This is the best Automatic Product Categories plugin for WooCommerce that I’ve found on the market! It brings WooCommerce much closer to Shopify’s collection organization. I manage around 300 product categories (and counting), so finding the right category in the „Categories/Tags to Add/Remove“ list can be a bit challenging. Additionally, it would be great if the „Conditions“ column included an option to add an „Or“ condition. I’d love to see these improvements in a future update. Keep up the great work!

Probably the closest thing I’ve seen to bringing the power of Shopify’s collections to Woocommerce. Bulk editors are okay but once catalogues get very large, even they will struggle. Look forward to seeing this develop further!
