Last updated on January 13, 2023 @ 2:01 pm

When you first set up a WooCommerce store, you probably won’t have too many products or categories. As your store grows, though, you might find yourself with hundreds or even thousands of products and categories. If you ever need to move your store to a new platform or make a backup, you’ll need to know how to export your categories.

Fortunately, WooCommerce makes it easy to export your categories. Just follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your WordPress site and go to your Dashboard.
  2. Hover over the WooCommerce menu item and click on Products.
  3. On the Products page, click on the Categories tab.
  4. Above the list of categories, click on the Export button.
  5. A new window will open up with some options for how you want to export your categories.You can choose to export all categories, or just selected ones. You can also choose the format for the export file (CSV or XML). When you’re finished making your selections, click on the “Export” button.
  6. Your browser will start downloading the export file.

That’s all there is to exporting categories in WooCommerce! Just follow these simple steps and you’ll have a backup of all your categories in no time.
