Last updated on January 23, 2023 @ 12:21 pm

If you’ve ever wondered how to change the featured image in WooCommerce, then you’re in the right place! In this article, we’ll walk you through the process step-by-step.

  1. First things first, you’ll need to log into your WordPress dashboard. Once you’re logged in, hover over the “WooCommerce” tab in the left-hand sidebar and click on “Products. “
  2. On the “Products” page, find the product for which you want to change the featured image and click on its name to edit it.
  3. In the product editor, scroll down to the “Product Image” section.
  4. Here you will see the current featured image for your product, as well as an option to upload a new one.
  5. To upload a new image, click on the “Upload/Add Files” button. This will open the WordPress media library, where you can select or upload the new image you want to use.
  6. Once you’ve selected or uploaded your new image, make sure it’s highlighted and then click on the “Set as featured image” button.
PRO TIP: If you are using WooCommerce to sell products on your WordPress site, you may want to change the featured image for a product from time to time. For example, if you have a seasonal product, you may want to change the image to reflect the season.

Changing the featured image for a product is easy to do, but there are a few things you need to know before you start.

First, when you change the featured image for a product, it will not automatically update on your site. This means that if you have already shared the product page with your customers, they will not see the new image unless they refresh the page.

Second, if you have set up any WooCommerce plugins that use the featured image (such as a zoom plugin), those plugins may not work properly with the new image. This means that you may need to disable or reconfigure those plugins before changing the featured image.

Finally, make sure that the new image you select is the right size and format before uploading it. If it is not, it may cause problems on your site.

Changing the featured image for a WooCommerce product is easy to do, but there are a few things you need to keep in mind before you start.

And that’s it! You’ve successfully changed your product’s featured image in WooCommerce.
