🧩 Why This Happens

When you use Option 1 (semi-automatic fix) and replace Printify’s custom attributes with your global ones:

• The old Printify variations (which had SKUs, prices, and inventory synced) get disconnected.
• WooCommerce now sees your new attributes but no longer recognizes which variation belongs to which Printify SKU.
• That’s why:
  • Price = disappears (variation data lost)
  • Stock = 0 or “Out of stock”
  • Printify fulfillment = broken temporarily

✅ The Fix (And Keep Printify Sync Intact)

You’ll fix it in three short stages:

🩵 STEP 1 — Before Replacing Attributes

When the product first imports from Printify:

1. Go to Product → Variations tab.
2. Export the product (use “Product CSV Exporter” or “All Export” plugin)
   → This keeps a copy of all SKUs, prices, and stock info.
   You’ll need those SKUs later.
