Features

1. Smart Cache - it allows you to store products information in the database rather than retrieving it from the API every time a page loads. Products in the database are then updated via CRON task which prevents throttled requests from the API and increases page speed.
2. Cache Refresh Interval - cached products are updated via CRON job daily, twice daily or hourly. You select the interval in the settings.
3. Custom Templates - while the plugin comes with a very basic template, it is recommended that you create your own template which fits your needs and website. How to create a custom template is explained in the documentation.
4. Retrieve product information from whichever locale via filters. For more information see the documentation.
