Curate products
For the product-based models — affiliate, e-commerce, and display — TMN puts products into your articles. You control which ones at two levels: the plan's product source, and per-article curation. The guiding rule is simple: you know best — any product you choose by hand takes priority and won't be overwritten.
Auto vs. curated
Open an article's drawer and you'll find its Products panel. Each product is tagged one of two ways:
auto — TMN found it automatically.
curated — you attached it by hand. Curated products are locked: automatic search won't replace them.
If you don't attach anything, products are auto-researched at generation time.
Plan level: the product source
For affiliate plans, choose which networks TMN searches in the plan's Article generation panel → Product source. Automatic product search is available for these Content Egg modules:
Amazon API, Amazon No API, Bol.com, Walmart, BestBuy, eBay.
You can still manually attach products from any other Content Egg module, even ones without automatic search.
Attach products by hand
In the article's Products panel, click + Add products. In the search box, choose a Content Egg module, type a keyword (and optionally a price range), search, and attach the ones you want. They become curated and stay put through regeneration. Remove one with its ×, or use Remove all to start over.
How the search runs — affiliate vs. e-commerce
The two product models find products in very different ways.
Affiliate — searched at generation, on our server. TMN passes your selected network modules to the generation server, which searches, ranks, and places products as it writes the article. (This is why a money article needs a product source — or manually attached products — before it will generate.)
E-commerce — searched in your site, up front. A product feed lives in your WordPress database and can be very large, so it isn't searched on our server. Instead:
The planner suggests search keywords and criteria for each product article.
When the article is created, TMN searches your feed locally and attaches matching products right away.
It attaches more than the article needs — a pool of "reserve candidates." At generation, the AI picks the best ones for the article.
You can preview and edit these suggested feed products before generating.
E-commerce works with any product feed — including affiliate feeds — and those feed products are searched automatically.
Adding your own feed products: if you've edited the auto-suggested feed candidates and want to attach more, remove the remaining reserve candidates first.
