Somebody please check out the GitHub downloads for sample bulk product upload spreasdheet at https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/tree/master/sample-data
Most importantly: no way to open CSV in any meaningful way in LibreOffice Calc
No way to import XML into LibreOffice Calc
This is likely to make people swipe left and try a different cart. Why you do this?
My solution:
Go here: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/product-csv-importer-exporter/
Then click through to here: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/wiki/Product-CSV-Import-Schema#csv-columns-and-formatting
Then make your own CSV based on that (not done it yet).

Predicted response (please, don’t bother replying if it’s the following):
– You use LibreOffice? Use Lotus 1-2-3 silly!
– Update your LibreOffice!
– You are rude therefore l will not answer you but l do actually know the answer

Still, 2 questions remain:
– HOW DO I MAKE WOOCOMMERCE SHOW RECENTLY UPLOADED PRODUCTS?
(l see the column for featured products. But l also want RECENT products. Not even sure if any template supports that, but it’s needed. You know, for marketing? To sell the things to the people?)
– IS THE SKU FIELD GOING TO BE VISIBLE TO PUBLIC?
Disappoint me now. Y’all gone and made it visible to the public for no good reason haven’t you? So now l can’t write private notes in the SKU i.e. date of original product creation so that l can see when to start discounting.
