One-click (automatic) linking
It is possible to link (assign) multiple Orbitvu presentations to multiple Prestashop products with one click. The algorithm compares Orbitvu Presentation's SKU with Prestashop's product reference field and if they match, the Orbitvu presentation is automatically linked (assigned) to the Prestashop product.
Note! Orbitvu presentation's SKU can be set in Orbitvu Station during project creation.
Tip! Orbitvu presentation's SKU can be edited on your SUN account.
In order to execute "Auto linking" script please go to the "Modules -> Installed modules -> Orbitvu SUN -> Configure" and scroll down to the bottom of the page to the section "Cron jobs".
Before executing "Auto linking" script, let's see which products have assigned Orbitvu presentations.
Let's execute "Auto linking" script.
Note! This script may consume a lot of time depending on the number of products in Prestashop and the number of Orbitvu presentations on your SUN account. That is why, please check your "max_execution_time" server setting to avoid errors.
After a while, you should receive success info.
If any problem with autolinking occurs, it is possible to cancel the process. Enter the autolink URL in the browser and add: &ov_cancel=true

In order to check if Orbitvu presentations have been linked to Prestashop products, go to "Catalog -> Products".
As you can see, above screen shows that Samsung Gear Fit and KIT MAXI 3D presentations have been automatically linked to the Prestashop products by SKU and product's reference code match.
This feature saves a lot of time because you don't have to manually assign Orbitvu presentations product by product.
Tip! You can add "Auto linking" url to your server CRON jobs to avoid executing the script manually.
Auto synchronizing
Sometimes when you make changes on your SUN account for a particular Orbitvu presentation (i.e: SKU change, adding/removing items to/from the Orbitvu presentation), it is necessary to update the linked (assigned) Orbitvu presentation in a shop (keep Orbitvu presentation up to date with SUN).
To do this, you should execute "Auto synchronizing" script and all linked Orbitvu presentations will be updated.
