To export your product catalog, use the Products section of Export Products, Orders & Customers for WooCommerce. You choose which fields to include, order them, and download the result as CSV or XML. This guide covers the full flow.
Step 1: open the product export settings #
- Go to WPFactory > Export (also reachable at WooCommerce > Settings > Export).
- Open the Products section.
Step 2: choose and order your fields #
- In the Export Products Fields list on the left, select the fields you want. Hold Control to select several, or Control + A to select all.
- Click >> to move them into the sortable list on the right, then drag them into the order you want the columns to appear.
- Click Save changes. You must save before previewing or exporting.
The stored field selection is alg_export_products_fields and the drag order is saved to alg_export_products_fields_sorted. Both are free.
Step 3: preview or export #
Unlike some other sections, the Products section has its own buttons, so you do not need to leave this screen:
- Preview shows a small sample (the first few rows) so you can check the columns.
- Export generates the full file. The format follows the Download File Type option (
alg_export_products_fields_file_type, default CSV; the other choice is XML).
Optional: extra product controls #
| Setting | Option ID | Default | Free/Pro |
|---|---|---|---|
| Export Product Attribute (shown when “Product Attributes” is selected) | alg_export_products_attribute |
none | Free |
| Variation Product on a New Row | alg_export_products_variation_newline |
No | Free |
| Additional Export Products Meta Fields (count) | alg_export_products_fields_additional_total_number |
1 | Free (max 1), Pro (unlimited) |
The additional meta fields let you add columns from custom fields (product meta keys). The free version allows one; Pro removes the limit. See the “Add custom meta field columns” how-to for the full flow.
Optional: filter by date #
The Export Products Filter Options block adds a Date Filter (alg_export_products_fields_date_filter) with presets from Today and Yesterday through Last 36 months, plus a Custom Date Range. Leave it on All time to export the whole catalog.
Get more control #
Product export is free. Export Products, Orders & Customers for WooCommerce Pro lets you add unlimited custom meta-field columns to every product export. See what Pro unlocks.
