📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

A new get_product_type_options() helper method is added to the product edit admin page, returning descriptive labels for each Product_Type constant (Plan, Package, Service, Demo). The Product Type form field is updated to use this helper's output and a revised description. The .pot file is updated with the new translatable strings.

Changes

Product Type UI Labels

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Helper method, field wiring, and translations inc/admin-pages/class-product-edit-admin-page.php, lang/ultimate-multisite.pot	get_product_type_options() returns a keyed array mapping Product_Type constants to human-readable labels (Plan, Package, Service, Demo). The Product Type form field's options source is switched from Product_Type::to_array() to this helper, and the desc text is replaced with a more specific per-type explanation. The .pot file adds the four label strings and the updated field description.

Poem

A rabbit hopped in, labels in paw,
Plan, Package, Service, Demo — no flaw!
The dropdown now speaks with clarity bright,
Each product type shining in readable light.
🐇✨ No more guessing — the UI's just right!
