That works
thank you very much

Thank you very much. I will raise a separate ticket for the import issue

Hi @omarfpg
Thank you, this works.

Editing (regular or bulk) catalog visibility via the UI for out of stock items sets product visibility to the correct value.
Tax:product_visibility = outofstock

Catalog visibility for all records was previously set as
visibility = visible
Via bulk editor I set them to ‘Hidden’, updated, then set them back to ‘Catalog & Search’ behind the scenes this must be forcing the product visibility to be set.

I cannot see Tax:product_visibility via UI but I can see it in exported data. And the count of products displayed is now correct.

Thank you very much.

But in doing this I have discovered that “CSV Import Suite” is only working for me for export not import.

Having exported data to ensure I have the format correct, I edited in Google Sheets and saved to csv.
I tried merging 1 record with all the columns.
I also tried importing 1 record with all the columns but both failed with same error as before
Error finding uploaded file!

and nothing in fatal errors log

Is this something you can help me with – or do I need to ask somewhere else?

Hi shameemreza

First of all, thank you very much for helping me. I believe you are pointing me in the right direction, but I am not sure what I can do to fix this.

Most of these products were imported many years ago, using the Woo premium product “CSV Import Suite”. It looks like Product Visibility is something that has been added some time during the development of WooCommerce.

Opening one of the current out-of-stock items, then saving does not change anything.

I reran the Woocommerce > Status > Tools you listed and cleared browser cache with no difference.

For testing purposes, I created 2 new products

• ‘test-inStock’, Quantity? = 1
• ‘test-Out of Stock’, Quantity = 0

For both of these, I set product-tag=Austria, Stock management = checked

These work as expected:

• ‘test-inStock’, is shown on the page and increments the count of products displayed by 1
• ‘test-Out of Stock’, is not shown on the page and does not increment the count of products

To check the data, I exported via  “CSV Import Suite” and viewed the CSV in Google Sheets. Looking at the 5 rows with product_tag including “Austria” I can see that for the new product ‘test-Out of Stock’ there is a value “outofstock” in the tax:product_visibility column. The other rows have nothing in that column.

I believe this confirms what you what were saying about missing values in product visibility for my old products.

So what I tried to do is edit that data in the spreadsheet to add “outofstock” value for out of stock products and merge it back in. However, I am getting an error when I try to merge products with CSV Import Suite. I did my edits in Google Sheets, removed unchanged columns and rows, making sure to keep ID and sku columns. I can see the csv is being read as it shows me the screen for mapping fields, but when I press Submit, I get “Error finding uploaded file!”

In case it was a permissions issue on my dev environment I uploaded .csv as a new media file, that works.

I had a look at the built-in import/export that is now part of WooCommerce but it does not appear to export the product visibility.

Please can you help me on how I can fix these product visibility values

That works.
Thank you very much

The site I am using the plugin on is not the main website

Yes. I just double-checked.
cimy_uef_mu_activation.php is in /public_html/wp-content/mu-plugins
other files in /public_html/wp-content/plugins/cimy-user-extra-fields
and this directory has been created
/public_html/wp-content/Cimy_User_Extra_Fields with a subdirectory for 15 the site id

Is there anything else you can think of?

Marco,

First of all thank you very much for responding so quickly.

I saved the options and got a message that options had been saved successfully. Normal WP Users > All Users Edit still has same PHP errors.

In Cimy I added a field, and set the flag to send an email to admin after changes. Editing that field using Users Extended works fine. Normal edit still has PHP errors but changes to that field are saved and the email is sent.

Is there anything else you can suggest

I found a solution by changing a setting in Suffusion Options

Back-end > Comment Settings > Allow Replies for Trackbacks and Pingbacks?
set to Allow replies to Trackbacks and Pingbacks

If this is set then Comments keep the Reply option

I guess the way Social plugin treats comments is treated by Suffusion as being Trackbacks / Pingbacks
