Section 1: Automatic Product Addition

How to Automatically Add Products via Everspring

To effortlessly add products to your Woocommerce store you can utilize Everspring's automatic product addition feature. Follow these steps:

  • Add products to your catalog in Everspring.

  • Within 2 hours, the added products will appear in your Woocommerce store.

  • The following fields are transmitted: images, titles, and descriptions (in the language of your API URL), the recommended retail price (RRP), SKU, and EAN (if available).

  • These fields are only sent once unless configured otherwise in the Plugin Settings.

  • Inventory (and other selected fields) is updated every 2 hours.

  • The product connection is maintained via two fields: SKU and Everspring Imported, which can be found under “Stock” and “Advanced” respectively. Changing these values breaks the connection, and a new product will be created if it remains in your Everspring catalog.

Please Note:The following data is not sent from Everspring:

  • Categories: As a retailer, you define your own category structure based on what fits best in your shop.

  • Variations: You determine how you want to handle product variations (e.g. by height, color, pot size, plant type, or bundled package).

Section 2: Manual Product Addition

How to Manually Add Products to Your Woocommerce Store

For situations where manual control is preferred, you can manually add products to your Woocommerce shop. Here's how:

  • Edit an existing product or create a new one in your Woocommerce shop.

  • Set the Everspring Imported field to yes.

  • Fill in the SKU of the product as it appears in Everspring.

  • Add the product to your catalog in Everspring.
