# Product Sync Continually Syncing

 * Hi,
 * I am trying to sync my products from Facebook for WooCommerce. The sync starts
   and states the number of items syncing, but this number does not go down and 
   the sync does not stop. I left it overnight and no product items were in my Facebook
   catalog and under the sync tab in the app, it still stated the same amount of
   items were syncing over to Facebook. I have tried disconnecting the app and deleting
   it, but when I re-install it, the sync is in exactly the same state that I left
   it (Continuous sync stating the same amount of items to sync). Hope this makes
   sense. Can anybody help?

 * Hi [@arn144](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arn144/)!
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * Can you try clearing out your Facebook Metadata and product data then check again?
   We’ve got a guide on that here so you can do it in bulk: [https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/facebook-for-woocommerce/facebook-for-woocommerce-delete-or-reset-all-facebook-products/](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/facebook-for-woocommerce/facebook-for-woocommerce-delete-or-reset-all-facebook-products/)
 * Additionally It will be great if you could share your current System Status Report.
   You can get it by navigating to the `WooCommerce / Status` section of your site.
   Once there, click on the `Get system report` button and then copy it by clicking
   on the `Copy for support` button. Then paste it here in a comment.
 * Looking forward to hearing from you!

 * Thanks for that. Just a quick question I am quite new to WordPress so where about
   do I insert the snippet code?
 * Here is the system report as requested. Thanks for your help.

 * Hi,
 * I have tried to execute the snippets you directed me to using the code snippets
   app. However, this has had no effect whatsoever and the sync continues, but it
   is syncing with nothing as the connection to facebook has been removed. Please
   help as I would really like to connect my woocommerce account to facebook asap.
 * Thanks,
 * Andrew

 * Hi [@arn144](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arn144/)
 * To reset the plugin back to a fresh install, removing the existing settings, 
   you can do so by installing the following small plugin we’ve created.
 * [https://cloud.skyver.ge/X6uOEyG9](https://cloud.skyver.ge/X6uOEyG9)
 * This will add a new tool available at WooCommerce > Status > Tools called “Reset
   Facebook for WooCommerce settings“. Click the Reset Settings button here, and
   then navigate back to the Facebook for WooCommerce plugin settings screen to 
   try connecting again.
 * Try this, then running the snippets from before to see if this removes any added
   products to Facebook and allows you to resync.

 * Hi John,
 * Thanks for your reply. I have tried what you have suggested above, but I have
   not had any success in stopping the sync. Is there anything else I can try?
 * Thanks,

 * 256 Mb memory for PHP-FPM is not enough for this hungry plugin. I had to eventually
   assign 2G for it to work. This was confirmed through pure trial and error by 
   constantly upping the mem limit until we found the point where it didn’t break.

 * [@arn144](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arn144/)
 * What [@mitchellk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mitchellk/) is suggesting
   is what I would recommend as well. I see your site currently has WP Memory Limit:
   256 MB.
 * The site’s PHP memory_limit could be causing the time out.
    What the limit should
   be depends on how much else a site has going on. In a fresh install of WP, WC,
   and FBW, 128mb was good enough. Once you start adding other memory-intensive 
   extensions (SEO packs, page builders, activity monitors, etc), that changes.
 * We generally recommend a limit of at least 512MB to ensure that everything is
   covered, though situations could demand more.

 * 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.
