Feed Health Monitor for WooCommerce

Find Product Feed Issues Before They Become Problems Feed Health Monitor for WooCommerce scans your WooCommerce catalog for product data issues that can cause products to be rejected, limited, or excluded from product feeds. It helps you identify missing, incomplete, or potentially problematic product information before it affects your product listings on platforms such as Google Shopping. What does it check? The plugin analyzes your WooCommerce products for common feed-related data problems, including:

• Missing product titles
• Missing product descriptions
• Missing product images
• Missing prices
• Missing stock information
• Missing product identifiers
• Missing or incomplete attributes
• Product data that may cause feed validation problems
• Other catalog issues that can affect product feeds

Continuous Catalog Monitoring & Workflow (New in 1.3.0) Version 1.3.0 turns Feed Health Monitor into a proactive monitoring tool that runs in the background:

• WP-Cron Scheduled Scans: Automatically scan your catalog on a Daily or Weekly cadence using WordPress native cron scheduling without overloading server resources.
• Unified Single-Engine Scanning: Scheduled scans run the exact same battle-tested batch validator as manual scans, preventing discrepancy and duplicate logic.
• Scan History Archive: Track every completed scan with date, type (Manual vs. Scheduled), product count, healthy items, severity counts, and health score. Includes clean WordPress admin pagination.
• Differential Comparison (New vs. Fixed): Compares each completed scan with the immediately previous scan to identify newly introduced problems (NEW badge) and resolved issues (FIXED tab) with zero database overhead.
• Live Monitoring Dashboard: Real-time monitoring card displaying current status (Active/Disabled), last scan date, next scan date, frequency, current score, score change diff, and counts of new/fixed issues, with quick [Scan Now] and [Monitoring Settings] buttons.
• Admin Email Alerts: Notifies store administrators automatically if new critical errors emerge or if catalog health score drops past a configurable threshold.
• Data Retention Management: Configurable automatic pruning of historical scan logs (7, 30, or 90 days).

Advanced Data Quality Validation Version 1.2.0 introduced deep qualitative checks across your catalog to catch problematic content:

• Price Validation: Flags invalid, zero, or negative prices, and alerts when sale prices exceed regular prices.
• Title Quality: Identifies suspiciously short or long titles and flags promotional text (e.g. "FREE SHIPPING", "SALE").
• Description Quality: Flags extremely thin product descriptions.
• Image Validation: Checks for valid image URLs and enforces minimum/recommended image dimensions (e.g. 250x250 minimum, 800x800 recommended).
• GTIN Validation: Enforces strict GTIN formatting, lengths, and Modulus-10 checksum validation.
• Variable Products: Inspects all active variations securely, rolling up grouped errors efficiently without spamming issues.

Why use Feed Health Monitor? Instead of discovering product problems after your products have been rejected by a shopping platform, scan your catalog directly from WordPress and identify issues that need attention. Built for WooCommerce Feed Health Monitor works directly with your WooCommerce product catalog and provides a simple way to review product data health from your WordPress dashboard. Google Shopping & Product Feeds Product feed platforms depend on accurate and complete product information. Small catalog issues can result in products being rejected or excluded. Feed Health Monitor helps you find potential problems before they become feed issues. No Feed Generation Required This plugin does not generate product feeds. It focuses specifically on checking the health of your WooCommerce product data so you can identify problems before sending your catalog to external feed platforms. Who is it for? Feed Health Monitor is useful for:

• WooCommerce store owners
• Ecommerce managers
• SEO specialists
• Google Shopping advertisers
• Agencies managing WooCommerce stores
• Developers maintaining product catalogs
