CataLord puts everything you need on a single, clean screen - and adds tools WooCommerce doesn't offer out of the box.<\/p>\n\n<p>The free plugin covers the full single-product editor, the full Variant Builder, bulk actions and bulk edit with no per-batch cap, CSV export with no row cap, extended Quick Edit (brand \/ category \/ tags inline), upsells &amp; cross-sells editing, and AI product descriptions with your own Google Gemini API key. An optional <strong>CataLord Pro<\/strong> upgrade unlocks catalog-scale paradigms that the free tier doesn't try to be: Sheet Mode (spreadsheet-style multi-product editing, including adding new products as rows), CSV Import wizard, AI Product Enrichment, AI image editing, and deeper editor integrations. Every Pro feature is clearly tagged in the lists below.<\/p>\n\n<p>Most features below are part of the free CataLord plugin.

Find exactly the products you need in seconds.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Bulk Edit<\/strong> - Update prices, stock, status, categories, tags, brands, and linked products across multiple products at once, with the choice to append or replace existing values. No per-batch cap.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customizable Columns<\/strong> - Show or hide table columns to focus on what matters to you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Smart Links<\/strong> - External links open in new tabs by default, so you never lose your place.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sales Data Column (Pro)<\/strong> - See total sales figures for every product directly in the main product table, with click-to-sort.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sheet Mode (Pro)<\/strong> - Switch into a spreadsheet-style view for rapid multi-product editing with drag-to-fill, undo, column reordering, column visibility controls, and adding new products as rows.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Product Editor<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Single-Screen Editing<\/strong> - Pricing, inventory, shipping, images, categories, attributes, SEO, and linked products - all visible and editable without switching tabs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Drag &amp; Drop Images<\/strong> - Upload from your computer and rearrange gallery images by dragging, including promoting a gallery image to the featured image. (<strong>Pro<\/strong> adds paste an image from your clipboard, or from an image address, with automatic WebP conversion.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Simplified Stock Management<\/strong> - Intuitive inventory controls without the confusing separation between stock tracking and stock management.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Variant Builder<\/strong> - Create variable products effortlessly. No need to set up attributes in advance - just type attribute names and values, and CataLord generates all combinations automatically. Multi-attribute generation (Color x Size x Material), the \"Any\" variant pattern and auto-inheritance from existing variants are all included. <strong>Pro adds drag-to-reorder.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Smart Orphan Detection<\/strong> - Warnings when variations reference deleted attributes or values, with automatic filtering of invalid combinations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Duplicate SKU Alerts<\/strong> - Real-time warnings when a SKU is already in use by another product.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Progress Bar<\/strong> - Visual tracker for new product setup so you never forget a required field.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scheduled Publishing<\/strong> - Set future publication dates with an intuitive, clear interface.<\/li>\n<li><strong>One Save Button<\/strong> - No more confusion between Publish, Update, and Save Draft. One button, clear status management.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Drag &amp; Drop Layout<\/strong> - Rearrange editor sections to match your personal workflow.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Smart Attributes<\/strong> - The Attributes block shows the attributes this product already uses, then the ones most relevant to it - ranked by what other products in the same category actually use, and kept up to date as your catalog changes. Add all the common attributes of a category in one click, or find any attribute instantly with search.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Instant Taxonomy Access<\/strong> - Categories, brands, and tags are immediately accessible with in-list search and automatic parent category selection.<\/li>\n<li><strong>SEO Fields<\/strong> - See your Yoast SEO or Rank Math title and meta description right inside the product editor. <strong>Pro<\/strong> makes them editable in place and can fill them with AI.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Keyboard Shortcuts<\/strong> - Save with Ctrl+S (Cmd+S on Mac) from anywhere in the editor. <strong>Pro<\/strong> adds paste-to-upload: press Ctrl+V to add an image straight from your clipboard.<\/li>\n<li><strong>AI Product Descriptions<\/strong> - Generate and refine product descriptions with AI (requires your own Google Gemini API key - bring your own key). <strong>Pro adds saved custom system prompts.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Taxonomy Entry<\/strong> - Add new attribute values, categories, tags, and brands inline without leaving the product editor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>AI Image Editing (Pro)<\/strong> - Edit product images with free-text instructions using Google's Gemini \"Nano Banana\" image model and auto-save to WebP (requires your own Gemini API key).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Linked Products Made Easy<\/strong> - Add upsells and cross-sells with a fast search-and-select interface.

