Save and load column profiles are as easy as managing product columns in VBULKiT – Bulk Edit WooCommerce Variations – plugin<\/a> which we discussed in the previous tutorial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you remember from that tutorial we created a new column profile and called it \u201cNew profile<\/strong>\u201d. To make it even easier for you to remember, we are now starting from that section by going to the \u201cColumn manager<\/strong>\u201d tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, you can see the list of column profiles and as it is obvious, \u201cNew profile<\/strong>\u201d is one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want to change the name of this column profile. So, as we discussed in the previous tutorial you can easily click on \u2018Edit<\/strong>\u2019 in front of this profile to see the \u201cEdit column preset<\/strong>\u201d popup as below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Edit<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now, we consider that everything looks great and we just want to change the name of this column profile from \u201cNew profile<\/strong>\u201d to \u201cSave and load column<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is simply possible by removing the previous name from the name bar above the column list and type the new name then click on \u2018Save Changes<\/strong>\u2019 as displayed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Save<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After that, you can see that this column profile has been added to the list of profiles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"this<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Column profiles<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To make VBULKiT – Bulk Edit WooCommerce Variations – plugin display your customized column profile named \u201cSave and load column<\/strong>\u201d in the main toolbar, you have to click on \u2018Column Profile<\/strong>\u2019:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"click<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After clicking on Column Profile<\/strong>, a new page will appear as below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"column<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You can easily open the list in front of \u2018Choose Preset<\/strong>\u2019 and select your created column profile from the dropdown list \u2013This was \u201cSave and load column<\/strong>\u201d in this tutorial- to be displayed in the main page:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Save<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As it is shown in the above picture, By selecting the new profile, you can also see the checkmark next to each item that you have already selected to be displayed as the column of your table in the below form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By clicking on \u2018Apply to Table<\/strong>\u2019, you will be directed to the main page and you can see that your customized columns are now displayed in the product table: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"display<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now, everything is ready for you to Bulk edit any features of your customized product table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, this is not the end of our tutorial, there is more to be discussed about the Column Profile tab. So, stay with us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to manage product columns from column profiles?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To save and load column profiles from \u2018Column profile<\/strong>\u2019 we have to come back to the related page by clicking on \u201cColumn Profile<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we mentioned before all of the profiles created in this plugin are available on this page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, to make the save and load columns easier for store managers, we designed some features on this page which we are now going to get you more familiar with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add or remove column from profile<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As we explained above, after choosing your profile from dropdown list – Save and Load Column for our tutorial – in front of “Choose Preset<\/strong>“, all items you have selected before are shown in the below form as below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"save<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In this form you have 3 ways to add or remove columns in your profile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Select All \/ Unselect all<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you check the checkbox next to \u201cSelect all\/Unselect<\/strong>\u201d, Our plugin will display\/remove all of the columns in your product table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check\/uncheck the preferred column<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

You can check or uncheck any column that you prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Search<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you type your preferred column in the \u2018Search Column<\/strong>\u2019 bar, the related item will be shown and you can easily check or uncheck it without spending time looking for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, you can see in the below picture that we searched \u201cRegular Price\u201d and checked it after the plugin found it for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"search<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Save and load column<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When you make any changes in this page a new item called \u201cSave Changes<\/strong>\u201d will be added at the end of the form including two options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Update selected Profile:<\/strong> all changes will be saved on the previous profile you have already selected.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Save as a new Preset:<\/strong> all changes will be saved on a new profile which is created by the plugin and you can have access to it from the dropdown list in front of Choose preset or Column manager tab.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
