WooCommerce Square not accepting meta csv changes

    Hey there!

    Since the Square plugin for WooCommerce doesn’t allow us to select “sync with square” for multiple items at once, we thought we’d export the store’s inventory in a csv file, change the meta info, and then re-import.

    On the sheet, the csv column header is “Meta: is_square_sync”. If products are not synced, the column data should have a “1”, and if they are supposed to sync, the data should be a “2”. However, after changing the input to “2” and re-importing, none of the items have “yes” checked under the “sync with Square?” option. Any other meta data we change in the CSV file is properly imported, but the Square sync option is not. I’ve also tried disabling all plugins except for WooCommerce and the Square extension, but the problem remained, so I don’t think it’s a conflict with another plugin.

    Any ideas?

    @shammons The sync meta field was from Square 1.x and in version 2.x it was changed to be a taxonomy, which is why importing via csv is not working.

    It’s possible to use the bulk editor to change the Sync with Square taxonomy:

    The taxonomy to use would be wc_square_synced, and it would just need to be applied to the product. The built in importer does not have the ability to add custom taxonomies like this, so something like Product CSV Import Suite would need to be used.
