Variation IDs
Variation IDs
ShopWired assigns a unique but unstable ID to each product variation, which changes with any edits made to the product - even if the variation data itself remains unchanged.
If you have selected to list variations as separate products in the feed, it is strongly recommended to use variation SKUs as the identifier. This prevents variation IDs from changing when the product is edited.
To do so, select yes for the Use SKU codes as the identifiers for product variations setting.
