Hey @robertocyrino can you do me a favor a post a screenshot of your entire product page for that bundle please? I just want to check a few settings. (Inventory and Facebook tabs)
Hi @jconroy. I was preparing this for you and while testing, I created a bundled product with Type
bundle
(not bundle, virtual
), which then synced and showed on FB perfectly.
I've asked SomewhereWarm about the product types and how bundles can be set as non-virtual and found that the issue can be solved by changing the product's Shipping Settings (Bundle Type must be "assembled", otherwise, the product type will switch from bundle
to bundle, virtual
, and Facebook will automatically hide it from the catalog.

Hey all,
Thanks so much for looking into it!
From a shipping point of view, Bundles are classified as assembled or unassembled:
"Unassembled" bundles are not necessarily virtual, but ->is_virtual()
will return true for the "container" product of the collection.
So if an unassembled bundle contains physical products only, then ideally our merchants should be able to list it on FB :)
I'm wondering if there's a filter we could use to determine this? Is there a place in the codebase where the plugin checks whether a product is virtual or not, and if yes, can we filter the result of the check?
The solution to switch from "assembled" to "unassembled" doesn't work for me because I rely on shipping cost calculations to come from an external supplier and choosing "assembled" (to fix the Facebook catalog visibility issue) breaks the automated shipping calculations from the external supplier (Printful).

I have the very same issue also with Composite products plugin. When the composite is "unassembled" the product can get synced to Facebook catalog but it is hidden. WooCommerce is stuck on the option Show and Hide (show and sync does not do anything) however in Facebook catalog itself I can make the composite product active and it works as it should. However once there is any kind of automatic sync by the Facebook for WooCommerce plugin, all is deactivated in the Facebook catalog again. It would be great, if this could be solved for both bundles and composites since both have the same identical issue.
Assembled option is not a good solution because sellers rely on correct calculation of shipping weights depending on components used. Assembled composites or bundles would therefore charge too little or too much for shipping (both of which is bad)
This still seems to be an issue with bundles functionality. I confirmed with support that the only workaround, for now, is setting the bundles to assembled. Otherwise, [visibility] is set to "staging" instead of "published".
Unfortunately, this doesn't work for everyone. Any idea on when this might be addressed? The issue seems to be quite old for a paid extension.
