Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Smart Auto SKU Generator for WooCommerce
The SKU format follows this pattern: [2-digit category][2 letters][variable increment] Examples: - Category ID 15 with prefix "XY": 15XY01, 15XY02, 15XY03 - Category ID 8 with prefix "AB": 08AB01, 08AB02, 08AB03 - Category ID 42 with prefix "CD": 42CD01, 42CD02, 42CD03 The format ensures: - Uniqueness: Each SKU is unique across your entire catalog - Organization: Easy to identify product categories - Scalability: Supports thousands of products per category - Readability: Human-readable and searchable format
Yes! You can change the SKU length at any time: Go to WooCommerce → Auto SKU Generator Select new SKU length (6-12 characters) Save settings The plugin will automatically adjust existing plugin-generated SKUs Important Notes: - Only plugin-generated SKUs are automatically updated - Manual SKUs remain unchanged unless "Overwrite Existing" is enabled - Longer SKUs support more products per category - Changes are applied immediately to new products
By default, existing SKUs are protected: Plugin-generated SKUs: Never overwritten automatically Manual SKUs: Preserved unless "Overwrite Existing" is enabled Empty SKU fields: Automatically filled with new SKUs Duplicate detection: Prevents conflicts with existing SKUs To overwrite existing SKUs: 1. Enable "Overwrite Existing SKUs" in settings 2. Run bulk generation 3. All products will get new SKUs
Common causes and solutions: 1. Products without categories: - Assign categories to all products - Check for orphaned products - Use bulk edit to assign categories 2. Duplicate SKUs in database: - Run duplicate detection in settings - Manually resolve conflicts - Use "Overwrite Existing" to regenerate all SKUs 3. Invalid category IDs: - Ensure category IDs are 1-99 (for 2-digit format) - Check for deleted categories - Reassign products to valid categories 4. Database issues: - Check database permissions - Verify WooCommerce tables exist - Enable logging for detailed error information **Configuration Questions**
Yes! You can set custom prefixes for any category: Go to WooCommerce → Auto SKU Generator Click "Show Category Prefixes" Enter custom 2-letter prefixes for each category Leave blank to use automatic prefix (first 2 letters of category name) Examples: - Electronics category: "EL" (instead of "EL") - Clothing category: "CL" (instead of "CL") - Books category: "BK" (instead of "BO")
Compatibility Requirements: - WordPress: 5.0 or higher - PHP: 7.4 or higher - WooCommerce: 4.0 or higher - MySQL: 5.6+ or MariaDB 10.1+ Tested Compatibility: - WordPress: 5.0 - 6.8 - WooCommerce: 4.0 - 8.0 - PHP: 7.4 - 8.3 - Major browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge

No, the plugin is optimized for performance: Performance Features: - Background processing prevents frontend slowdowns - Minimal database queries during normal operation - Caching of frequently accessed data - Optimized algorithms for SKU generation Resource Usage: - Memory: Minimal impact (typically < 5MB) - Database: Efficient queries with proper indexing - CPU: Background processing spreads load - Frontend: No impact on customer-facing pages Best Practices: - Run bulk generation during low-traffic periods - Use background processing for large catalogs - Monitor server resources during initial setup - Enable logging only when troubleshooting
