Hierarchy in reverse order

    I am currently using your all import plugin with the woocommerce app. I have uploaded an xml file. Under “Taxonomies, Catagories, Tags” I have selected “Products have hierarchical (parent/child) Product Categories (i.e. Sports > Golf > Clubs > Putters)”. Then I selected “An element in my file contains the entire hierarchy (i.e. you have an element with a value = Sports > Golf > Clubs > Putters)”. The problem with the xml file is it has about 75 products that have the Hierarchy is reverse order. Here is an example <categoryPath>Cake Mixes > Mixes > Baking</categoryPath>. “Baking” should be the parent category and “Mixes” and then “Cake Mixes” should be the child categories. I am using the WooCommerce Widget to list the categories on my website, but it is showing “Cake Mixes” as the parent category and “Baking” as the child category. Is there a way to fix this without manually switching the hierarchy for all the products in the xml file?

    If you want to programmatically change the order of your hierarchical categories, the best way would be a custom PHP function to explode the string in an array using ” > ” as the string delimiter. Then you can reverse the order of this array and turn it back into a string, with each value again separated by ” > “.
