BaseLinker Variant & Attribute Sync

What does the plugin do?

• Every X minutes (default: 1, configurable in settings), the plugin scans your BaseLinker inventory and looks for products marked with the “Update” flag (extra_field_4876).
• Updates parent attributes: reads “Color” and “Size” features from BaseLinker and sets them as taxonomies (pa_color, pa_size) in WooCommerce.
• Creates or updates variants: using SKU, it imports price, stock, and the correct attribute values.
• Removes outdated variants: any variation that no longer exists in BaseLinker is automatically deleted from WooCommerce.
• Resets the flag in BaseLinker after successful synchronization to avoid duplicate processing.

Key Benefits

• Fully automated: set the flag once and the plugin takes care of everything.
• Flexible cron interval: define how often sync runs – every few minutes or more.
• Smart parsing: variant names like “Red L” or “Navy Blue XL” are correctly parsed into color and size, even with multiple-word names.
• Simple setup: WordPress settings panel with fields for API token, warehouse ID, and flag identifier.
• Detailed logging: all actions and possible errors are stored in /wp-content/blvs-log.log.
