README

A WordPress plugin that automatically updates WooCommerce product prices from the Prycing platform with support for High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS).

Description

Prycing allows you to easily synchronize your WooCommerce product prices with the Prycing software platform. The plugin fetches data from your Prycing account and updates your product prices automatically, either on a schedule or manually when needed.

Features

• Price Synchronization: Import product prices from Prycing platform
• Regular & Sale Prices: Support for both regular prices and sale prices
• Sale Date Ranges: Set sale start and end dates automatically
• Flexible Scheduling: Update prices from every minute to weekly
• Product Matching: Match products using EAN/barcode or SKU
• WooCommerce HPOS Compatible: Works with High-Performance Order Storage
• Performance Optimized: Uses WP_Query instead of direct database queries
• Detailed Logging: Track all updates and errors in WooCommerce logs
• Simple UI: Clean and intuitive admin interface

Installation

From GitHub:

1. Download the latest release
2. Upload the entire prycing directory to /wp-content/plugins/
3. Activate through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress

Using Composer:

composer require prycing/woocommerce-plugin

Configuration

1. Go to WooCommerce → Prycing in your WordPress admin
2. Enter the URL of your Prycing feed
3. Choose your preferred update frequency
4. Save settings

Product Matching Logic

The plugin matches products in the following order:

1. First checks if the EAN is stored as a product SKU
2. Then checks various meta fields commonly used for storing EANs/barcodes:
   • _ean
   • _barcode
   • ean
   • barcode

Update Frequencies

Choose from the following update frequencies:

• Every 30 Seconds: For near real-time pricing (use with caution - high server load)
• Every Minute: For very frequent price updates
• Every 5 Minutes: Good balance for regular updates
• Every 10 Minutes: Moderate update frequency
• Every 30 Minutes: Regular updates with minimal server impact
• Hourly: Updates once per hour
• Twice Daily: Updates twice per day
• Daily: Updates once per day (default)
• Weekly: Updates once per week

Note: Using very frequent updates (30 seconds, 1 minute, or 5 minutes) can significantly impact server performance and is recommended only for development environments or small product catalogs. For production sites with many products, consider using longer intervals.
