Create, edit, disable, and delete WooCommerce variations in bulk from one clear workspace.

== Description ==

VariaPilot helps store managers handle variable products without opening every product one by one.

Choose the products, select from one to four global attributes, enter the combinations to target, and preview the operation before it runs.

= Main features =

* Create missing variation combinations in bulk.
* Modify existing variations without overwriting fields left blank.
* Disable matching variations.
* Permanently delete matching variations after confirmation.
* Select products by category, product tags, or product name.
* Use between one and four global WooCommerce attributes.
* Manage regular price, description, weight, dimensions, publication status, stock, backorders, and shipping class.
* Preview the number of products and variations affected.
* Process large operations in batches.
* Undo variations created by the latest recoverable creation operation.
* Built-in guidance explains every step directly in the interface.

VariaPilot does not send store or product data to an external service. Its operations run within your WordPress and WooCommerce installation.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin through **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin**, or install it from the WordPress.org directory.
2. Activate VariaPilot for WooCommerce.
3. Make sure WooCommerce is active.
4. Create any required global attributes under **Products > Attributes**.
5. Open **Products > VariaPilot**.

Always make a database backup before a large modification or permanent deletion.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does VariaPilot require WooCommerce? =

Yes. WooCommerce must be installed and active.

= Can I use only one attribute? =

Yes. You can select between one and four global WooCommerce attributes.

= Does a modification replace every variation field? =

No. During a modification, only completed fields are changed. Blank fields keep their existing values.

= Can I select products without knowing their IDs? =

Yes. Products can be selected by category, product tags, or by searching their names.

= Are weight and dimensions required? =

No. They are optional.

= Can I undo an operation? =

Newly created variations from the latest recoverable creation operation can be removed with the undo function. Modifications and permanent deletions cannot be undone, so create a database backup first.

No. VariaPilot performs its product and variation operations locally in WordPress.
