Product XML Feed for WooCommerce and EDD

The free plugin can publish an XML product feed for WooCommerce products and EDD downloads. Paid commerce APIs add interaction beyond that feed.

Configure and inspect

1. Open citelayer® → Product Feed and review enabled output, schedule and cache settings.
2. Enable only the catalog data intended to be public.
3. Open /product-feed.xml and confirm it returns XML, not a redirect or HTML page.
4. Compare a simple item and a variable product/download with the visible store.

Supported catalog data

The free feed includes product identifiers, title, description, URL, pricing and supported product metadata. WooCommerce visibility settings exclude hidden products. EDD output handles simple and variable-priced downloads and works without WooCommerce installed.

Refresh and diagnose

Item updates invalidate relevant caches, with scheduled regeneration available. Verify the output after a real product change. If generation fails, inspect logs and plugin versions; avoid assuming a saved feed schedule means a fresh file was served.

Feed versus commerce API

An XML feed is published catalog data. It is not automatic enrollment in Merchant Center, an AI marketplace or an autonomous shopping integration. The paid commerce capabilities are a separate surface with their own auth and checkout boundaries.

Next step

Continue with the quick start checklist, or check the common questions. For a reproducible problem, send the plugin versions, affected URL, expected result and actual response through Support. Do not include passwords, license keys or customer details.
