Extendability

Please note that fields, which are not exported by default, can be adapted by an agency, using the Shopware 6 extension plugin.

Details

Products are only exported, when Shopware would show them on a search or category result page. The plugin internally uses constraints by Shopware, which restricts all products from being exported, if they are not available by Shopware.

The following criteria must be met:

All issues related to the export, are logged inside of the plugin log file, which can be found in

<shopware-root>/var/log/findologic_finsearch_<environment>-<date-time>.log

When a product is missing in the export, you can also use the export parameter productId, which will contain all reasons, why the specific product couldn't be exported.

Example: https://your-shop.com/findologic?shopkey=your-shopkey&productId=missing-product-id

The id of the item is the Shopware UUID of the product. This UUID is only visible in the URL, when editing products in the admin interface.

Variants

Terminology:

Variant Export:

Variants can either be exported as one main product combining all information or as separate products.

  1. One main product:

    • Shopware default with configured main variant
    • Shopware default with "Display single product" -> "Main product"
    • Shopware default with "Expand property values in product listings" but without selected values
    • Main-/Parent product
    • Cheapest variant
  2. Separate products (Shopware default only):

    • "Expand property values in product listings" with a selected value (e.g. Colour):
      • Separate products for each colour. Each product contains the information of the other variants with the same colour.
    • "Expand property values in product listings" with all values:
      • Separate products each variant.
    • Specifically for plugin v5:
      • "Use XML variants logic" must be activated in the plugin configuration so that it is exported correctly.
      • Instead of one product with all information, all variants are exported as tag.
      • The variants will be recognized as variants within our search. See here
      • The most relevant variant will be shown in the search result. (e.g. red colored shirts, when filtering for red)