Free shows ACF fields read-only.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Extended Quick Edit<\/strong> - Assign Brand, Category, and Tags inline from the product list.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>AI Product Enrichment (Pro)<\/h4>\n\n<p>Most stores sell products they did not make - and the data arrives as a bare name, a supplier's one-liner, or a messy paste. AI Product Enrichment turns that into a complete, consistent product page in one click, using your own Google Gemini API key.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fill with AI<\/strong> - Open any product, however thin or untidy its content, and let the AI complete it from what the product already holds. You choose which parts to fill.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Everything a product page needs<\/strong> - A clean product name, full description, short description, category assignment, brand, tags, attributes with their values, and SEO title and meta description.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fits your store, not a template<\/strong> - Categories, brands and attribute values are matched to the ones your catalog already uses, so enrichment does not litter your taxonomy with near-duplicates. New values are suggested for your approval, never added silently.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Works at import scale<\/strong> - The CSV Import wizard has an enrichment step: import a file that carries little more than product names and let the AI complete every row on the way in.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Your language, your voice<\/strong> - Output language follows your setting, with full Hebrew \/ RTL support, and saved custom prompts keep the tone consistent.<\/li>\n<li><strong>You stay in control<\/strong> - Every suggestion lands in the editor for review. Nothing is saved until you press Save.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Taxonomy Manager<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Unified Management<\/strong> - Manage brands, categories, tags, and custom attributes from one page, without navigating away for every action. Free can create, rename, and delete Categories, Tags, and Brands; Attributes and their terms are read-only.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Safe Deletion<\/strong> - Smart warnings before deleting attributes or values that are actively used in product variations, showing affected product names.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Attribute Management (Pro)<\/strong> - Create, rename, and delete global attributes and their terms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Import \/ Export<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>CSV Export<\/strong> - Export your filtered product set to CSV. No row cap.<\/li>\n<li><strong>CSV Import (Pro)<\/strong> - Wizard-driven import with column mapping, ACF field support, image downloading, batch resume after errors, and per-row warnings for unresolved tax\/shipping classes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Integrations<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>WP Sheet Editor<\/strong> - Open your filtered product set directly in WP Sheet Editor with one click.<\/li>\n<li><strong>ACF<\/strong> - Compatible with Advanced Custom Fields (read-only in Free; <strong>Pro<\/strong> adds write support).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Price Per Unit Pro (Pro)<\/strong> - Edit price-per-unit fields from within CataLord.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quantity Manager (Pro)<\/strong> - Edit quantity rules from within CataLord.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Free vs Pro<\/h4>\n\n<p>CataLord is free to install and use, with no per-batch caps on the day-to-day tools. A Pro upgrade unlocks advanced paradigms that the free tier intentionally doesn't try to be.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Free tier includes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Full single-product editor - pricing, stock, images, categories, tags, brands, variations, scheduling<\/li>\n<li>Quick Edit with title, status, price, sale price, stock, SKU, shipping class, scheduling, brand, category, and tags<\/li>\n<li>Full Variant Builder - unlimited attribute dimensions (Color x Size x Material), \"Any\" pattern, auto-inheritance from the closest existing variant<\/li>\n<li>Inline management of existing variations - price, stock, SKU, image<\/li>\n<li>Bulk actions (Trash \/ Restore \/ Delete) - no per-batch cap<\/li>\n<li>Bulk Edit modal - no per-batch cap<\/li>\n<li>CSV Export - no row cap<\/li>\n<li>Upsells \/ Cross-sells editing on the single-product editor<\/li>\n<li>Create, rename, and delete Categories, Tags, and Brands; read-only browsing of Attributes and their terms<\/li>\n<li>AI product description generation (BYOK - bring your own Gemini API key)<\/li>\n<li>Smart Attributes block - category-aware attribute suggestions and instant attribute search<\/li>\n<li>SEO title and meta description display (Yoast SEO \/ Rank Math)<\/li>\n<li>Ctrl+S to save<\/li>\n<li>Read-only display of ACF custom fields and integrations data<\/li>\n<li>Full Hebrew \/ RTL