Meta fields slider

@realmag777 The solution is not hard at all.
I solved it by adding a cron job instead of a hook. I just added the following

$width_max = "";
$width_min = "0";
$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'product',
    'posts_per_page' => 1,
    'meta_query' => array(
        array(
            'key'     => '_width',
            'value'   => '',
            'compare' => '!=',
        )
    ),
    'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
    'order' => 'DESC' 
);
$loop = new WP_Query( $args );
$new_counter = 0;
if ( $loop->have_posts() ) {
    while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post();
    $id = get_the_ID();
    $new_counter++;
    $width_max = get_post_meta($id, '_width', true);
    endwhile;
}
$options = get_option('woof_settings');
$options['_width']['range'] = $width_min.'^'.$width_max;
update_option('woof_settings', $options);

The best practice here is probably to add this functionality to a hook that gets fired everytime a product is edited. But since we get around 3000 new products every morning I decided to add a cronjob that fires after the retrieval of products is finished
