Cart Customization PRO

Control global texts for Add to Cart buttons, "Select Options" buttons, and the bulk-list toggle.

• Add to Cart Text: Define a global custom text (e.g., "Buy Now") that will replace the default WooCommerce "Add to Cart" text across all product tables. This can be individually overridden on a per-table basis.
• "Select Options" Button Text: Define a global custom text (e.g., "Select Options") that will replace the default text for buttons that open popups or nested rows. This can be individually overridden on a per-table basis.
• "Add to bulk list" Text Since v1.3.4: Define a global custom text (e.g., "Add to order") for the bulk-select toggle shown on stacked mobile cards, together with the label it switches to once the product is in the list (default "Added"). This can be individually overridden on a per-table basis.

Performance

Clear Cache Since v1.3.5

To keep the filter bar fast, ProductBay remembers which categories and product types each table should offer in its dropdowns, rather than resolving them on every page view.

That list is rebuilt automatically whenever a product is saved, its stock or price changes, its categories change, or a table is edited — so under normal use you never need this button. It is here for the cases automatic invalidation cannot see: products changed directly in the database, an import that bypasses the usual WooCommerce hooks, or a staging-to-live database copy.

• Clear cache: every table rebuilds its filter choices the next time it is viewed.

Nothing is at risk

Only the resolved dropdown choices are cached. Products, prices, and stock are always read live from WooCommerce on every page view and are never cached — so this button cannot change what a table shows, and nothing is deleted.

Uninstall Options

Determine what happens to your data when the ProductBay plugin is deleted from your WordPress site.

• Delete on Uninstall:
  • Enabled: All tables, configurations, and settings will be permanently removed from the database on deletion.
  • Disabled: Plugin data is preserved, allowing you to pick up where you left off if you reinstall later.

Data Permanence

We recommend keeping this Disabled unless you are certain you want to perform a completely clean removal of all ProductBay data.

Clear Data (Reset)

ProductBay includes a master reset tool to restore the plugin to its factory state.

What gets cleared?

1. Tables: All created tables are permanently deleted.
2. Metadata: All configuration data associated with those tables is removed.
3. Settings: All global and default configurations are reset to factory defaults.
4. Onboarding: The "Welcome Wizard" state is reset, and it will appear again on the next visit.

Irreversible Action

Resetting data is permanent and cannot be undone. Always ensure you have a database backup before performing a full reset.
