Feature Request – External Product Import Enhancement 
Autor: D&D Gifts & M.Dear Website X5 Team,
First of all, thank you for your outstanding work – we love Website X5! We've been using it for more than 15 years, and honestly, there's nothing quite like it on the market. It’s powerful, flexible, and incredibly user-friendly. Your platform has made web development a joy for our team, and we truly appreciate the effort behind every update.
That said, there’s one single feature we deeply miss – one that could make a real difference in helping Website X5 compete even more effectively with major platforms like WooCommerce. We’re talking about external product import functionality enhancement for the webshop.
We’re aware that the current version already supports basic CSV product imports, which is useful – but it still requires manual uploading and doesn't support live external data sources or advanced automation. We strongly believe that enhancing this existing feature could truly set Website X5 apart from the competition.
We would absolutely love (and even pay extra for!) a plugin or feature that allows automatic importing of product data from external sources (like JSON, XML, or CSV). Just the essentials:
Product name
SKU/code
Description
Price
And multiple images (this part is especially important!)
Stock data wouldn’t even be necessary at this point, but welsome warmly!
Even better if the system could support a scheduled update via CRON job, so the data stays fresh without manual effort, and ensure compatibility with Google Shopping feeds. Essentially, a streamlined, user-friendly version of what WooCommerce offers – but without the complexity.
We’re sure we’re not alone in this request. A lot of loyal Website X5 users with webshops would benefit from such a feature, and it could open doors for even more professional eCommerce use cases on your platform.
Please consider this idea seriously – it could be a game-changer for many of us.
With sincere thanks and appreciation,
Endre Dankay

p.s.: P.S. The WebToffee Import Export plugin for WooCommerce is a great example of the kind of functionality we have in mind – flexible, intuitive, and powerful, yet easy to use.
