Adding category and description field to variation and variable products

  • We have a woocommerce shop site and we want to add category and description field to any products row (variations and variables)in our excel exported product file, now the category field and description field exist just for variables and not variations.

    I think we could change the database structure to hold category and description field for every variation , but I am new on this issue so I need help

    [The Blue ones are ok but we want to add same data as variables to related variations shown as red]

    Hi there,

    Can you share a bit more on the underlying use-case for that – Why do you need a taxonomy + description to be assigned to variations that can only ever “live” as part of a variable product?

    With that being said, if you’re looking to assign individual categories on a per-variation basis rather than to the custom-post-type then significant customisations are required. The extent and complexity of these customisations (more than just database changes) means you’d likely need to get in touch with a web developer or one of the customisation experts listed at https://woocommerce.com/customizations/.

    Hello , Thanks for response
    we want to give this exported excel file to our wholesale customers , and they need to know which SKU belongs to which category.
    the variable category and related variation category value should be the same so I thought maybe with minor DB changes we can do this .
