You can add one or multiple AliExpress product links to your own inventory table. It’s like having a warehouse full of products ready for import. #### GOLD MINE OF ALIEXPRESS PRODUCTS If you don’t have a lot of time to search for the best products on AliExpress, Alister will do that for you. You can add your own ‘import rules’ using criteria such as product, seller ratings etc and ask Alister to fill your inventory for example on a weekly basis. This way you will stay on top of the selling trends and never run out of new products in your store. #### LIKE A DIGITAL WAREHOUSE FULL OF STOCK All the product links that you or Alister add automatically, will land in the inventory table. From here you can briefly preview the item and ‘load’ it to the product editor. The best part is that you can select multiple products and they will load to a new tab ‘GROUP’ of products that you can edit simultaneously to be even faster. #### AI GENERATOR FOR THE PRODUCT TITLE AND DESCRIPTION This tool will do the creative writing for you. With the AI generator you can have a new title & description of the product within a few clicks. #### EASY TO USE PRODUCT EDITOR Change the product details, add more images, set the prices and edit the product variations all on one page. There’s even a Translator tool to help you be more efficient with languages when translating product properties. #### PRICE SYNCHRONISATION AND RULES Set up your product price rules (use a multiplier field to multiple AliExpress price i.e. x 2) to be synchronised with AliExpress prices. So if they change the price– it will change accordingly on your website. #### EXPERT SUPPORT Our team is always happy to hear from you and provide incredible support. Ask your questions in the support forum or contact us directly. #### GET STARTED Installation is free, quick, and easy. Alister doesn’t require account creation. #### FEATURES * import one or multiple AliExpress products at once * inventory table with preview of the products * automatic import for products according to your criteria on AliExpress * AI product title generator * AI product description generator * Save your own product description templates for later * Interactive picture gallery with drag and drop feature * Set up your own pricing rules * Automatic price adjustment: for example if a supplier on AliExpress increases their prices, your prices will increase accordingly * Product variations editor * Translate feature for the product properties #### HOW TO USE TO ALISTER (SIMPLIFIED VERSION) 1. Paste one or multiple AliExpress product links and hit ‘add’ button to add the products to the inventory table below. 2. Optional: set up the import rules Firstly, set your own criteria of what kind of products you would like to add to the inventory table. For example, maybe you want to have top ten best rated cat beds imported on a weekly basis (btw this is called polling). Give this rule a name ex.: ‘Top selling cat beds’. Paste the URL to the cat bed category on AliExpress OR search on AliExpress for ‘ cat beds’ and paste the link with the results. Next, decide on a product and seller’s rating (product rating, seller rating) and how many times the item was sold (orders). ‘Limit’ means how many cat beds you would like to import each time and how often (polling). Lastly, set the language, destination and currency of your shop. Hit ‘check’ button to see if your criteria worked according to your expectations( you can click on each product link generated). If so, you can already hit ‘import’ and add those products to the inventory table and also ‘save’ the rule. 1. Load the product or multiple products to the product editor. 2. Add a few properties and generate the title and description. 3. Edit the product description. 4. Choose the images. 5. Set up the pricing rule. 6. Choose the variations you’d like to import. 7. Finally, click import and follow the new permalink to preview your new product online. #### GUIDE ## Screenshots * [[ * Ability to import products by ID/URL or by automated import rules * [[ * Inventory table – lists all products managed by Alister * [[ * Configurable title and description AI generator * [[ * Manage gallery and pricing * [[ * User-friendly UI to modify attributes for variable products * [[ * Store translation pairs and apply them with a click ## Installation * Requires woocommerce plugin to run * Upload plugin files to your plugin directory or install using wordpress plugin store * Once you activate the plugin, you will be able to access it from your admin page sidebar ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/db2ca7ea5997d1eef2a3a48a0a75c27ea1aa4da05d529fda91e83349fb1aeb46? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Super easy to use plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/super-easy-to-use-plugin-2/)󠁿 [lefrycarvajal](https://profiles.wordpress.org/lefrycarvajal/) Me 14, 2023 It is a super easy to use plugin, I’ve got surprised with the capacity that is offered. I can easily build an e-commerce site and sell products, that’s a great innovation for our community. Nice job! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d85209646b3f802d1af910ccca5b62b22855ec16b85293abbb319e07daa00610? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[great plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-36821/)󠁿 [yousufali56](https://profiles.wordpress.org/yousufali56/) Me 11, 2023 I’ve been using the Alister WooCommerce plugin to import products from AliExpress for a few months now, and I’m really happy with it. It’s a very easy-to-use plugin that makes it a breeze to add products to my store. I especially like the fact that I can import products in bulk, which saves me a lot of time. This is a great plugin because it allows me to import products category-wise by putting category links even you don’t need to install any extension. Overall, I’m really happy with the Alister WooCommerce plugin. It’s a great tool for anyone who wants to import products from AliExpress. I would definitely recommend it to others. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9ac98add806033ecfa9f4c17cd83412f2ff31db1207a91e23657c96d2c9cebeb? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great Plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-36817/)󠁿 [uboksunday](https://profiles.wordpress.org/uboksunday/) Me 11, 2023 From now on, with this plugin I can easily import my aliexpress product easily and very fast without stress. I love this plugin, you will enjoy it because it does all the importing job for you. What a life saver! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9c1ef28f3ac7c670eaa45b6ceb957c15f7b51ca2195a85363fc3862b86a767d8? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Pleasantly happy](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pleasantly-happy/)󠁿 [scottjswenson](https://profiles.wordpress.org/scottjswenson/) Desanm 28, 2022 This can’t get any easier to use: copy&paste either the URL or the ID, it automatically starts to do its thing. If it can get what it needs, you are well on your way. If for some reason it cannot process the URL (like if the product isn’t available to be shipped to your location), it errors out. The message could be more verbose but that is really nitpicking. The AI is BRILLIANT. No more broken English or culturally incorrect wording. Instead you get a configurable number of options to us. Select one and it drops it in the description. Move down and verify the images are ok. Select what variations you want to process (including being able to change the variation label to something you want – NICE!!), then set your price multiplier (including the shipping if desired). Double check that things look ok, then either push to draft or publish. The only glitch I’ve come across – and it might not be a glitch but instead Ali-foolery, is that sometimes shipping comes up with a cost when the Ali says its free (better than the alternative) and randomly, the Ali price is WAAAAAAAAAAY off, like an $8 widget on Ali comes up as a $6000 item in Alister. This is random and repeatable on the same item so suspect something is lost in translation or Ali is playing weird. Just push to draft and fix the numbers. Oh, and if you don’t set a price, it puts it out of stock. Overall, I’m completely pleased with this plugin. Kudos!
