Automating WordPress Supplier Feeds: Cron Scheduling & FTP Sync Guide

Manually downloading supplier spreadsheets and updating WooCommerce prices and stock counts is a massive waste of developer and store-manager time.

With WP Import Export Pro, you can automate your entire catalog update cycle using recurring Cron schedules and direct FTP/SFTP or remote URL feed listeners.

1. Setting Up Remote Supplier Connections

Connect securely to supplier endpoints over FTP or SFTP, authenticating with SSH keys or credentials.

2. Configuring Automatic Hourly Sync

Set a background cron schedule that runs every hour at 15 minutes past the hour. WP Import Export Pro downloads the new file, compares SKUs, and updates only changed fields.
