HOW TO EDIT PRODUCTS?

See the detailed information about managing your products in WooCommerce HERE.

Please remember you can’t delete the whole attribute as Color, Size, etc., because plugin will not be able to update such product!

There are also 3 additional sections in Product data that are created by AliDropship Woo plugin:

  • Supplier

Here you can find a general information about product: Product ID, Product URL on AliExpress, Store URL on AliExpress, Store Name on AliExpress.

Use the Reset option if you want to replace a current product with another one (for example, it is out of stock at your current supplier store and you have another supplier store link where this product is available).

Click the Reset button, insert a new link in the Product URL field and click Update Product:

The plugin will reset product variations, stock and pricing. You can also reset descripton if you need (tick on the box in the appropriate option). Product title will not be changed.

  • Update

You can update current product individually using the same filters as you use in bulk update. If you don’t want this product to be updated during the bulk update, go to Product data → Update and tick off the Update Product option:

  • Reviews

Apart from bulk import, you can import reviews for certain products only.

HOW TO PLACE YOUR ORDER?

There are 2 ways to place your orders:

1. Place order automatically

Click Place oder automatically to proceed with processing your order:

The plugin will visit AliExpress and fulfill the order for you automatically: select necessary product variation, add items to your shopping cart and fill your customer’s shipping details on the checkout page.

To complete the purchase, click Confirm & Pay at the bottom of the page. Please note that you need to have AliDropship Chrome Extension installed to be able to use this feature.

2. Place order manually 

To place order manually, go to the order details and click Place order manually:

You will be redirected to AliExpress product page. Log in to your account, choose necessary product variation, click Buy Now and place the order using shipping details of your customer. If you do not have your customer’s phone number, you can enter your own one. To avoid any invoices or marketing materials included in the packages sent to your client, leave an additional comment for AliExpress suppliers: 'We are dropshipping. Please don’t include any promotional materials.' Make sure all the fields are filled and proceed to the payment by clicking Confirm & Pay.
