If you import products from AliExpress, you may have noticed that many sellers include only a few images in the description section. These images often feature Chinese text and the seller’s logo. To address this, we recommend disabling the import of description images by selecting the “Don’t import images from the description” option in the plugin’s common settings.

If you choose to exclude description images, the imported products will have empty descriptions. Typically, WordPress will not display the description section in this case. However, it is advisable to provide some useful information in that space.

One approach is to populate the product description with AliExpress attributes, specifically those referred to as “Specifications” on the AliExpress portal. Please note that we are referring to attributes related to the product itself, not variations.

You have to add the following code line to the WordPress config file (wp-config.php):

define(‘A2W_SAVE_ATTRIBUTE_AS_DESCRIPTION’, true);

New products that you push from the import list to your store will fill the product description with attributes (This section is called item specifics on the AliExpress portal).
