If the Author would consider expanding the plugin to be able to assign a different Author using Products > Bulk Edit. I had to go into several products and reassign a new author one by one. Using the Bulk Edit method would save a lot of time. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/215badab81fa7ca934292fd1a0efff588b30d90e317b66fc07be272ebef2246a? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very good](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-good-4108/)󠁿 [Chekki](https://profiles.wordpress.org/chekki/) August 30, 2019 1 reply I like it.
