Overview
Managing product categories one item at a time can take considerable effort in a busy WooCommerce store. This plugin lets you select multiple products and apply category changes in bulk. Add categories to a group of products or remove categories from them, keeping the work focused on the products you choose.
Product filters help narrow the list for targeted edits, including filters for SKU, price, and stock status. You can preview changes before applying them. The plugin supports simple and variable products, making it useful for routine catalog organization, promotional updates, or changes to product groupings.
Features
- Bulk category assignment: Add categories to multiple selected products in one operation, instead of opening and editing each product separately.
- Bulk category removal: Remove categories from a selected group of products to update how those items are organized in the store.
- Filter product lists: Narrow products for a targeted category edit using criteria such as SKU, price, and stock status.
- Preview category changes: Review proposed bulk edits before applying them, helping you check the selected changes ahead of time.
- Simple and variable products: Manage categories for both simple and variable products in your WooCommerce catalog.
Best for
- WooCommerce store owners managing large catalogs
- Stores reorganizing product categories
- Retailers updating categories for promotions
