Want to know who published a WooCommerce product or who last edited it? This plugin displays the publisher, last editor, and edit date directly in the Products overview table.
Product Publisher Info for WooCommerce adds a Publisher column to the WooCommerce products overview page.
The column shows:
- PB: the original product author (publisher)
- LT: the last user who edited the product followed by the edit date
This helps store owners and teams track product publishing and editing activity directly from the Products list.
The column is hidden by default and can be enabled through the Screen Options tab.
Features:
- Displays Publisher information in a compact stacked format
- Shows PB (publisher) and LT (last editor + date)
- Designed to fit within the default WooCommerce table layout
- Column is hidden by default and can be enabled per user
- Fully admin-only, no impact on frontend performance
- Database-safe: does not create new tables or modify data
- Lightweight: minimal memory usage and performance impact
Example column display:
PB: John
LT: Mike 2026-03-16
Note: The “LT” value relies on the WordPress _edit_last meta field. It may not update if edits are made via CSV imports, REST API requests, or certain bulk editing tools.
