Product variations and prices

  • Hi there.

    I would like to ask for a little help as I really dont know what to do with this.

    Using WP+WOOCOMMERCE. I have a lot of attributes and its just toooooo many variations to create and price them – and thats only 1 product. There will be about 30 of them.

    Product XYZ will have attributes :

    SIZE : 3×3, 3×4, 3×5, 4×4 and 4×5 (each size is different price)

    WITH FLOOR : YES, NO (if yes, then price is higher – of course depending on what size has been selected)

    WITH IMPREGNATION : YES, NO (if yes, then price is higher – of course depending on what size has been selected)

    ROOFING : STYLE 1 or STYLE 2 (if STYLE 2, then price is higher – of course depending on what size has been selected)

    CURTAINS ON SIDE : NO, STYLE A or STYLE B (if STYLE A , then price is higher – of course depending on what size has been selected, same for STYLE B)

    PAINT : COLOR 1, COLOR 2, COLOR 3, COLOR 4, COLOR 5 (whatever color is selected, price is not higher or lower – no change for price)

    ROOFING COLOR : COLOR A, COLOR B, COLOR C (whatever color is selected, price is not higher or lower – no change for price)

    Basically we can ignore the PAINT and ROOFING COLOR, as these can be ANY and price doesnt change.

    NOW, I need to create all variations of these attributes, and as you can see, basically nearly each variation will have different price.
    It is to combine EACH attribute with EACH other attributes and there will be hundreds of variations for this single product?!

    Is there any way how to achieve this the easy way?
    Anything?

    Thank you.
    peter

  • Perhaps you can use radio buttons or checkboxes for some of your attributes. A radio button or checkbox will have label and an add-on price, but not a price formula. Checkboxes and radio buttons don’t increase the variation count. Look for add-on plugins. This is a common need and there are several you could use.

    Booster (free)

    free is limited to 3 products, or all products with the same add-ons
    The pro version is not limited.

    Good if the option does not affect price, so suitable for your colour options. Price changes possible using the code in the documentation.

    Options can be priced.

    Try the free plugins to get the hang of it. If you like the concept, there are several premium add-on plugins with more features.

    Add-ons can’t have their own SKU, cannot be stock controlled and can’t have their own image like variations can.

    The customer’s add-on choices feed through cart, checkout and orders.

    You definitely need to follow lorro’s advice, I would suggest Product Addons from woocommerce.com, it’s reasonably priced for the quality of the plugin – it will make creating those yes/no variables easy without needing to make hundreds of variations.

    Also, if your 30 products will share the same variables – you can create a global “addon” that will re-use the same settings for all the products you specify, so you could probably get your products set up entirely in about 10 minutes with this plugin.