support<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><strong>Pro unlocks:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sheet Mode<\/strong> - spreadsheet-style bulk editing of all product fields, including adding new products as rows<\/li>\n<li><strong>CSV Import<\/strong> with column-mapping wizard, batch resume, image download, ACF support<\/li>\n<li><strong>AI Product Enrichment<\/strong> - complete a product's name, descriptions, categories, brand, tags, attributes and SEO fields with AI, in the editor and during CSV import<\/li>\n<li><strong>SEO field editing<\/strong> - edit Yoast SEO \/ Rank Math title and meta description in place, with AI fill<\/li>\n<li><strong>Drag-to-reorder variants<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>AI image editing<\/strong> - transform product images with natural-language instructions<\/li>\n<li><strong>Custom AI prompts<\/strong> - save your own description-generation templates<\/li>\n<li><strong>Attribute management<\/strong> - create, edit, delete attributes and their terms<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paste an image from the clipboard or from an image address<\/strong> with automatic WebP conversion, square crop, and resize on paste<\/li>\n<li><strong>ACF custom field editing<\/strong> (read + write)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bulk Upsells &amp; Cross-sells editing<\/strong> across many products at once from the product list<\/li>\n<li><strong>Total Sales column<\/strong> with click-to-sort<\/li>\n<li><strong>Deep integrations<\/strong> - edit Price Per Unit Pro fields and Quantity Manager rules from within CataLord<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>For the latest pricing and purchase link, see the CataLord plugin page.<\/p>\n\n<h4>What CataLord Doesn't Cover (Yet)<\/h4>\n\n<p>CataLord is focused on simplifying the most common product-management tasks. Some WooCommerce features aren't (yet) exposed in our interface - for those, the standard WooCommerce editor remains fully available side-by-side with CataLord:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Grouped products<\/strong> - the Grouped product type isn't (yet) editable in CataLord (Simple, Variable, External\/Affiliate, Virtual, and Downloadable are all supported)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sold-individually flag<\/strong> - the \"limit purchases to 1 per order\" option<\/li>\n<li><strong>Other advanced fields<\/strong> - purchase note, menu order, review-enabled flag, featured flag<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Edit for Variable products<\/strong> - use the full editor for variable products<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>CataLord reads and writes standard WooCommerce data with zero proprietary storage. For any field we don't cover, switching to the native WooCommerce editor preserves everything - no data is hidden, converted, or locked in.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Built for Global Stores<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Full RTL Support<\/strong> - Complete right-to-left layout for Hebrew, Arabic, and other RTL languages.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Translation Ready<\/strong> - Built-in translation system with Hebrew included. Non-Latin characters fully supported throughout.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Why CataLord?<\/h4>\n\n<p>WooCommerce is a powerful e-commerce engine, but its product management interface was built for simplicity, not speed. As your catalog grows, the default editor becomes a bottleneck - too many clicks, too many page loads, too many tabs.<\/p>\n\n<p>CataLord is purpose-built for efficiency. Every feature is designed to reduce clicks, eliminate page reloads, and keep you focused on your products. Whether you manage 10 products or 10,000, CataLord makes the experience dramatically faster and more pleasant.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Requirements<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>WordPress 6.5 or higher<\/li>\n<li>WooCommerce 9.9 or higher<\/li>\n<li>PHP 7.4 or higher<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Privacy &amp; Third-Party Services<\/h4>\n\n<p>CataLord runs entirely in your WordPress admin and stores all product data in your own WooCommerce tables - nothing proprietary. The plugin does, however, communicate with a small number of optional third-party services. Each is described below so you can decide what fits your privacy policy. None of them is contacted on a fresh install until you take an explicit action.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><p><strong>Freemius (license \/ update infrastructure)<\/strong> - CataLord uses the Freemius SDK to handle plugin updates, optional opt-in usage diagnostics, and Pro license checks. Opt-in diagnostics are <strong>off by default<\/strong>; you choose whether to share them when activating the plugin. License-related calls only happen for users who purchase Pro. Endpoints: <code>api.freemius.com<\/code>, checkout\/pricing pages on <code>checkout.freemius.com<\/code>. See <a href=\"https:\/\/freemius.com\/privacy\/\">Freemius Privacy Policy<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/freemius.com\/terms\/\">Terms<\/a>.