TOPIC: Adding Product excerpt to group/bulk products categories

Adding Product excerpt to group/bulk products categories 1 year 1 month ago #45732

Hi,

On the WP admin I've been editing product categories in bulk. I can change the category, tags, price etc. However, I can't add an excerpt, which would be really handy as all the products in the category will have the same excerpt or description. Is it possible to edit product excerpt or description in bulk?

I'm using the Abundance theme on Woocommerce plugin

Thanks

When you say edit in bulk, do you mean you want to change them all to the same thing?

Could you clarify?
Thanks,

Hi Ed,

Yes that page from the link is what I'm talking about. That's how I've been editing all the products in bulk, changing all the prices & tags in the category etc. However, I can't find an option to add an excerpt automatically to all the products in the category. I have to go into each product individually & copy/paste the excerpt, which is very time consuming.

On the page from the link you provided above it does mention 'view excerpt' button above the list, but I've tried it & it doesn't allow me to add the excerpt for the all the products. There isn't an excerpt yet, so I can't view it. I want to add the excerpt to all the products in bulk, like I can the tags, but it seems it's not possible.

Thanks just the same

What you want would be a woocommerce customization. It's not a standard feature. You should check with them if it's a high priority.
