Step 1: Access Your WooCommerce Product RSS Feed

WooCommerce automatically generates an RSS feed for your products. You can use this feed to display your products dynamically.

Step 2: Add Product Images to Your RSS Feed

By default, WooCommerce RSS feeds do not include product images. To include them, you need to modify your theme’s functions.php file.

1. Access the functions.php File:
   • Go to Appearance > Theme File Editor in your WordPress admin.
   • Open the functions.php file (preferably in a child theme).
     function-php
2. Add the Code to Include Images:
   • Add the following code to your functions.php file to include product images in your RSS feeds:

// Add product images to WooCommerce RSS feed
function add_product_image_to_rss_feed($content) {
 global $post;
 // Check if the post type is 'product'
 if (get_post_type($post->ID) == 'product') {
 // Get the product thumbnail
 $thumbnail = get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID, 'medium');
 
 // If thumbnail exists, prepend it to the RSS feed content
 if ($thumbnail) {
 $content = $thumbnail . $content;
 }
 }
 return $content;
}
add_filter('the_excerpt_rss', 'add_product_image_to_rss_feed');
add_filter('the_content_feed', 'add_product_image_to_rss_feed');

3. Save and Test:
   • Save the changes and check your feed to confirm that images are included.
