What's going wrong
Store managers using this WooCommerce plugin report that the search field for picking related products in the product editor stops working. Some say the box shrinks after an update so nothing can be selected, others see a broken block replacing the search bar, and some type text that returns no results. A few owners on pro versions say the fix was not released for their edition. Because product editing is daily work for merchants, the failure stalls catalog updates. A replacement picker that is tested after each WordPress and WooCommerce update would address it.
