 * Hi, there can you help us with our staging site.

    “WooCommerce Square: It looks like your site does not
   support background processing, which means large numbers of products may not 
   sync successfully with Square. Read more here on how to resolve this.”

 * Hi [@tinzion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tinzion/),
 * With this error:
 * > WooCommerce Square: It looks like your site does not support background processing,
   > which means large numbers of products may not sync successfully with Square
 * You can run a check to see if the site does do background processing by going
   to WooCommerce > Status > Tools and clicking the Tool for [Background Processing Test](https://d.pr/i/Fn4ctE).
   If it comes back with a failure notice, connect with the Host (FlyWheel) and 
   let them know – they will be able to assist in making sure it is on.
 * Background processing is required for Square to process syncing with products,
   so it is imperative to have that turned on/active for the server/site.

 * We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved–
   if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
