Product Variation

Product Variation allows you to define different options for a single product, such as color or size. These variations help customers easily select the right version of a product while improving inventory management and product organization.


Accessing Product Variation Settings

  1. Login to your WebCommander account.
  2. From the left menu, go to Products.
  3. Click on the Product Variation tab at the top.

Adding a Product Variation

To create a new product variation:

  • Click the + Add Variation button.
  • In the Add Variation popup:
    • Variation Name: Enter the name for the variation (e.g., Color, Size).
    • Standard: Choose the input type (Text, Color, Image, etc.).
    • Under Options, fill in:
      • Label: The display name (e.g., Red, Small).
      • Value: Used internally for logic or filters.
      • Order: Set the sequence in which options will appear.
  • Click + Add Another to add more options under the same variation.

Managing Variations

Once variations are added, you can:

  • Edit: Use the pencil icon to modify an existing variation.
  • Delete: Click the trash icon to remove a variation.
  • Default vs Custom: You may see pre-filled entries like “Color-default” and “Size-default.” These can be customized as needed.

Troubleshooting 

  • Ensure all required fields like Variation Name and Options are filled in, avoid special characters.
  • Confirm the variation is saved and assigned to a product; clear cache if needed.
  • Use the "Order" field to manually set display order (e.g., 1, 2, 3).
  • Use unique names for each variation to avoid conflicts.
  • Refresh the page, confirm the variation is not assigned to any active product when deleting a variation.
