What is the WooCommerce all products list plugin?

You can list all products in a table using the WooCommerce Product Table plugin. This popular all products list plugin for WooCommerce takes the products already in your WooCommerce store, and automatically lists them all in a flexible table layout.

The plugin has over 50 options, which let you configure your all products tables to your exact requirements. Here are some of the main plugin features to list all WooCommerce products in a table:

  • Choose your table columns The product list plugin supports all the standard WooCommerce product data. Each piece of data (product information) can be listed as a separate column in the all products list. You can keep it simple and just list all your WooCommerce products with a column for the product title and nothing else. Or if you prefer, you can add extra columns for other product data (or "Free Download" links), and even extra columns for WooCommerce custom fields and taxonomies. This makes it a very powerful way of listing all your e-commerce products.
  • One-page order form option If you just want to list all products for information purposes, that’s fine. You can create a basic WooCommerce list view, either with links to the single product page where people can purchase or with no links at all. Alternatively, you can include an add to cart column in the list of products. After adding products to cart, customers can proceed straight to checkout. This column converts your product list into a fully-fledged WooCommerce order form, complete with variation dropdowns, add to cart buttons and quantity arrows.

More features

  • Let customers search and filter the all products table - If you have a large product inventory, then you’ll want to add extra controls to help customers find specific products. WooCommerce Product Table comes with an optional search box. You can also add filter dropdowns above the list and/or sidebar filter widgets. Customers can click column headers to re-order the list in real-time. This makes it quicker to find products. Or for even more advanced filtering, install the WooCommerce Product Filters plugin.
  • Set the order of the all products list - By default, the plugin lists all WooCommerce products with the most recent first. You can change this and order in other ways, e.g. alphabetically. This is AJAX-based so it will appear to happen in real-time.
  • Choose pagination styles and how many products to list per page - Your WooCommerce product table will list all products on one page, but that doesn’t mean that you want them all visible at once! Control how many rows of products to show on each page of the table. Choose from 4 pagination styles to display page numbers and previous/next buttons.
  • List unlimited products - With a one-page product list plugin, you’re potentially loading far more data at a time than the default WooCommere layout. WooCommerce Product Table makes this possible as it has a lazy load option. By activating lazy load, the table loads 1 page of products at a time. This keeps it loading quickly, even if you display hundreds or thousands of products.
  • Choose whether to include images - Some products sell best with big images, others with small images, and others with no product images at all. You can do any of this with WooCommerce Product Table.
  • WooCommerce Product Table Quick View Magnifying GlassOptional quick view - WooCommerce Product Table has a sister plugin, WooCommerce Quick View Pro. Use both plugins together to add 'Quick View' buttons to your list of products. Customers can use these to view extra product data and images in a lightbox, without having to visit the single product page. Once they're done, they can proceed to checkout.
