Prevent product titles, descriptions & excerpts from being overwritten during Product Set updates

Add custom code

Add the following custom code to your custom plugin:

add_filter( 'dfrpswc_filter_post_array', function ( $post, $product, $set, $action ) {

   if ( 'insert' === $action ) {
      return $post;
   }

   unset( $post['post_title'] );    // Prevent title from being overwritten.
   unset( $post['post_content'] );  // Prevent description from being overwritten.
   unset( $post['post_excerpt'] );  // Prevent excerpt from being overwritten.

   return $post;

}, 50, 4 );
