Hello Chris
Product URL is for type for products: External
ok thanks, is there any possibility to change the product url then?
thanks,
chris
Hello Chris
Yes, for external products only: https://share.pluginus.net/image/i20251124122015.png
The Product URL field in WooCommerce is only available and editable for External/Affiliate products - this is how WooCommerce works by default.
For regular products (Simple, Variable, etc.), WooCommerce doesn't provide this field because these products are sold directly on your site. The product URL is automatically generated based on your permalink settings and the product slug.
The Product URL field you see in the WooCommerce interface appears only when:
You set the product type to"External/Affiliate product". Then the"Product URL" field becomes visible where you can enter an external link
You can see this behavior explained in the official WooCommerce documentation here: https://woo.com/document/managing-products/#external-affiliate-product
If you need to modify the product's page URL (permalink) for regular products, you can do this by:
- Editing the product
- Changing the product slug in the permalink section at the top of the page
- Or going to the product's permalink settings
Is there something specific you're trying to achieve with product URLs? I'd be happy to help you find the right solution.
ok no worries, sometimes i have to change the URL manually for different reasons but its not a big deal.
thanks in advance,
chris
Hello Chris
If you for any case need do this as custom business logic you can add code here: https://share.pluginus.net/image/i20251125123303.png -> wp-content\plugins\woo-bulk-editor\data\fields.php - to fiels 'allow_product_types' add another products types you need: simple, variable, grouped
Also you can do it in file functions.php of the current wp theme using hook woobe_extend_fields
