DawsonyWeb

Catalog Ops audits your entire WooCommerce product catalog in one click and surfaces the data-quality issues that silently hurt conversions, search rankings, and ad-feed accuracy.
Instead of clicking through hundreds of product editors, you get a single sortable, searchable issues list with inline tools to resolve problems on the spot.
<h4>What It Audits</h4>
<ul>
<li>Missing SKU — products without a SKU assigned.</li>
<li>Duplicate SKU — two or more products sharing the same SKU.</li>
<li>Zero or missing price — products with no regular price set.</li>
<li>Missing weight — physical products without a shipping weight.</li>
<li>Empty description — products with a blank full description.</li>
<li>Empty short description — products with a blank excerpt / short description.</li>
<li>Missing featured image — products without a product image.</li>
<li>Orphaned variations — variation products whose parent no longer exists.</li>
</ul>
Audits are aware of product types: variable and grouped parent products are correctly skipped for checks that only apply to simple or variation products.
<h4>Fix Issues Directly</h4>
Click Fix on any issue to open a quick-fix modal. Depending on the issue type you can:
<ul>
<li>Enter a new SKU, price, or weight.</li>
<li>Write or paste a description (with full rich-text support).</li>
<li>Select a featured image from the media library.</li>
</ul>
The product is updated and the issue is marked resolved, all without navigating away.
<h4>CSV Export and Import</h4>
<ul>
<li>Export your open issues to a CSV file for review in a spreadsheet.</li>
<li>Add a <code>fix_value</code> column, fill in corrections, and import the CSV back to apply fixes in bulk.</li>
</ul>
Ideal for stores with large catalogs where dozens of products need the same kind of fix.
<h4>Persistent Resolutions</h4>
Issues you resolve or ignore stay that way. Future audit runs will not re-flag them. A dedicated Resolved & Ignored sub-tab lets you review past decisions and reopen any item if needed.
<h4>Search, Filter, and Paginate</h4>
<ul>
<li>Search by product name, SKU, or product ID.</li>
<li>Filter by issue type.</li>
<li>All parameters persist correctly across pagination — you never lose your place.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Additional Details</h4>
<ul>
<li>Adds a Catalog Ops top-level menu in WP Admin with a dashboard and an issues list.</li>
<li>Custom capability (<code>dwco_fix_issues</code>) for controlling which roles can apply fixes.</li>
<li>Clean uninstall — all database tables and options are removed when you delete the plugin.</li>
<li>Fully translatable with a <code>dawsonyweb-catalog-ops</code> text domain.</li>
</ul>

DawsonyWeb – Catalog Ops

Audit your WooCommerce catalog for missing SKUs, duplicate SKUs, zero prices, empty descriptions, and more. Fix issues inline.

exatio

Your WooCommerce catalog has data problems you don’t know about. Missing product images, empty descriptions, duplicate SKUs, broken prices, incomplete variations — they silently kill conversions, hurt SEO rankings, and get your products rejected from Google Shopping and Meta Commerce feeds.
Think of it as a product data quality checker for WooCommerce — like a spell-checker, but for your entire catalog. Validate product data before importing to Google Merchant Center, Meta Commerce, or any comparison shopping feed.
Exatio Catalog Audit scans your entire product catalog and shows you exactly what needs fixing — with severity ratings, affected product counts, direct edit links, and step-by-step fix guidance for every issue found.
