## Description

**Bulk Meta Fields Update** is a secure WordPress plugin that allows administrators
to import or update custom meta fields in bulk via CSV upload. Perfect for content
managers, developers, and SEO experts who need to manage metadata across multiple
posts efficiently.

#### Key Features

 * **Bulk Meta Updates** – Update hundreds of posts at once via CSV upload
 * **Flexible Identification** – Use either Post URLs or Post IDs to identify posts
 * **Custom Post Type Support** – Works with all public custom post types
 * **Security First** – Built with WordPress security best practices including nonce
   verification
 * **Detailed Logging** – Tracks all changes with username and timestamp
 * **Easy to Use** – Simple admin interface under Tools menu
 * **Sample CSV Included** – Download a sample file to get started quickly

#### Use Cases

 * Add SEO meta fields to multiple posts
 * Update custom fields for WooCommerce products
 * Import metadata from external systems
 * Batch update ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) values
 * Manage post metadata for custom post types

#### CSV Format

Your CSV file should have 2 columns (no headers needed):

**Column 1:** Post URL or Post ID
 **Column 2:** Meta field value

Example using URLs:

    ```
    https://example.com/sample-post,Value A
    https://example.com/another-post,Value B
    ```

Example using IDs:

    ```
    123,Value A
    456,Value B
    ```

#### Security Features

 * Capability checks – Only administrators can use this tool
 * Nonce verification – Protects against CSRF attacks
 * File type validation – Only CSV files are accepted
 * File size limits – Maximum 2MB upload size
 * Input sanitization – All data is properly sanitized
 * Protected logs – Log files are secured with .htaccess

#### Logging

Every CSV upload is logged with:
 * WordPress username * Post ID * Meta key * Meta
value * Timestamp

Logs are stored securely in `/wp-content/plugins/bulk-meta-fields-update/logs/upload-
log.csv`

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/bulk-meta-fields-update/` or install
    via the WordPress plugin installer
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Navigate to **Tools > Bulk Meta Fields Update**
 4. Select your post type, enter the meta field key, and upload your CSV file

## FAQ

### Can I use this with custom post types?

Yes! The plugin works with all public custom post types, including WooCommerce products,
portfolio items, events, and more. Only the Media/Attachment post type is excluded.

### What if the meta field doesn’t exist yet?

The plugin will create the meta field automatically when you upload your CSV.

### Will existing meta values be overwritten?

Yes. If a post already has a value for the specified meta key, it will be updated
with the new value from your CSV.

### What’s the maximum file size for CSV uploads?

The plugin limits CSV files to 2MB. For larger datasets, split your CSV into multiple
smaller files.

### Can I undo changes after uploading?

The plugin doesn’t have a built-in undo feature, but all changes are logged. We 
recommend backing up your database before performing bulk updates.

### Where are the logs stored?

Logs are stored in `/wp-content/plugins/bulk-meta-fields-update/logs/upload-log.
csv` and are protected from direct access via .htaccess.

### Does this work with ACF (Advanced Custom Fields)?

Yes! ACF stores field values as post meta, so you can update ACF fields using their
meta key names.

### What happens if a post URL or ID in my CSV doesn’t exist?

The plugin will skip that row and display an error message after processing. Valid
rows will still be processed.

### Can regular users (non-admins) use this plugin?

No. Only users with the ‘manage_options’ capability (typically administrators) can
access this tool.
