bulk edit plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Example of change product settings<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before going to the bulk edit form and changing multi product settings, we need to filter those products that need to be bulk edited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we mentioned in previous tutorials, there are two ways for filtering products:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Using filter form<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Using Quick Search box<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As we want to make changes on those products with Regular Price from $20 to $150, using filter form is the better way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, as shown below, filtering the custom product according the mentioned condition is possible as following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the \u201c<strong>Filter Form<\/strong>\u201d.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open the \u201c<strong>Pricing<\/strong>\u201d tab.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Set a range from 20 to 150 in front of regular price.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on \u201c<strong>Get Products<\/strong>\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a

product\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, the filtered products will be display in the product table:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woocommerce-bulk-variation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/03\/16-filtered-products.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\"

the product table\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to make sure that the plugin filtered right product and trace the changes after bulk editing, it is recommended to add the suitable columns to the product table by using column profile which are in this tutorial:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Regular Price: For observing filtering condition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Type.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Downloadable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Virtual.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Download limit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Download expiry.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure

class=\"wp-image-1017\" width=\"1200\" height=\"602\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>By selecting those columns and clicking on \u201c<strong>Save Changes<\/strong>\u201d, the product table displayed as below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woocommerce-bulk-variation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/03\/16-result.jpg\"><img

result\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, everything is ready to change multi product settings as we set as below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Product Type:<\/strong> Variable Product<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Featured:<\/strong> Yes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Virtual:<\/strong> No<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Downloadable:<\/strong> Yes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Download
