 * Hello guys,
 * I’ve used this plugin to bulk remove a top-level category from a few hundred 
   products and replace it with another top-level category.
 * **Problem 1**
 * The edit product permalink field still shows the product to be a part of the 
   old category,
 * hence
 * **Problem 2**
 * These products can now be accessed by two different urls:
 * example.com/shop/old-category/same-product
    example.com/shop/new-category/same-
   product
 * I’ve tried flushing the permalinks by saving permalink settings with no luck.
   And since this bulk update didn’t trigger Rank Math to automatically issue 301
   redirects, I am not sure how to fix this.
 * If I use the native wordpress edit post on a product that hasn’t been updated
   via BEAR, everything works properly and the category changes along with the permalink.
