Show Local Woocommerce Product attributes with global attributes

    Hello,

    So, currently, any filter plugin I have tried only shows the global product attributes in the filter widgets.
    However, I was wondering is there any way or plugin that shows all the attributes (local or global) in the filter widgets, etc.
    OR
    Is it possible that, woocommerce treat all the variables as global variable or pick up any local attributes when product is publish and upload it automatically / covert it to global attribute?

    let me know,
    regards

  • Hello! You have asked about filtering products by their local attributes along with the global attributes. Within WooCommerce core it isn’t possible to filter with custom attributes, only Global attributes, as you have seen.

    I’d recommend the following to move local attributes to global attributes:

    • Create the Global attributes you need
    • Assign them to some of the products
    • Export all of your products to a CSV document
    • Update all of your other products by following the format laid out in the ones you already assigned attributes to
    • Import your products, making sure to select Update existing products

    You can learn more about product attributes here – https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/managing-product-taxonomies/#section-6

    The relevant information concerning updating existing products is here – https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/product-csv-importer-exporter/#section-6

    I hope this helps! If you have any further questions please feel free to reply to this thread and I will get back to you.

    Take care!
