Setting up product feeds from connectcommerce - where to start?

whitebark · 03-18-2009, 07:49 PM

Hi

I need some help. I've only ever used creatives from connectcommerce but I want to start using the product feeds. How do I go about this?

I can see which advertisers have feeds I can use and that I need to grant them ftp access - I can muddle through all that, but then what? How do I actually display that feed on my websites? I would prefer to use the existing layout than create a new one to show the feed.

And the lazy-butt in me has to ask - is there a wordpress plugin for this!

Different merchants' datafeeds are often different in formats - I'm guessing you won't find a generic WP plugin though there may be some for specific merchants.

If you're a coder, there's free code on some of the affiliate forums - you'd need to modify it for your feed(s). There are also things like webmerge.

Sent you a PM also ...
