Vendor Store Categories

[sales.gearya]

Hello,

I imported products via CSV 162 items. I assigned them to one of the vendor stores through the bulk edit function of WooCommerce. They all appear in that vendor store when you visit. However, not all the categories appear on the left hand side. I have not customized the store vendor page from default at all at this point. I found that in order for the categories to appear in the vendor page i had to manually create a product and assign it to the category and vendor. After doing that the assigned category will show up on the vendor page and when clicking it, it would show that manually created product and all the additional vendor items that are actually in that category from the CSV import. As soon as i delete the manually created product the category disappears from the vendor page. The issues seems when doing an import that items imported are not getting the appropriate assignment that would make that category appear on the vendor page. It seems like there needs to be some sort of indexing done or something, but i see no indexing options in WCFM. What do i do to get these to appear besides creating some manual item that I don’t want?

Thanks
James

i have found a workaround. If i go to any of the products that were imported and i re-save them manually (individually), then the categories in which they are associated will show up on the vendor page. There is surely something missing when doing a CSV import, or the assignment to store in bulk edit mode. One of those two things is not updating the product properly to get the categories to appear on the vendor page.

I tried to do a bulk edit within WCFM on all products to see if that would work, but it does not. The only way to get them updated and the category to appear on the left side of the vendor page is to do them one at a time. With that in mind; i would say the problem almost certainly is with the bulk edit not working properly within WCFM to make the category association appear properly for the vendor. I used the bulk edit to assign them to the store, after doing the import which points to the bulk editor. Then now trying the bulk editor to update all items and it still not giving proper assignment to the categories for the vendor page, also points to the bulk editor being where the issue resides.

Thanks

HI,

Please add this line to your site –

add_filter( 'wcfmmp_force_store_taxonomy_refresh', '__return_true' );

Now, browse that vendor’s store page. Remove this line.

Thank You
