Variable products
Simple products such as coffee cups and umbrellas are great, but many products have some variation. Posters come in multiple sizes, phone cases come in multiple colors, and clothes come in sizes and colors. For these types of products, we have variable products (https://woocommerce.com/document/variable-product/).
We’re going to build on what we learned in the previous section and look into a few concepts specific to variations:
- Attributes: These describe our products – for example, size or color
- Variations: These are options our users select – for example, a small T-shirt
- Images for variation: These are uploaded differently than simple products
- Multi-attribute products: These are for configuring multiple attributes in the backend (for example, size and color)
- Troubleshooting variations: This is for what to do when something isn’t working
The first thing we have to do is select Variable product at the top...
