Correlation of fields between Sales Layer and WooCommerce
Categories Field Mapping
Category Name : With the Sales Layer category name.Category Description : With the Sales Layer category description.Category Image : Images can handle only one size, among all the ones available in Sales Layer. In case of choosing the original one (ORG), that name must avoid using any strange characters (/\%$, etc.) or it could cause errors when it is being processed (that doesn’t happen in other image sizes as Sales Layer renames these with safe characters). Starting with version 2.3:- The existing images will be compared with the new ones and their size, avoiding the use of the md5 for more efficiency in a shorter time.
- Additional product images will be saved on the server but their clippings will be processed by a parallel CRON of ours so that the main catalog data will be generated faster.
