Add a lot of thumbnails to woocommerce products categories

Hi @judgin,

Even though WooCommerce doesn’t have an option to automatically generate category thumbnails in bulk, I found a free plugin that seems to have this feature:

We’re not the authors of this plugin or associated with them, so if you have questions about how it works, I’d recommend to check it with them directly on their support forum.

Cheers!

As I understood this plugin allows to add a random thumbnails. But I need to add thumbnails from my image gallery. For the precise category the precise thumbnail. Any ideas?

Hi @judgin,

Thank you for your patience. I see what you mean now. If you’d like to choose specific images for each category, there’s only an option to add each image manually in the category settings.

If you’d prefer to do this in bulk, we’ll need a plugin that allows to specifically import product categories (rather than just products like the built-in product importer & exporter does).

Even though we don’t have an official plugin like this, I found a tutorial on the WebToffee website explaining how to do this with their premium extension:

We’re not associated with WebToffee, so if you’re interested in how this plugin works, I’d recommend reaching out to them directly.

Cheers!

We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
