Action Buttons
Below the settings, you’ll find two buttons for saving settings and managing the Chrome extension:
The Product settings page allows you to configure how imported Temu products will be managed and displayed in your WooCommerce store. These options ensure products are imported with the correct status, attributes, visibility, and stock settings.
The Product Price settings page allows you to configure exchange rates and pricing rules for imported Temu products, ensuring accurate pricing in your WooCommerce store.
Include or Exclude video during product importation. Manage how product videos are imported and displayed on your store
Manage how product reviews are imported during product importation. You can set the number of reviews, filter by rating, skip empty ones, and define their status and verification in WooCommerce.
After enabling and setting up, reviews are imported along with other product details and you can see it in Reviews tab – Import List.
Automatically remove attribute: When splitting a product by a specific attribute in the Variations tab in Import List, remove that attribute of split product. E.g. You split product by Color, and you have 2 products in different colors – Black and Burgundy – each has full 4 sizes. The “Color” attribute will be removed in the 2 new products.
Customize how products are updated when overriding existing ones.
Stay up to date with product data from Temu
Manage how order information from WooCommerce is prepared and matched for successful order placement on Temu during the fulfillment process.
Note:
This is necessary because Temu’s checkout fields change depending on the country. Some fields in Temu require selecting from predefined dropdown options (such as states or provinces). In those cases, the matching WooCommerce field should contain values that correspond exactly to Temu’s expected options.
