    All, I’m migrating the current website https://www.aerialliftequipment.com to WP. I’m using Elementor Pro / Woo / JetSmartFilter to recreate the product display like this https://www.aerialliftequipment.com/c14/aerial-lifts-specifications

    The site is custom coded in Laravel. The data has been imported to Woo via a complex script (seven tables had to be joined). There are around 50 attributes.

    Regardless, the product attributes came to Woo as custom attributes. The attributes have to be global in order for JetFilter to work. Is there a way to convert the existing custom attributes to global attributes? I found a $50 plugin but thought I could do it myself. https://wpsheeteditor.com

    In case I have to rewrite the script, what needs to be done to make the attributes global? Also, would it be better to import the existing attributes as ACF – It would enable me to group the attributes. Here is screenshot https://prnt.sc/XV0yxnDDhpJF

    Hello agvorob,

    Thank you for contacting WooCommerce support.

    I understand you’re looking to convert custom product attributes into global attributes for compatibility with JetSmartFilter, and you’re considering rewriting your script or using ACF for attribute grouping.

    Since this involves third-party plugins and custom code, it falls outside our support policy.
    I recommend posting your question in the Woo Community Slack, where other users and developers may provide helpful insights.

    I hope this helps.

    Best regards.
