Bulk creating variable products | ww.wp.xz.cn

I have a variable product in woocommerce with variations. What I want to do it duplicate the product many times and just change the title and description.

Is there a quick way to do this instead of manually duplicating? Is it possible to do this via CSV? I tried exporting the product in CSV but when you import it it does not come as a variable product with the variations I created.

Appreciate any help

CSV should work.

But I also use this: https://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-advanced-bulk-edit/8011417

You select the product, duplicate it as many times as you want then edit the Product Name field, add an SKU and hit Save and you’re done.

What you describe is certainly possible with the default CSV exporter. There is some detailed documentation here:
https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/product-csv-importer-exporter/

Details of the required column headings can be found here:
https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/wiki/Product-CSV-Import-Schema#csv-columns-and-formatting

Basically, variations are imported using the same CSV but the Type column is set to Variation and the Parent column is set with the ID or SKU of the parent product.

I hope that helps you to figure it out.
Feel free to get back to us if you have further questions.
