Ecommerce Ops

Google will shut down Content API for Shopping on August 18, 2026. For most ecommerce teams, this is not a simple endpoint replacement: Merchant API changes data sources, identifiers, status handling, update behavior, and batching, so the sensible scope is feed cleanup plus migration.

WooCommerce’s current HPOS guidance is a useful reality check for established stores: this is not just a setting to enable. If your store carries plugin debt, custom reporting, or direct database integrations, HPOS migration needs to be scoped and run like an ops project.
