## Beschreibung

You submit your WooCommerce products to Google Shopping. A few days later, some 
are disapproved. The error messages are vague. You don’t know which product has 
which problem, or what to change.

**Merchant Feed Booster Lite** solves that.

It generates a reliable Google Merchant XML feed for your store _and_ audits every
product against 27 of Google Merchant Center’s content policy rules. Each product
gets a health score from 0 to 100, and every failing rule tells you exactly what
the problem is and how to fix it — all inside your WordPress admin, before a single
product reaches Google.

#### How it works

 1. **Set it up once** — enter your feed title, default brand, and Google product category
    in Settings. The plugin adds Brand, GTIN, MPN, and Condition fields to each product
    edit screen.
 2. **Generate your feed** — click Regenerate Feed on the Dashboard. The plugin writes
    a properly formatted Google Merchant XML file to your server. Copy the URL and 
    paste it into Google Merchant Center as a scheduled fetch.
 3. **Run a health scan** — go to Feed Health and scan your catalog. The plugin checks
    every product against 25 policy rules covering titles, images, prices, identifiers,
    and descriptions.
 4. **Fix what’s flagged** — each failing rule shows a severity level (Error, Warning,
    or Notice), a plain-English explanation, and a specific fix hint. Start with the
    lowest-scored products first.
 5. **Let it run** — the feed refreshes automatically on a schedule you choose. Products
    are rescored automatically whenever you edit them.

#### What it checks

**Titles** — Too short or too long, promotional words like FREE or SALE, ALL CAPS,
HTML tags, price mentioned in the title, special characters, repeated words, duplicate
title reused on another product.

**Images** — Missing image, too small for Google’s requirements, unsupported format,
tracking parameters in the URL.

**Prices** — Missing or zero price, sale price set without a regular price, sale
price higher than or equal to the regular price.

**Identifiers** — Invalid GTIN digit count, GTIN that fails the GS1 check digit 
test, brand set but no GTIN or MPN provided, missing brand, duplicate GTIN/MPN reused
across products.

**Descriptions** — Missing description, too short, HTML tags, promotional language.

#### What you get

 * A health score (0–100) and color-coded tier for every product in your store
 * A full breakdown of every failing rule per product with fix hints
 * A live feed preview showing your products exactly as they’ll appear in the XML
 * Automatic feed refresh on a schedule — twice daily, daily, weekly, or a custom
   interval
 * A real reachability check on your feed URL, and a warning if the scheduled refresh
   stops firing
 * A Feed Health column (sortable, filterable) right in your WooCommerce Products
   list
 * A Site Health test so feed problems surface alongside your other WordPress health
   checks
 * CSV export of the full health report for spreadsheet analysis
 * WP-CLI commands for server-side management
 * Developer filters and actions to customise the feed and scoring rules

#### Privacy

This plugin does not collect or transmit any data to third parties, and there is
no tracking or telemetry of any kind. All scoring and feed generation runs on your
own server. The one network request the plugin makes is a same-origin check of your
own feed URL, to confirm it’s reachable before Google tries to fetch it — no data
is sent to any external service.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `merchant-feed-booster-lite-for-woocommerce` folder to `/wp-content/
    plugins/`.
 2. Activate **Merchant Feed Booster Lite for WooCommerce** from the Plugins screen.
 3. WooCommerce must be installed and active.
 4. Go to **Feed Booster  Settings**, configure your feed title and defaults, and save.
 5. Click **Regenerate Feed** on the Dashboard to create the first XML file.
 6. Copy the feed URL and add it to Google Merchant Center under **Settings  Data sources
    Add file**.

## FAQ

### Does this require WooCommerce?

Yes. WooCommerce 6.0 or higher must be installed and active.

### Where is the feed file stored?

At `wp-content/uploads/codesolz-feeds/google-products.xml`. The URL is shown on 
the Dashboard with a one-click copy button.

### How often does the feed refresh?

You choose: twice daily, daily, weekly, or a custom interval in hours. You can also
regenerate it manually at any time from the Dashboard.

### Do I have to scan my products manually every time?

No. Products are rescored automatically when you save changes to them. For a full
catalog rescan, use the Scan button on the Feed Health page — it runs in the background
in batches of 50, so it never times out on large stores.

### What does the health score mean?

It tells you how well a product meets Google’s content requirements. A score of 
85–100 means the product is in good shape. Below 50 means there are issues that 
are likely to cause disapprovals or low impressions. The Feed Health page shows 
exactly which rules are failing.

### Is it compatible with WooCommerce HPOS?

Yes. The plugin only reads and writes product data, never orders. Full HPOS compatibility
is declared.

### Can I control which products go into the feed?

Yes, via the `cs_mfb_should_include_product` filter hook. You can also toggle out-
of-stock products on or off in Settings.

### Does this plugin send any data externally?

No. Everything runs on your server, and there’s no tracking or telemetry. The plugin
does make one same-origin HTTP request — a self-check of your own feed URL to confirm
it’s reachable — but no data leaves your site to any third party.
