Lavo Bulk Edit for WooCommerce

Description

Lavo Bulk Edit is a free WooCommerce plugin for editing products, prices, stock, and variations in bulk – with no row caps, full variable product support, and real post-save undo.

Why Lavo Bulk Edit is different

No row caps, ever.
Edit your entire catalog in one session. Whether you have 500 products or 500,000, Lavo Bulk Edit pages through them cleanly at 25, 50, 100, or 200 rows at a time – no artificial limits.

Variable products that actually work.
Every variation appears as its own editable row, directly beneath its parent, with full attribute labels shown inline (e.g. Size: Large / Color: Red). No collapsing, no guessing, no clicking into individual products just to change a price.

Queue multiple changes, apply once.
Add as many field changes as you need before committing – price adjustments, stock updates, category reassignments, status changes – then apply them all in a single operation. One request. One save per product.

Bulk thousands of products without timeouts.
Operations on more than 200 products automatically run in the background using WooCommerce’s own Action Scheduler. A live progress bar shows you exactly how far along the job is. If you close the tab or refresh the page mid-operation, the progress bar reconnects automatically when you return – no lost work.

Real post-save undo.
Not a pre-save preview. Not a session-only rollback. Lavo Bulk Edit records a before/after snapshot of every field it touches. Made a mistake? Hit Undo from the on-screen notification – your products are restored exactly as they were.

Edit inline, without the action bar.
Click any price, SKU, stock quantity, stock status, or publish status directly in the table and edit it in place. Changes save immediately. A green flash confirms success; a red flash tells you something went wrong. No modals, no reloads.

Built for performance

Lavo Bulk Edit is engineered to stay fast as your catalog grows:

• Jobs are persisted in the database. If you close the browser tab or refresh mid-operation, the progress bar reconnects automatically when you return
