    I find that I would like to be able to specify an image (such as a color palette) on a number of products without having to go into each product and select it. This is important if, for example, I need to change it. I would like to change it just once and all items that use it now benefit from the change.

    Additionally and similarly, I’d like to be able to specify a global disclaimer for some products following the above example for reasoning.

    Is this possible? Maybe a plugin?

    Thanks!

  • Hello @jglazer63 ,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    According to your requirement, it looks like you will need a bulk edit functionality. There are some free and paid options. Here are some suggestions –

    1. Bulk Edit Products, Prices and Attributes
    2. WooCommerce Bulk Edit Products
    3. Blog post – How to Bulk Edit WooCommerce Product Image and Gallery Images

    I hope this information helps.

    Thank you ??

    Thanks. Seems kinda odd that this basic functionality is missing from woocommerce. I would imagine that pretty much anyone who uses it substantially would need something like this.

    Thanks again!

    Hello @jglazer63 ,

    I understand your expectation but as of now, the built-in features do not allow to change all existing product’s featured image at once.

    However, if you want to change the default placeholder image for all of your new products or the products which do not have a featured image yet then you can use this example code –

    /**
     * Change the placeholder image
     */
    add_filter('woocommerce_placeholder_img_src', 'custom_woocommerce_placeholder_img_src');
    
    function custom_woocommerce_placeholder_img_src( $src ) {
    	$upload_dir = wp_upload_dir();
    	$uploads = untrailingslashit( $upload_dir['baseurl'] );
    	// replace with path to your image
    	$src = $uploads . '/2012/07/thumb1.jpg';
    	 
    	return $src;
    }

    I have taken this code from this developer doc – Change the placeholder image

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you ??

    I am not talking about featured image. Just an image that may be a reference to a size chart or color chart or something that a lot of products would share.

    Hello @jglazer63 ,

    In those circumstances using the bulk editing plugins mentioned in my first reply would be the way to go.

    You can submit this idea to WooCommerce in this forum as well – https://ideas.woocommerce.com/forums/133476-woocommerce

    Thank you ??
