How to Change Product Pricing in WooCommerce

Simple Products:

  1. Login to Your WordPress Dashboard:
    • Go to your website’s login URL, usually: http://yourwebsite.com/wp-login.php
    • Enter your username and password to access the dashboard.
  2. Access the Products Section:
    • On the left-hand side, hover over or click on ‘Products’ to see the products you have listed.
  3. Choose the Product:
    • Browse or search for the product you want to edit.
    • Click on the product’s name to open the product editing screen.
  4. Edit Product Pricing:
    • Scroll down to the ‘Product Data’ section (you’ll see tabs like General, Inventory, Shipping, etc.).
    • Click on the ‘General’ tab.
    • Here, you’ll see two price fields: ‘Regular Price’ and ‘Sale Price’.
      • Regular Price: This is the product’s normal price.
      • Sale Price: If you’re offering a discount, you can set a reduced price here.
    • Edit the prices as needed.
  5. Save Changes:
    • Once you’ve adjusted the prices, click the ‘Update’ button on the top right side to save your changes.

Variable Products:

  1. Access the Product:
    • As with simple products, go to the ‘Products’ section and select the variable product you want to edit.
  2. Navigate to Product Data:
    • Scroll down to the ‘Product Data’ section and ensure the dropdown is set to ‘Variable product’.
  3. Access Variations:
    • Click on the ‘Variations’ tab within the ‘Product Data’ section.
  4. Choose a Specific Variation:
    • You’ll see a dropdown list of all your variations (like different colors or sizes).
    • To edit the price of a specific variation, select it from the dropdown menu.
  5. Edit Variation Pricing:
    • Once you’ve selected a variation, you’ll see its individual settings.
    • Look for the ‘Regular Price’ and ‘Sale Price’ fields, similar to the simple product process.
    • Adjust the prices as needed.
  6. Save Changes:
    • Remember to click ‘Save changes’ for the variations and then the ‘Update’ button on the top right side for the overall product.

Tips:

  • Bulk Edit: If you need to change the prices for multiple products simultaneously, WooCommerce offers a ‘Bulk Edit’ feature in the main ‘Products’ list.
  • Price Adjustments: Consider using a pricing plugin if you’re looking to set up dynamic pricing rules or discounts based on certain conditions.
  • Backup: Always make sure to have a recent backup of your website before making any major changes. This ensures you can revert back in case of any issues.
