Hi Thomas,
I’m currently working on a difficult topic but I will come back to you to see if I can find a solution for your issue.
Hello Thomas,
I found that this is a pretty hard thing to implement and thinking about it was wandering where you would like to use it for as I think it could be a somewhat dangerous option.
Also the _sale_price_start_date and _sale_price_end_date in the Google feed should normally be used in the sale_price_effective_date attribute, so I wonder if it would be of any use if you link it to a specific date like <today>
Could you give me a bit more information about how you wanted to use this option?
Hi Michel,
Yes, I realized that sale_price_effective_date is what I should use instead. Then I ran into another problem: my plugin the dates for example _eur_sale_price_start_date and _eur_sale_price_end_date are stored as a timestamp. I wrote some code that parses the .xml and replaces this with ISO-dates. Do you have any hooks/action that can trigger my code after your feed generation is done?
You could do two things. Use the action hook ‘wppfm_complete_a_feed’ that triggeres when a feed is completed, or maybe even better, use the ‘wppfm_feed_item_value’ filter to change the values wherever you need (see https://gist.github.com/Auke1810/c62bb043926f539f9a99b418c06a3e6e on how to use that filter).
BTW I will change the ‘wppfm_complete_a_feed’ to ‘wppfm_feed_completed’ in the next update as I think it’s a better term.
Excellent! That works perfect, thank you.
Great. Good luck with your feeds!
