    Thank you for this plugin! I have found it very useful. However, I think I may have found a bug when importing products.

    Issue:
    (This is for a new WordPress/WooCommerce website.) When attempting to map attributes to columns I noticed that not all of my store’s attributes were showing up as “Product fields“. Some of the attributes I had just added were missing.

    Workaround:
    My temporary fix was to create a test product and make sure it contained every single WooCommerce attribute along with a placeholder attribute value. Once the new attributes had at least one term they then showed up on the Import screen as attributes that could have columns mapped to them.

    Hi @inboundhorizons,

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    In order to display the attributes on the mapping screen, the attribute must be linked to at least one product on your site. This is how the plugin currently works. However, we have taken note of your suggestion and added it to our development pipeline. It will be included in our future updates.

    Thank you @webtoffeesupport for the quick response! I am glad that this is not an outright bug. And thank you for adding the suggestion to the development pipeline. It was just a little confusing at first trying to figure out why the attributes were not appearing.
