Documentation
LineSW Feed Checker 1.3.5 quick start.
Inspect a supplier CSV, XML or JSON feed before changing a WooCommerce catalog. The public Free release performs diagnostics and exports reports without writing products.
0 writes
Read-only Free workflow
Preview, readiness diagnostics, catalog comparison and exports remain read-only in public version 1.3.5.
Installation
Install and run the first preview
2. Run the check
- Select CSV, XML or JSON input and the matching profile.
- Review detected fields before catalog comparison.
- Check warnings for identifiers, prices, images and status values.
- Export a dry-run report for review or support.
Public limits
What one Free 1.3.5 run processes
200 parsed items
A run parses at most 200 feed items with a 25-second timeout and up to three redirects.
100 catalog comparisons
The first 100 parsed items can be compared with the WooCommerce catalog.
Local history
The plugin stores 20 runs, shows the latest 10 in the interface and keeps up to 200 learning-log entries.
Matching and safety
Use stable identifiers and review risky values
Preferred matching
Use SKU first, then EAN or a stable supplier code. Product names are not reliable primary identifiers.
Images
Public 1.3.5 can incorrectly report a missing image for the standard WooCommerce CSV Images field. Verify the preview and report.
Restricted products
Values such as EPRODUKT=NO and missing images should be treated as review signals. The Free release reports them but does not change product status.
Outputs
Reports for review, support and implementation planning
Dry-run CSV
Review item-level matching and expected actions without catalog writes.
Problems CSV and HTML
Share a readable summary of missing fields, warnings and feed readiness after removing sensitive data.
Import-plan JSON
Inspect a machine-readable plan whose public Free export keeps write_enabled=false.
Paid automation
Catalog writes belong to a separate paid add-on
Feed Automation 1.8.6 adds controlled scheduled imports, mapping rules, logs, quarantine, recovery and plan-based feed/site limits. Keep Free/Core active and verify the exact plan in checkout before purchase.
