Has problem with All Import data feed
by borgcollective·3 years ago·5 replies
Plugin has problem with cloaking affiliate links when data feed imported through All Import plugin into woocommerce. All old product imports finished before cloaking addon installation does fine and when clickon button it leads you where it should. However , when cloaking addon is active while importing products through data feed ,addon just sets cloaking link instead affiliate link and on click doesn’t lead anywhere… And if you disable addon , those cloaking links stay permanently on product unless you rerun your product feed again so it can update aff links. Other products which are imported before plugin activation and they were cloaked with new permalink after plugin deactivation returns original url.
Although , if you run WP All Import manually addon works flawlessly. It seams that only has problem with feeds scheduled with Cron jobs

Will SEO improve when I disable external links?
The plugin works the best!
by ilyapokrov·5 years ago
Do not pay attention to the fact that the plugin has few active installations at the moment.
It is truly the best in its segment. There is no need to configure anything – I activated the plugin and the problem is solved.
Even though 5 stars is the maximum rating, I will rate it 10 stars!
Highly recommend!
Great plugin
