Description
Samatoras Bulk Edit lets you change prices, stock levels, stock status, product status and categories across your whole WooCommerce catalogue at once.
Three things it does that store owners keep asking for:
- It edits everything the filter matches, not just the page you can see. Filter to 4,000 products and all 4,000 are edited, in batches, with a progress bar.
- It edits variations. Price and stock on a variable product live on its variations, so the plugin applies your changes there. This is on by default and can be switched off.
- It shows you the change before it happens, and undoes it after. Preview lists the old and new value side by side. One button reverses the last run.
What you can change
- Regular price — set, increase or decrease, by a fixed amount or a percentage
- Sale price — set, clear, or take a percentage off the regular price
- Stock quantity — set, increase or decrease, with the option to turn on stock management where it is off
- Stock status — in stock, out of stock, on backorder
- Product status — published, draft, pending, private
- Categories — add or remove
What you can filter on
- Product name contains
- SKU contains
- Product type
- Product status
- Stock status
- One or more categories
- Price range
Safety
- Nothing is written until you press Apply, and Apply asks for confirmation
- The preview is a genuine dry run — it calculates the result without saving it
- A sale price that is not below the regular price is skipped and reported rather than saved
- Prices and stock are never written as negative numbers
- Undo restores the previous values of the last run
- Only users who can manage WooCommerce can open the screen, and every request is nonce checked
External services
This plugin does not connect to any external service. It makes no HTTP requests, collects no data, and sends nothing anywhere. Everything it does happens inside your own site.
Requirements
WooCommerce must be installed and active. The plugin declares this with the “Requires Plugins” header, so WordPress 6.5 and later will enforce it for you.
No feature locks
Every feature described above is in this free plugin. There is no product limit, no row limit, no trial, and no upgrade prompt blocking a button.

FAQ
-
Does this work on variable products?
-
Yes. Price and stock are stored on each variation, so the plugin applies those changes to the variations. Leave “Include variations” ticked. Product status and categories always apply to the parent product.
-
How many products can it handle at once?
-
It processes in batches of 40 over AJAX with a progress bar, so a large catalogue does not time out. A single run is capped at 50,000 products.
-
Can I undo a mistake?
-
Yes. “Undo last run” restores the previous values from the most recent run. The log keeps the last two runs, so undo the mistake before starting another run.
-
Does it change anything I did not ask it to?
-
No. Any field left on “Leave alone” is not touched, and a product whose value already matches the target is skipped.
-
Does it work with High-Performance Order Storage?
-
Yes. The plugin only touches products and declares HPOS compatibility.
-
Will it slow my site down?
-
No. The plugin runs only in the admin area on its own screen. It adds nothing to the front end.
