Change false to true and save the file. (If the above line is missing add it and set to true.
Login to FeedSync and you will now have the ability to edit the status of listings.
Just click on the status and select a new status. Deleting is also possible, however we now set a status of deleted instead of removing the entry. To truly delete listings visit the Deleted tab and delete from there.