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p><strong>Google Gemini API (optional AI features)<\/strong> - The AI product-description generator is included in the free plugin; AI Product Enrichment and AI image editing are part of Pro. Both require <strong>your own Google Gemini API key<\/strong> (BYOK), which you save in the CataLord settings. When you generate or edit content, the plugin sends your prompt and the relevant product text or image bytes directly from your site to <code>generativelanguage.googleapis.com<\/code> using your key. When AI Product Enrichment needs facts the product does not hold, it asks Gemini to use its own Grounding with Google Search tool - the search runs inside Google's API under your key, and CataLord itself never retrieves third-party pages. CataLord does not proxy, log, or retain this data. If you do not enter a Gemini API key, no calls are made. See <a href=\"https:\/\/ai.google.dev\/gemini-api\/terms\">Google Gemini Terms<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy\">Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p><strong>Remote image downloads (Pro CSV import)<\/strong> - When your CSV maps an image URL column, your server downloads each of those files from the addresses in your own file. Nothing is requested unless you supply the address yourself.<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>The plugin makes <strong>no other outbound HTTP calls<\/strong> - no analytics, no tracking pixels, no third-party fonts (Roboto Slab, Noto Sans Hebrew and Google Sans are all bundled locally in <code>assets\/fonts\/<\/code>), no remote code execution.<\/p>\n\n<p>Bundled JavaScript libraries: DOMPurify 3.4.13 (Cure53) ships as <code>assets\/purify.min.js<\/code> under the Apache License 2.0 and the Mozilla Public License 2.0 - MPL-2.0 is GPLv2-compatible, so the bundle is GPL-compatible under WordPress's own licence. No other third-party JavaScript is bundled, and nothing is loaded from a CDN.<\/p>\n\n<p>Bundled font licences: Google Sans and Noto Sans Hebrew are under the SIL Open Font License 1.1. Roboto Slab 2.002 is under the Apache License 2.0 - its full text ships as <code>assets\/fonts\/LICENSE-Apache-2.0.txt<\/code>, as that licence requires. Per-file details are in <code>assets\/fonts\/LICENSE.txt<\/code>. Apache-2.0 is GPLv3-compatible and WordPress is \"GPLv2 or later\", so all bundled assets are GPL-compatible.<\/p>\n\n<h4>What is written to your logs<\/h4>\n\n<p>CataLord writes diagnostic entries through WooCommerce's own logger. Any address it records is written <strong>without its query string or fragment<\/strong> (<code>https:\/\/example.com\/product\/thing?\u2026<\/code>), so signed URLs, session identifiers and affiliate tokens never land in a log file or a support bundle.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Trademarks<\/h4>\n\n<p>CataLord is an independent plugin and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Automattic, WooCommerce, Woo, Google, Gemini, Yoast, Rank Math, Advanced Custom Fields, WP Sheet Editor, Price Per Unit Pro, or Quantity Manager.

These features are optional - everything else works without any API key.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"is%20it%20rtl%20compatible%3F\"><h3>Is it RTL compatible?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Yes. CataLord fully supports right-to-left languages including Hebrew, with proper layout mirroring, translated UI, and full non-Latin character support throughout.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"can%20i%20use%20it%20alongside%20the%20default%20woocommerce%20editor%3F\"><h3>Can I use it alongside the default WooCommerce editor?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Absolutely. CataLord doesn't disable or modify the default editor. You can use whichever interface you prefer for any given task.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"what%27s%20the%20difference%20between%20free%20and%20pro%3F\"><h3>What's the difference between Free and Pro?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>The Free tier is fully functional for day-to-day product management at any catalog size: full single-product editor, the full Variant Builder, extended Quick Edit (brand \/ category \/ tags inline), upsells &amp; cross-sells, and uncapped bulk actions \/ bulk edit \/ CSV export. Pro unlocks advanced paradigms that the Free tier intentionally doesn't try to be: Sheet Mode (spreadsheet-style editing, including adding new products as rows), CSV Import wizard, AI Product Enrichment, AI image editing, SEO field editing, ACF write support, Attribute Management, paste an image from the clipboard or an image address, integrations (Price Per Unit Pro, Quantity Manager), and more. See the \"Free vs Pro\" section above for the full breakdown.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"why%20can%27t%20i%20edit%20field%20x%20in%20catalord%3F\"><h3>Why can't I edit field X in CataLord?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>CataLord focuses on the product management workflows that matter most to typical store managers. A small number of advanced fields and one product type (Grouped) aren't (yet) in our editor. For those, you can use the standard WooCommerce editor alongside CataLord - your data stays in standard WooCommerce format either way. See \"What CataLord Doesn't Cover (Yet)\" for the current list. We're actively adding missing fields.