Hi Charlie,

Welcome to 5 Star. I'll poke Teli to be sure she sees this thread as she can give you the most help probably.

Regarding how often to update. Partly depends on the merchant and how often their stock and/or pricing changes. Even if you don't show prices you want to keep up to date so you don't send a visitor to a product page that's out of stock or re-directs to the homepage.

Ideally you should try to set up a chron job to auto update for you so you don't have to do it manually. I would think you would want to update at least weekly if you do it manually but if it's automatic maybe daily depending on merchant???

I'm not sure about this advice because I don't get as many datafeed questions lately so have not kept up with things as much as I used to on this front.
