Is there any easy quick way to add multiple images to a product category. Im creating categories for regions and so far I have to go through each image one by one and assign it to a product category. Is there not a way to batch this as im dealing with hundreds of images at once that all need to be assigned to the same category?
Also, can I disable pricing and make the download possible for free or with a coupon code?
Thanks,
Hi Ian:
1) You can auto-populate categories by adding the appropriate metadata:

You can do this prior to upload using your favorite editor. Photoshop will do this but I do not know if it does this in bulk.
Here is a sample software that may work for you:

When uploaded, images will automatically be categorized.2) Yes, create a coupon code within WooCommerce that offers a 100% discount. Or you can price the license at 0 and it will be free.
For those that have a fixed set of categories, the advice from this page – https://www.symbiostock.org/docs/reading-writing-metadata/, means that one should write to SupplementalCategory and Category fields of the categories we want to have the image associate with before ingestion?
Yes – so if you have a metadata editor such as Photoshop or RAW, and you pre-populate one of these fields:
‘SupplementalCategories’, ‘SupplementalCategory’ and ‘Category’
It will put the image in a category of that exact name. It is a good idea to test one first to ensure that the category field you are filling is working and being recognized.
