WordPress Users – Copy Billing Company to Shipping Company

Sometimes, users provide their billing company information only, and that makes it difficult to find the details on where we need to send the products they order. Something we can do to solve that problem is copying the information from the billing company section to the shipping company section. However, when we have thousands of user-profiles to edit, it can be something really tedious.

That’s why in this tutorial, we want to show you how to copy billing company to shipping company in thousands of user-profiles in less than five minutes. You just need to follow these simple steps.

3- Filter the user profiles you’ll edit

Probably, you won’t need to edit all your users, so you can select the users missing shipping company only. For that, you just need to select the I want to search rows to update option in the Select the rows that you want to update dropdown.

You’ll see that you can select your users by role and combine it with the fact that they don’t have a shipping company. Of course, this is optional.

To find all users without shipping company, you need to tick the Enable advanced filters checkbox and select these values.
