices are wrong or variants are grouped incorrectly, Meta rejects your products, often without you noticing in your shop. And your ad budget goes into ads with outdated data.

Your Shopware catalog on Meta, complete and always up to date

"InstaShopping" automatically creates a product feed per sales channel and language that Meta fetches as a scheduled feed. Variants, properties, strike-through and base prices, images by media tag and dynamic product groups are included.

New from version 4.1 (Shopware 6.7):

"Meta" tab on every product: your own title, description, main image, Google product category and custom labels for your ads.
Feed overview with quality check: shows after every run which products Meta would reject and why. One click takes you straight to the product.
Feeds for Pinterest and TikTok and separate feeds per currency.
Feed templates: adjust the columns and content of every feed yourself.
Background export every 6, 12 or 24 hours, even for large catalogs.

Your benefits with InstaShopping:

Fewer rejections (from 4.1): The quality check finds missing images, brands, GTINs and overlong texts before Meta flags them.
Full control per product (from 4.1): Maintain title, description, image, category and custom labels right on the product, variants inherit the values.
Better ads: Use custom labels and item group IDs to filter your catalog ads by season, margin or bestsellers.
Runs on its own: The feed updates automatically, from 4.1 in the background on your schedule and with S3 storage.

Why your customers will love InstaShopping:

Correct prices: They see the same prices in their currency on Instagram and Facebook as in your shop.
Matching variants: Size and color are right, variants appear as one product with options.
Current availability: Hide sold-out items so nobody clicks on a product that isn't there.
Great presentation: You pick the image that works best on Instagram, not just the shop cover.

In use for years, with more than 20 five-star reviews in the Shopware 5 and 6 stores. Even with Social Shopping from Shopware Rise the app pays off: you get base prices, images by media tag, dynamic product groups and, from 4.1, per-product control and a quality check on top. Try InstaShopping free for a month. Your catalog on Meta: complete, correct and automatic.

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.
