Thanks, I’ve used your plugin on other websites and it’s amazing.

So just to confirm, if I use your plugin will it affect the order of the products which I’ve changed when using the WooCommerce functionality?

Thanks again

Hi

Thanks so much for the quick response. That makes so much sense.

Would I be able to use your sorting functionality along with the built in WooCommerce sorting functionality? Or would this cause issues with the ordering of products?

Thank you

Hi @anastas10s

Feel free to share further details about your store’s setup, and why such a number of values is needed, as this would probably open the path to discussing alternatives.

We recently integrated a POS system into our WooCommerce store. According to the POS instructions, the setup is a fundamental part of linking up the two data sets. Having only 3 attributes (Specification 1, Specification 2, Specification 3)with all the values listed under them.

How good of an example product is the one with ID?41465, taken from the exported file you are sharing here with us?

That is a good example. I just double checked and can’t seem to find a duplicate SKU of this item (omega), where do you see it?

The values in the AO column, for the 5078 line, are numerous

Is this a bad thing? These are all the values listed in our variations dropdown.

Thank you

Hi @anastas10s

Thanks for the reply.

My suggestion would be to input them in the Value(s) field, found under the Attributes tab of a Variable product. A screenshot, showcasing this, can be found linked here.

Are you saying that I should retype them? Or is there an easy way to convert the global attributes into local/custom attributes?

Subsequently, make sure that?Custom Ordering?is selected in the?Default Sort Order?drop-down menu, in the options for that?Attribute, as?showcased in the screenshot linked here.

Custom ordering is currently selected but it’s still quite a mission to reorder the values because they are listed so far apart (it’s literally 100’s that I need to go through). So I really need a better way of reordering the values.

Perhaps share a copy of that .CSV file, so we could run tests from our end?

It actually looks like all custom attributes have now become global attributes. Please find the export here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kDoMJhJEb2h_NkMBdijN1_iES77qhZ0E-KpCXp0yzhE/edit?usp=sharing

Thank you

Hi @anastas10s

Thanks for the reply.

As I mentioned we have over 1000 values under one attribute which is making it very difficult to reorder the values within Products > Attributes and they are listed in alphabetical order. How would I go about reordering the values here? Could you perhaps recommend a plugin which will make it easier to reorder?

Also when I did the product import (via the standard csv file – WooCommerce import) why would most of my attributes which were previously saved as custom attributes change to global attributes? I checked the csv import file and the Attribute 1 global column was set to “0” so I’m not sure why they are displaying as global attributes?

Thank you

Hi @xue28

I imported the products using the normal WooCommerce import functionality (Products> Import). The attributes were changed in this product import.

Is there an easy way to reorder our global attributes values? We have over 1000 values under one attribute which is making it very difficult to reorder.

Thank you

Hi Amir

Thanks for the reply.

The strange thing is that the attributes always displayed as custom attributes until we did a huge import where we changed some of the attributes and added some custom meta to our products. Would this then change the custom attributes to global attributes?

We would really like to revert back to custom attributes as we are struggling to reorder the values. Strange enough not all of the global attributes can be found here Products > Attributes. Which I don’t understand, do you perhaps?
And is it possible to revert back and make it custom attributes?

Thank you

Hi Pepe

Thanks so much for the reply.

We will try this but are still confused as to why the Attribute 1 name is not importing correctly, what could be causing this? It’s breaking quite a few of our product pages which have variations listed on it.

Thank you

Hi

I’m experiencing the same problem issue in the back-end with my products but my loading time seems to be much longer. When Yoast SEO is active and I open a product in the back-end it either times out where we need to debug the page or it’ll take 5 minutes to load. However, when I deactivate Yoast SEO then the product will load in 5 secs. We do have quite a bit of products on our site, around 6000.

I’ve tried all the instructions found here: https://yoast.com/help/how-to-check-for-plugin-conflicts/ but the same issue is still occurring. The Yoast SEO plugin and WP install is up-to-date.

Please let me know how to fix this.

Thanks

Hi Pepe

Thanks so much for the reply.

The file was exported via the website using the product export button (as seen in your attachment). I then imported the file utilising the Woocommerce import button.

Please find the export and import files here:

Export: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Bv8QYTt6Lta_-QufD3bfv1Fm9NjwhPcl/view?usp=sharing
Import: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NVJOrF2xus4lT-_HLkhy1cKhXdiA1Byz/view?usp=sharing

These are a some of the IDs we are having issues with: 33546, 39287, 39288, 39289, 39290, 33543. Basically the Attribute 1 name does not update after the import so it breaks the variable dropdown on the website.

Thank you

Hi @priyankajagtap

Thanks for looking into this for me and replying to my message on your website.

Hi

Thanks, I will definitely test it out on a stage site and let you know if the issue still occurs.

Could you please answer two questions:

1. If Manage stock is enabled globally must stock quantity be added?
2. Once Manage stock is enabled globally does WooCommerce have a default quantity amount which it uses? How does this work

Thank you

T

Hi

Manage stock is unchecked and stock status automatically changed to “on backorder”. Not sure how as the stock quantity has not been added as seen in the screen shot here: https://snipboard.io/N0V3dY.jpg

Thank you

Thank you so much, @doekenorg, it’s perfect!

Hi @doekenorg

Thank you. I was hoping there was a way to strip HTML tags in all fields. Is there way to target them all? I just don’t want our excel download file to contain any HTML.

Thank you
