**What worked well:**
* **Intuitive bulk-editor interface**: Picking a tag filter and choosing “Set text to value” is straightforward.
* **Accurate preview and reporting**: The app clearly shows which SKUs you’ve “edited” and gives confirmation messages.
* **General metafield support**: I could bulk-set other custom fields without issue.
**Where it fell short:**
* **Google Shopping fields not updating**: Although the app reported success, the values never appeared in the **Google Shopping – Custom Label 0/1** metafields.
* **Lack of namespace clarity**: It wasn’t obvious whether “Custom Label 0” referred to Shopify metafields or Google-channel fields, leading to confusion.
* **No visible error**: There’s no warning when a write operation silently fails on the `google_shopping.custom_label_*` namespace.
**Suggested improvements:**
1. **Explicit Google-Shopping field mapping**: Clearly label fields with the full namespace (`google_shopping.custom_label_0`) and surface it in the bulk-editor.
2. **Error reporting**: If a write to a Google-channel metafield fails, show an error or flag it in the preview.
3. **Sample verification**: Offer a “Verify in Google channel” step so I can confirm values made it into Merchant Center fields.
I approved the \$30 plan hoping to streamline Google feed prep, but since custom labels didn’t actually update, it wasn’t usable for our biggest use case. If you can address the above points, I’d be happy to give Ablestar another try!
Thank you for taking the time to review the app, we're glad you found the interface intuitive but sorry that you had issues editing the custom labels in Google Shopping.
The Google Shopping fields like custom labels are stored as Shopify metafields and then synced to Google Merchant Center so they might not appear in GMC right away. We looked through our logs and we do see the metafields being written to, both in the edit you mentioned and in the follow up edits you ran over the next couple days.
If you could reply to the email we sent you can we help you figure out why the data isn't being synced between Shopify and GMC to make sure that you're able to manage your feeds as smoothly as possible.
Best,
Daniel and the Ablestar Team
This app is a lifesaver. We have a very large product catalogue that requires a lot of organization and I have found Ablestar to be the only app that can easily allow me to filter products efficiently and apply required edits.
On top of that, their support team is incredibly quick to respond and help with any questions I've had.
Best app to use saves hours and customer support is always available
great service, use it every day
Straightforward, easy to use, and saves me a ton of time! I used to lose my mind using Shopify's built-in bulk editor.
Great option for quickly editing products in bulk and you can also undo edits very easily.
Very user friendly and has been a great addition to our stack.
This app has saved me so much time! Simply the best and simple to use.
Never fails - being able to reverse price changes at the end of a discount period saves so much time!
it's super fast and easy to use. It's great! I highly recommend it if you have a lot of products to update. A++
