8,402 PointsCan you create a plugin that changes custom fields of a certain WooCommerce product?
I have WooCommerce products with a custom field that matches a category.
The products are actually virtual courses. The course content are posts organized by category. The category matches the product.
So for example, one Product is called Foo Course. When someone buys it, they get access to the posts in Foo category. The posts in this category are the course content for the Foo Course.
I want to create a plugin that lists all the products and then it has a dropdown menu where I can choose a category for each product. Then, when I click update, the product's custom field is changed to the category ID of the category I chose in the dropdown menu.
Is this possible? And is this a standard way of doing these actions or is there a better way? Thanks.
