Frequently Asked Questions
General Questions
How many products can I add to 1 store?You can add up to 100,000 products per store.
We have 3 different plans. Depending on the plan, you can create 1 store, 5 stores or an unlimited amount of stores.
A store consists of one shop in the Factory and one installation of the Datafeedr plugin. One installation of the plugin can be on a top level domain, a sub-domain or a sub-folder.
Example 1: If you purchase a 1 Site Plan, you are allowed to create one store in the Factory and install the Datafeedr plugin one time.
Example 2: If you purchase a 5 Site Plan, you are allowed to create 5 stores in the Factory and install the Datafeedr plugin one 5 different domains, sub-domains or sub-folders.
Example 3: If you purchase an Unlimited Site Plan, you are allowed to create up to 9,999 stores in the Factory and install the Datafeedr plugin on unlimited domains, sub-domains or sub-folders.
Example 4: If you are a member of the 1-Site Plan or 5-Site Plan, you may not have the plugin installed, activated and/or operating on more than your allowed number of domains, sub-domains, sub-folders or blogs. For example, if you are a 1-Site Plan member and you decide to install the Datafeedr plugin on a different domain than you initially installed it on, you MUST de-activate and remove the Datafeedr plugin from your original blog before installing the plugin on your new blog.
Example 5: Even though WordPress MU is not officially supported by Datafeedr, you may install Datafeedr on your MU blog. Each blog on your MU installation that has a Datafeedr store attached to it accounts against the total stores that you are allowed to create. If you have 5 blogs on your MU account and each blog has a Datafeedr store, this accounts for 5 stores and you would need to have a 5-Site Plan or greater in order to not be compliant with Datafeedr's Terms of Use.
Example 1: If you purchase a 1 Site Plan, you are allowed to create one store in the Factory and install the Datafeedr plugin one time.
Example 2: If you purchase a 5 Site Plan, you are allowed to create 5 stores in the Factory and install the Datafeedr plugin one 5 different domains, sub-domains or sub-folders.
Example 3: If you purchase an Unlimited Site Plan, you are allowed to create up to 9,999 stores in the Factory and install the Datafeedr plugin on unlimited domains, sub-domains or sub-folders.
Example 4: If you are a member of the 1-Site Plan or 5-Site Plan, you may not have the plugin installed, activated and/or operating on more than your allowed number of domains, sub-domains, sub-folders or blogs. For example, if you are a 1-Site Plan member and you decide to install the Datafeedr plugin on a different domain than you initially installed it on, you MUST de-activate and remove the Datafeedr plugin from your original blog before installing the plugin on your new blog.
Example 5: Even though WordPress MU is not officially supported by Datafeedr, you may install Datafeedr on your MU blog. Each blog on your MU installation that has a Datafeedr store attached to it accounts against the total stores that you are allowed to create. If you have 5 blogs on your MU account and each blog has a Datafeedr store, this accounts for 5 stores and you would need to have a 5-Site Plan or greater in order to not be compliant with Datafeedr's Terms of Use.
