General Settings

Posted on by Lavender Vu

In the general setting tab of the plugin settings, you can set a default display type of variation swatches. It can be the button or radio type.

  1. Default Display: This is the setting for default Display Type and default Swatches Profile, if an attribute is not configured. So, after selecting a default display type, enable a matching swatches profile under the Swatches Profile settings. If you select the first 3 options, then “Displayed type” will be the type you selected in the left dropdown. Variation displays depend on swatches profiles, choose the default Swatches Profile in the right dropdown:
    • None: Default to WooCommerce default display of variation.
    • Button
    • Radio
    • Variation Image: If you choose this selection, product variations are shown as image swatches with variation image (you can see this documentation for a better view how variation images are. With products with multiple attributes:
      • Use Variation Image swatches display for:
        • The first attribute: Priority from top to bottom
        • Only the attribute has name in: Fill in the attribute name(s) in the text area next to this selection
      • Except for the particular attribute – first attribute or selected attributes – all others will be displayed as buttons. Select a Swatches Profile to apply a Button display type. As mentioned, the final appearance of an attribute depends on both the Display Type and the Swatches Profile.
  2. Blur out backorders:  Enable this option so when the admin allows customers to backorder an item, the attributes go blur
  3. Prioritize first attribute: For products that have more than 1 attribute, when selecting a value of the first attribute but the current combination is not available, select this value anyway and change selections of other attributes instead
    *Important note: To make out-of-stock items clickable, you have to turn off “Disable ‘out of stock’ variation items” option
  4. Custom CSS: Add your own custom CSS here.
  5. Import Settings: After you edit the exported settings file, import the settings back.
  6. Export Settings: Export the current settings to a CSV file.
  7. Reset settings: This button allows you to reset all settings back to original settings.
