Bulk apply
Bulk apply pushes a template onto every product of a collection or tag in one action — the way to onboard a 200-product catalog in minutes instead of an afternoon.
Running a bulk apply
Section titled “Running a bulk apply”- Go to Products and choose the bulk action Apply a template.
- Pick the template and the target: a collection or a tag.
- Confirm. The app walks through the matching products and applies the template to each.
Behavior guarantees
Section titled “Behavior guarantees”- Existing preview zones are preserved. Products already carrying a zone keep it — bulk apply updates fields, fonts, colors and pricing without flattening the work you did on zones.
- Capped at 250 products per run, and the run is logged. For larger catalogs, narrow the target (per collection) and run several times.
- Products already configured are updated to the template’s setup (zones aside); products never configured get the full template.
- The Free plan limit (1 configured product) makes bulk apply effectively a Pro-plan operation; the app enforces plan limits server-side.
Suggested workflow for a large catalog
Section titled “Suggested workflow for a large catalog”- Group products by personalization pattern (e.g. necklaces: 1 name field, bracelets: initials, 3 chars, uppercase).
- Create one template per pattern.
- Bulk-apply each template to its collection or tag.
- Pass over the bestsellers to draw preview zones — zones are the one thing worth doing product by product.
