WPSSO Google Merchant Feeds XML

Google Merchant Feed XMLs for WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, and Custom Product Pages.

E-Commerce Plugin Not Required:

A supported e-commerce plugin, like WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads, is suggested but not required — the WPSSO Google Merchant Feed XML add-on also retrieves custom product information entered in the Document SSO metabox when editing a product page.

Complete WooCommerce Support:

WooCommerce product variations, attributes, meta data, and custom fields are all fully supported.

No Add-on Settings to Configure:

The WPSSO Google Merchant Feed XML add-on automatically retrieves all available product information in the language (aka locale) requested.

Automatic Multilingual Support:

The Google merchant product feed XMLs are automatically created in your site's language(s) from Polylang, WPML, or the installed WordPress languages.

After activating the WPSSO Google Merchant Feed XML add-on, see the SSO > Google Merchant settings page for your feed URLs.
