Flowbyte Bulk Edit adds a powerful product editor under Products → Bulk Edit in your WordPress admin. Stop opening one product at a time — filter your catalog, click any cell to edit it, or run a chunked bulk update across hundreds or thousands of products with a progress bar.
Filtering
- Search by product title or SKU
- Filter by category, tag, and any registered product attribute (Color, Size, Brand, etc.)
- Price range and stock-quantity range
- Stock status, product type, post status, and featured flag
- Active filter badges on each section so you always know what’s applied
Inline editing
Click any cell in the table to edit it. Press Enter to save, Esc to cancel; click outside also saves.
- Name, SKU, regular price, sale price
- Stock quantity (auto-enables manage-stock when you set a value)
- Stock status, post status
- Categories — opens a searchable multi-select popover with hierarchical labels
- Description and short description — open a TinyMCE modal with the full WordPress visual editor
Variable products show their variations as expandable sub-rows; each variation can be inline-edited independently. Editing a variation refreshes the parent’s aggregate price range automatically.
Bulk operations
Pick “Selected” or “All filtered”, choose an action, fill the parameters, and apply. The plugin sends product IDs to the server in chunks of 50 with a cancellable progress bar.
- Regular and sale prices — set, increase, or decrease by fixed amount or percent, with optional rounding (.99, .00, whole number)
- Sale window — set or clear sale start / end dates
- Stock — set quantity, set status, or toggle manage-stock
- Categories and tags — add, remove, or replace
- Shipping class and tax class — set
- Status, featured, catalog visibility — set
Price and stock operations on variable products apply to each variation and re-sync the parent.
Safety
- All AJAX endpoints require the
manage_woocommercecapability and a nonce - “Apply to all filtered” is capped at 5,000 products per run to keep memory predictable
- Each bulk chunk reports per-product errors that are surfaced in the progress modal — failed products don’t stop the batch
- No external HTTP calls, no telemetry, no upsell
Yes. Variable products show their variations as expandable sub-rows, and price- or stock-related bulk operations apply to each variation and re-sync the parent’s aggregate price range automatically.
The “Apply to all filtered” mode is capped at 5,000 products per batch run. Bulk operations are streamed to the server in chunks of 50, and you can cancel mid-flight from the progress modal.
Inline saves: the cell flashes red, restores the original value, and a toast shows the error (e.g., “SKU already in use”, “Sale price must be lower than regular price”).
Bulk runs: the failing product is logged in the per-run error list. The batch continues with the remaining products.
Yes. The plugin only operates on products and never reads or writes orders, so it is HPOS-compatible.
Yes. All strings are wrapped in WordPress translation functions and use the flowbyte-bulk-edit text domain.
