How do I fix a product that is linked to the wrong page?

Checking matches, 8 articles

Open Sources and go to the Mappings tab. Find the row for the product and the shop, click the pencil (Edit URL), paste the right product page and click Save. priceq checks the EAN on the new page before it saves the change.

Find the row

Every row pairs one of your products with one shop and shows the page priceq reads prices from. A wrong link still looks linked: it simply points at another product. Use the retailer filter to pick the shop, and type in the search box to find the product by sku, name or EAN.

The state column shows the raw state in English, such as matched or unmatched, whatever language your screen is in.

Change the page

  1. Click the pencil on the row. The Edit URL window opens. The shop cannot be changed here.
  2. Paste the address of the right product page under Product URL.
  3. Click Save.

priceq opens that page and compares the EAN in its product data with your product's EAN. When they are the same, the link is saved straight away with the state matched.

When they differ, the change is refused and you see Something went wrong. The same happens when the page shows no EAN at all, or your product has none. If you are sure the page is right, tick Skip EAN check and click Save again.

Remove the link instead

Click the bin (Delete) on the row. Confirm when your browser asks Delete this mapping? and the link is removed straight away.

priceq does not search that shop again for this product on its own after you delete a link it found itself. To link a page, click Link URL on the Mappings tab, pick the product and the shop, paste the address and click Link. You can also let priceq search once more with Find listing in the product's Links tab, though it may find the same page again. See Check links per product.

What this does not change

Fixing one link fixes that product at that shop, nothing else. It does not change how priceq matches your other products. If a link keeps breaking after the shop changes its page, read Why did a working link disappear?.
