variations issue

Hi @cromag27!

There is a cut off at pre-loading 30 variations:

https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/657c312caeef7345b225ffb899da6dbb84692936/includes/wc-template-functions.php#L1027

You can read more about that here: https://woocommerce.wordpress.com/2015/07/13/improving-the-variations-interface-in-2-4/.

In the front-end, if a variable product has more than 30 variations, the data will be loaded via AJAX rather than handled inline.

It is possible to change this quantity using the woocommerce_ajax_variation_threshold filter. The following code should work:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_ajax_variation_threshold', 'wc_ninja_ajax_threshold' );
function wc_ninja_ajax_threshold() {
    return 100;
}

You can learn more about adding code to your site the correct way here:

Please let us know if that helps.

Cheers!

that’s not at all my issue.

Are the affected attributes in stock? Do they have a price?

yes. but that doesn’t have anything to do with my issue.

please only reply if you actually understand my issue and know how to fix it.

@cromag27 OK I’ll pass then ??

Hi @cromag27,

It will be great if you can share with us the screenshots of your product setup and how it is working, this will help us understand your problem and we will be able to point you in the right direction.

Could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status as well? This will help understand how your site is currently configured. You can find it via WooCommerce > Status.
Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.? Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.

If you don’t already have a screenshot service installed, here are a few options:

* https://snipboard.io

* https://skitch.com/

* https://getcloudapp.com/

* https://awesomescreenshot.com/ There is also a walkthrough guide here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/make-a-screenshot/.

are you guys for real???????

i need help with this specific product. if you can’t help, then don’t try. it’s just wasting my time.

Hi @cromag27!

Here is what you said in your initial message:

tired of my customers asking me why certain products aren’t available (Sorry, no products matched your selection. Please choose a different combination.) and i have to explain it’s because they chose the wrong combination.

The explanation I provided along with the code, is exactly what is needed to counter this. Have you given that snippet a go at all, to see if it helps?

Cheers!

i shouldn’t have to change any code. this is an issue with the extension functionality. if any code needs to be changed, it would have been included in one of the many updates that have been rolled out.

you also selectively ignored my very initial statement. “ when i have multiple variations, i don’t want the customer to see ALL variations. i want to be able to select which variation combinations should be available.”. this is the root issue. your workaround of code snippets has nothing to do with front end display.

Hi @cromag27!

this is an issue with the extension functionality.

I am going to respectfully disagree. If however, you feel this is an issue in the core plugin, you’re welcome to open an issue at the following link and our developers will provide you feedback there:

https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/issues/new/choose

Otherwise, you’ll find dozens of the same reports in the forums. Here are just a few:

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/variations-disabled-but-still-shown/
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/woocommerce-plugin-changed-the-way-how-it-works/

Again, I will recommend adding that code, to see if that resolves your issue.

Have a fantastic day further.

Hi @rynald0s!

your workaround of code snippets has nothing to do with front end display.

Again, it has everything to do with the frontend display.

Cheers!

We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to go ahead and mark this thread as resolved. If you have any other questions please feel free to start a new thread.
