WooCommerce compatibility
TestedTested on a store with 200 real products in four categories, with seven other plugins active at the same time. The product image and product gallery pickers show the folder tree. CSV import matches image URLs to files already in the library instead of uploading them again. Bulk edit and export leave folders alone.

| M23 | Import products from a CSV that lists image URLs already in the Media Library. The images are matched to the existing files; nothing is uploaded twice. | Passed |
| M25 | Bulk edit several products from the product list. Folder assignments are untouched (the bulk edit panel has no media field). | Passed |
| M27 | Export all products, then bulk edit several of them. Folder assignments are the same afterwards. | Passed |
| SC4 | Sort the images of 200 products into 4 category folders. Every product page still loads with its images; opening a folder takes about two seconds. | Passed |
| M26 | Add a file to a downloadable product through its file picker (August run). The picker shows the folder tree and the chosen file’s real URL is saved. | Passed |
| PK6.3 | Click Add product gallery images, open a folder and pick two files. Both end up in the product gallery. | Passed |
Watch the checkHow we checked. On the same product clicked Add product gallery images, opened Store Assets → Product Images, selected two photos with Ctrl and clicked Add to gallery. What you see. Two files selected inside one folder, the Add to gallery button, and both thumbnails in the Product gallery box afterwards.

Known limitations
- WooCommerce keeps the CSV file you import in the Media Library. That is WooCommerce’s doing, not ours; the file lands in Uncategorized like any other upload.
Test setup
- Install and activate Plathix. There is no WooCommerce setting to turn on.
- Optional: create one folder per product category, then select the products’ images in the Media Library and drag them into those folders. A folder change does not move the file on disk or change its attachment ID, so existing product images keep their media location.
Retest
Repeated on every Plathix release and on each WooCommerce major release.
