General Site Settings & Sync Dashboard
This guide provides an overview of the main administrative dashboard for the EDGE Store plugin, which is the central place for managing data synchronization.
Accessing the Sync Dashboard
You can find the dashboard in the main WordPress admin menu:
- Log in to your WordPress admin area.
- In the left-hand menu, click on “EDGE Sync Dashboard”.
This will take you to the main control panel for the plugin.
Sync Actions
The “Sync Actions” section contains a series of buttons that allow you to manually trigger the various data synchronization processes. This is useful for pulling in new data immediately without waiting for the next scheduled task.
(Note: I will use a placeholder URL for the image. The final document will need to have the correct image path.)
Available Actions:
- Sync Price Tiers: Updates the pricing rules for different customer roles based on the pricelists in Zoho.
- Sync Categories: Syncs product categories.
- Sync Products: This is the main product sync. It pulls all sellable products from Zoho, creates new products in WooCommerce if they don’t exist, and updates existing ones.
- Sync Accounts: Syncs customer data between WordPress, Zoho, and Xero.
- Sync Images: Triggers a process to import product images.
- Sync Stock: Updates stock levels (though for many print-on-demand products, stock is effectively infinite).
- Refresh Pricelists: Forces a refresh of the Zoho pricelist data, which is used to define user roles.
Queue Management
The dashboard also includes tools for managing the background task queue.
- Cancel All Tasks: This will stop all synchronization tasks that are currently running or waiting in the queue. This is useful if a sync has been started by mistake or is stuck.
- Refresh Queue Status: This updates the status display to show the current state of any active or scheduled tasks.
