    Hi,

    I need to import and update daily many woocommerce products.
    As the standard image upload takes too much time, I want to use the file_input instead the featured image.
    How can I do this (I have no coding experience)?
    To create an file_input and show in on single product page its not the case – I want to replace the featured.

    Your plugin is so flexible with so many features that even no coders like me want to build incredible things.
    Thank you for that.

    Hi,

    The field file_input saves the URL of the file while the featured image saves the ID of the image to the database so use the field file_input is impossible. You can follow this topic
    https://metabox.io/support/topic/single-image-field-with-the-id-_thumbnail_id-is-not-showing-after-latest-updates/

    to know how to use other fields such as file, image_upload, single_image ... save the ID of the file upload instead of default Featured image with some piece of code.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi,

    thank you.
    As I have poor coding experience, I think that maybe I will use a plugin.
