Upload your CSV, preview every row before applying, choose exactly which products to update, and roll back the entire operation with a single click if needed. Lightweight, secure, and fully compliant with WordPress coding standards.

Highlights

• Preview before import — review every row before a single product is touched

• Auto-detect delimiter — semicolon, comma, tab, or pipe detected automatically
• Flexible product matching — match by ID, SKU, Slug, or Auto (ID → SKU → Slug)
• Post-import report — updated / ignored / failed counts with per-row failure details
• Downloadable CSV template — prefilled with your product data structure
• Multi-tab collision prevention — unique session token per preview
• Security-first — nonces, capability checks, sanitized inputs, safe redirects
• 100% free — no account required, no lock-in

What you can update

• Short Description (post excerpt)
• Description (post content, full HTML)

Who is it for?

• Developers who need a safe, auditable bulk-edit tool for client sites
• Agencies managing multiple WooCommerce stores

CSV Format

Your CSV must contain at least one lookup column: ID, SKU, or Slug. All other columns are optional.

Accepted column names (and aliases):

Canonical key
Accepted aliases

id
product_id

sku
(standard column name)

short_description
short, shortdesc, excerpt

description
desc, content

slug
post_name, permalink, url_key

seo_title
yoast_title, title_seo

meta_description
yoast_metadesc, meta_desc, metadesc

Column names are case-insensitive and accent-insensitive. Spaces and hyphens are treated as underscores.

Supported delimiters: ; (semicolon), , (comma), \t (tab), | (pipe). Use Auto (recommended) to let the plugin detect automatically.

A downloadable CSV template with a sample row is available directly from the plugin interface.