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"does%20the%20ai%20feature%20cost%20money%3F\"><h3>Does the AI feature cost money?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>CataLord's AI features use your own Google Gemini API key (BYOK - bring your own key). Google provides a generous free tier for Gemini. We don't charge for AI usage and we don't proxy your data - the plugin calls Google's API directly from your site.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"will%20it%20work%20if%20my%20host%20disables%20wp-cron%3F\"><h3>Will it work if my host disables WP-Cron?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Yes for everything users interact with directly - page loads, saves, imports, AI calls. The only thing that depends on WP-Cron is a small daily cleanup task that removes leftover temporary CSV files from the uploads folder. If your host has set <code>DISABLE_WP_CRON<\/code> and you have not configured a system cron to call <code>wp-cron.php<\/code>, you can either run <code>wp cron event run catalord_daily_cleanup<\/code> once a day via WP-CLI, or simply ignore it - the temp files are small and harmless.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n<!--section=changelog-->\n<p>Only the most recent releases are listed here, to stay inside the readme size\nlimit WordPress.org applies to this section.<\/p>\n\n<h4>15.7.20<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Improvement: attribute values proposed by the AI (Fill with AI, CSV enrichment) are single values. A combined value such as \"Blue and Green\" or \"Aluminium, Stainless steel\" is taken apart, each part selects the matching existing value, and only a part the store does not have yet is offered as a new value. Dimensions, ranges and values that exist in the store as one value stay whole.<\/li>\n<li>The plugin's WordPress.org readme describes AI Product Enrichment, Smart Attributes, SEO fields and keyboard shortcuts; earlier changelog entries live in changelog.txt.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>15.7.19<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Fix: in Sheet Mode a column keeps its width until you resize it. Adding a column, reordering columns or reloading no longer widens the other columns, resizing one column stores only that column, and the Edit and Status columns fit their content in every language.<\/li>\n<li>Fix: a SKU can move inside one save. When the main product gets a new SKU and its previous SKU goes to one of its variations, when a SKU moves from one variation to another, or when a product goes back to a simple product and takes the SKU of one of its variations, the save goes through instead of reporting the SKU as taken.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>15.7.18<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>New: the product search on the products page and in the editor marks results that are not published (draft, pending review, scheduled, private) with a status label under the SKU.<\/li>\n<li>Fix: in the Attributes block, the attribute search lists only attributes the product does not have yet, a picked attribute opens on its full value list, and values accepted from AI suggestions appear selected in their attribute right away.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>15.7.17<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Improvement: the built-in AI writing prompt is rewritten. Descriptions now follow a fixed structure (heading, two to four paragraphs, a Key features list with merged facts), keep to verified facts in metric units, avoid sales language and AI cliches, use the established term of the output language instead of a translation with the original in brackets, and keep mixed Hebrew and Latin text readable. The same voice is used by Fill with AI and product-page import.<\/li>\n<li>Improvement: product names proposed by Fill with AI and product-page import follow one template: product type, brand (transliterated first when the language has an accepted form, then the official name), exact model, then a short natural phrase with the key features instead of a comma list.<\/li>\n<li>New: the Price per unit block works with the WooDonkey runtime plugin as well. The plugin is detected automatically and is preferred over Price Per Unit Pro when both are installed.<\/li>\n<li>Fix: when the AI answers Fill with AI with data the plugin cannot read, the request is repaired or asked once more, whatever can be recovered is kept, and the editor says what is missing.<\/li>\n<li>Improvement: category names proposed by the AI are matched to the store's categories word by word, so a singular or plural form finds its category, several fitting subcategories resolve to their parent, and a look-alike name in another language no longer wins. The AI now sees the full category path and returns it verbatim.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Earlier versions are listed in changelog.txt, shipped with the plugin.<\/p>","raw_excerpt":"A modern, single-screen product editor for WooCommerce.
