详情介绍:

Many independent record shops have hundreds or thousands of records online without a cover, or with the same placeholder image on every product. Vinilogy Covers finds those products, looks each record up in the Vinilogy catalogue and downloads its cover from Cover Art Archive. It needs a free Vinilogy key, which you request by email (see "Installation"), and it talks to the services listed under "External services". Nothing changes in your shop until you say so: How records are identified, from most to least reliable:
  1. Barcode (EAN/UPC), read from the usual barcode fields or from the SKU when it is a valid barcode: the cover of that very edition.
  2. Artist and title, read from product attributes or from the product name. Shop habits such as "SURNAME, NAME", "(LP, 180g)", "– COLOURED VINYL" or used-condition notes in the name ("VG+") are cleaned up before searching.
Proposals with a confidence of 85 or more come pre-selected. In our test with 100 records from one shop, every pre-selected proposal was correct; always review the rest. Optional Discogs fallback. When Cover Art Archive has no image, the plugin can also use the Discogs cover from the Vinilogy catalogue. It is off by default: Discogs images are uploaded by its users and its terms restrict reusing them on other sites, so each shop decides. Every downloaded image records its source. Vinilogy is a free comparison site for vinyl records sold by independent shops in Spain: https://www.vinilogy.com

安装:

  1. Install and activate the plugin (WooCommerce must be active).
  2. Request a free key by emailing hola@vinilogy.com.
  3. Open WooCommerce → Album covers, expand "Settings" at the bottom of the screen and paste the key.
  4. Click "Find products without a cover" and review the proposals.

屏幕截图:

  • Covers already set: any of them can be undone.
  • Settings: Vinilogy key, placeholder detection and the optional Discogs fallback (off by default).

常见问题:

Will it change my products without asking?

No. Covers are only downloaded to the media library; a product changes only when you approve its cover, and you can undo it.

What counts as "without a cover"?

Products with no image, and products whose image is shared by many products (5 or more by default, adjustable), which is what a placeholder looks like. Products that already have their own cover are never touched, and if you set one by hand while a proposal is waiting, the proposal is dropped.

Does it cost anything?

No. The key is free and the plugin is free. Record shops are who Vinilogy is for.

Where do the covers go before I approve them?

To your media library, attached to the product but not used as its image. If you discard a proposal, that file is deleted.

What does the confidence number mean?

How sure the match is, from 0 to 100. Hover over it to see why: a barcode match of the exact edition scores highest; a match by artist and title scores lower when several albums or artists share that name. Proposals at 85 or more come pre-selected.

What if a cover is wrong?

Discard it, or undo it after approving: the product goes back to the image it had. You can always set your own image in the product editor, as usual.

Does it work with variable products?

It sets the cover of the parent product, like any other product. Variations keep their own images.

My SKUs are not barcodes. Does it still work?

Yes: the record is then identified by artist and title. A SKU is only treated as a barcode when it is a valid EAN/UPC (8, 12, 13 or 14 digits with a correct check digit).

The search does not advance when I close the page

Covers are fetched in the background by WordPress scheduled tasks. If your host has them disabled (DISABLE_WP_CRON), keep the Album covers screen open until the search finishes, or run wp vinicov procesar.

A product says "Not found". What now?

Either Vinilogy does not have that record, or it has no cover image. Check that the product name has the artist and the title, or add a barcode, and use "Search again" at the bottom of the screen.

Who owns the covers?

Their labels and artists. Record shops use them to show the album they sell. Cover Art Archive collects them for that kind of use; check its terms and, if you turn on the Discogs fallback, Discogs' terms.

What happens when I delete the plugin?

Its settings, queue and pending downloads are removed. Covers you already approved stay on your products; each image keeps a note of where it came from (Cover Art Archive or Discogs) in its custom fields, so you can find and remove them later if you ever need to.

Does it work from the command line?

Yes, with WP-CLI: wp vinicov buscar (queue products without a cover), wp vinicov procesar (fetch covers), wp vinicov ok --confianza=85 (approve all with that confidence or more), wp vinicov estado (counts by state).

How do I report a security issue?

Write to hola@vinilogy.com. Please do not open a public issue.
