Hi,

I wasn’t able to replicate the problem on my end, but I understand that something may have broken, especially since we introduced a lot of changes in version 1.1.0.

To better understand what’s happening, could you check for any errors in the browser console log? Open your browser’s Developer Tools (press?F12?or?Right Click > Inspect), navigate to Console tab.

Additionally, please enable debugging in WordPress and see if there are any PHP errors or warnings related to the plugin.

You can enable debugging by adding the following lines to your wp-config.php file (if not already enabled):

define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);
define(‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true);
define(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false);

After enabling debugging, check the wp-content/debug.log file for any relevant errors. Let us know what you find, and we’ll do our best to help resolve this issue.

Looking forward to your response!

Hi, Here’s how the condition currently works:

? The match runs against each category on the product individually and stops as soon as a match is found.

? If any category meets the condition, it is considered met. If none match, it is not met.

Given this logic:

1. “Is exactly” – This should work as expected. If at least one of the product’s categories exactly matches the specified category name, the condition is met—even if the product has additional categories.

2. “Is not exactly” – Currently, this condition is met if any category is different from the specified one, even if the specified category is also present. We understand that users might expect it to fail for products that include the specified category, regardless of other categories. We plan to revisit this logic to ensure it aligns with expectations.

Thanks for reporting this. To investigate further, we need some debug information. Could you check for any PHP errors, console log errors, or anything unusual in the network tab when saving a rule? Also, is this happening with a specific type of rule, or all rules? I wasn’t able to replicate the issue on my end.

Hi Camille,

Understood! To achieve what you need, simply keep the first rule active and disable or remove the second one. This way, when a product is updated and is on sale, the “Promos” category will be automatically assigned, and it will be removed once the sale ends.

For the initial setup, please run the rule manually on all products. To do this, check the checkbox in the first column for the first rule and then click “save and run selected.”

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion. We’re considering developing a Pro version of the plugin, and the brand filter feature is planned to be included in that release. We appreciate your input and will keep you updated on our progress!

Hi Frank,

Thanks for reporting the issue. We’ve fixed the bug, so please update the plugin to the latest version ?? Let us know if you have any other concerns.

Hi MJ,

Thank you so much for your detailed feedback and kind words about the Automatic Product Categories for WooCommerce plugin. We’re glad it’s been a great help in managing your extensive product inventory!

Your suggestions for improving category/tag selection—like adding alphabetical organization and a search/filter feature—as well as the idea to implement import/export functionality for rules are excellent. We see the value in these enhancements and will definitely consider them as we continue to improve the plugin.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your insights. Your input is invaluable in making the plugin even better for all users.
