 * Hello, I have wordpress & woocommerce v.6.2.2, php is 8.1.
   I installed the plugin,
   I chose a product and selected some related categories.I updated and then refreshed
   the page. The selected categories were gone.In the database I can see the new
   key inserted in post-meta table. But the entry is empty of elements, only an 
   empty array.Can I find somewhere older versions of this plugin ?Has anyone else
   bumped on this behavior ?

 * Hi [@h3ph3st0s](https://wordpress.org/support/users/h3ph3st0s/),
 * Greetings from WebToffee support.
 * We haven’t encountered the issue you mentioned. It seems like you are using an
   older version of WooCommerce. Please update the WooCommerce plugin and check 
   if the issue persists.
