Hi guy, i use your plugin, but now the variation description can’t show on the product page, how to do resolve it?
Hi,
Thank you for reaching out to us. This is managed by WooCommerce, our plugin does not control this.
Best regards.
If it not use your plugin, it can be shown.
I doubt this could be a conflict with theme, or another plugin. As I checked and the issue does not happen on our site: https://prnt.sc/etN8izGdSxtq Could you please check this problem with only WooCommerce and our plugin activated?
Thank you.
OK, I will try it. Thank you
is this possible? selection mens-shirt then it only shows the color grey in 6 sizes see: https://nimb.ws/y8dNbF then the same product i select a hoodie, i get a other color and sizes, and ofcourse the price is changed: https://nimb.ws/MHpWyF
Hi,
This feature is managed by WooCommerce. If you create different variations without using “Any ‘attribute’”, but with specific attribute, then when you select one attribute, it’ll only show the matching other attributes of the variation. https://prnt.sc/kjlAGBAqne5w
Best regards.
Hi, I purchased your plugin few hours ago JUST because it have conditional setting about Custom Attributes swatches.
My requirement is simple and it should work with your plugin. I have large products list and can not alter them manually, so used your swatches plugin to work with custom attributes.
Your plugin works for assigned attribute – but problem in Custom Attribute.
I am attaching screenshots. These are my product page custom attributes, and setting in your plugin about Images to render, and Custom Attribute tab setting.
https://ibb.co/frBFSgw https://ibb.co/7GSgqBG https://ibb.co/xX0FSwyPlease reply & help. Thanks in Advance.
This is the site where it is not displaying . Because this “Colour” is custom attribute , as these are migrated products. Not working for > https://vapr.a2hosted.com/products/18650-battery-wraps/
It is working for product with assigned attributes (not Custom) -> https://vapr.a2hosted.com/products/geek-vape-aegis-hero-45w-pod-kit/Hello,
For custom attributes, you have to configure every attribute value on every product https://imgbb.com/frBFSgw
This one https://imgbb.com/7GSgqBG is only for global attributes
If global attributes and custom attributes share the same settings, there will be no need to divide them into global and custom attributes anymore.
And if you want your custom attributes work that way, please change them to global attributes.
Best regards
Thanks for quick reply. Your suggestion about – “Changing them to global is time consuming, OR configure every attribute value on every product “
is much time consuming (we have large products dataset – 5k plus) & that is reason to purchase something which works based on conditions.
You mean, nothing wrong in my configuration, but.. it won’t work as I intended. Do you suggest any other work-around, something quicker ?
Please explain this “This is the site where it is not displaying . Because this “Colour” is custom attribute , as these are migrated products”. Why does it has to be custom attributes? I migrate products using WooCommerce’s built-in importer and attribute types are the same as the source data.
I found several ways when googling about changing custom attributes to global attributes https://www.google.com/search?q=woocommerce+convert+custom+attributes+to+global+attributes&rlz=1C1VDKB_enVN947VN947&oq=woocommerce+convert+custom+attributes+to+global+attributes&aqs=chrome..69i57.8664j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 but never tried. Please try them yourself.
Hi Kim, We migrated store from Shopify to Woo & these custom attributes were auto-generated by that 3rd party migration tool.
Thanks for link, I was on it.
Your plug-in is good . & I appreciate quick support as well. Thanks anyway.
You’re welcome.
PS: our Shopify to Woo plugin has an option to choose global/custom attributes(premium feature) when migrating products.
Yes, I purchased that & used it to migrate. & migrated data. I have premium version https://ibb.co/s6P1QqB
I’ll recheck their settings about product import.
Then you only need to go to the plugin settings to enable “Use global attributes” option then go to Products to sync Variation attributes following this documentation without reimporting products.
Yes Kim. I did same & it worked. Many thanks.
You’re welcome.
Thanks for this new update sir! Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for your encouragements.
Hello do you have any admin demo to check? Currently we have 400 attributes in our pa_color and we would like to check how fast we can add the images with your plugin.
Hello, please try the free version here http://bit.ly/product-variations-swatches-for-woocommerce . The way of adding images for attributes is the same as the premium version.
Hello. Is there any way to Import attributes with image?
There’s no such feature now, unfortunately.
I’m trying to do the import using wp all import plugin. I can set the image from there. The attribute will update and I can see in the meta data the image but will not work with your plugin unfortunately
Sorry, we have not tested that yet.
If you have any problems with our plugin, please create a ticket here https://villatheme.com/supports/forum/plugins/woocommerce-product-variations-swatches/
Thanks
How to remove ” VIllaTheme ” on top admin bar ? , I would call it spam ad cuz it forwards to dev website and can’t disable it :/
Hi,
Thank you for your feedback. We’ll consider optimizing this soon, as we’re doing our best for our user’s experience.
Best regards.
does this plugin support multi sku barcodes ?
Hi,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I’m not sure I understand your question. Do you mean you used multi sku barcodes for your WooCommerce variable products, and are wondering if our plugin can still customize the variations of those items that use multi sku barcodes?
If that’s the case, you can test it with our plugin – the free version: https://wordpress.org/plugins/product-variations-swatches-for-woocommerce/
Best regards.
Thanks for the new update! Keep up! 
Thank you your that! Have a wonderful day!
Why can’t I just update this plugin from my dashboard?
Hi,
It’s because the Item Support and the “Auto-update” duration are expired. They last for 6 months from purchase.
In this case, you can keep update the plugin with the following instruction: https://villatheme.com/knowledge-base/how-to-update-villatheme-plugins-from-envato/
Best regards.
Ok, support I know but auto update?
Then this is YOUR policy? I have plug in the longer than 6 months lying and may still update the plugin automatically from the dashboard.
Apparently I have overlooked to read your fine print!
The Auto-update feature is an additional service we provide along with the Item Support. The plugin is guaranteed to update for a lifetime without any extra fee, it’s Envato policy.
Best regards.
After the latest update, it automatically uninstalled the plugin from our wordpress and it gave some error in the plugin saying that it is now going to deactivate…please be more careful as we need it to work 24/7!
“The module does not contain a valid header.”
Hello,
Sorry to hear that. After the latest update, you are the only user who reports the issue so I think it’s a site specific problem. Please delete the plugin and install the latest version from codecanyon and let me know if the issue persists.
Best regards
unfortunately, if I do this, I will lose all the work i have done with this plugin (i added to 80+ products swatches), so I can’t afford to lose the work
Don’t worry, deleting our plugin does not affect any of the plugin settings or configurations. If you want to be more careful, just backup your site first. Please do it it and let me know.
It doesn’t install it. It says that it isn’t a valid plugin
You downloaded the wrong file. Please follow this guide https://villatheme.com/supports/topic/how-to-download-and-install-villatheme-plugins/
Uhm, that’s how I’ve done it. Downloaded it from here, on envato, not otherwise
like a fresh new install (here downloaded it like the first time on envato, deleted the plugin from the website, uploaded the newly downloaded one and it gives me that err)
So please try extracting that file then look for the woocommerce-product-variations-swatches.zip file to upload.
I tryied both ways. The all files download and the wodrpress file download
Please send those files to support@villatheme.com
I tryied. It gives me the following error by mailer deamon: Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the following address.
<support@villatheme.com>: 552: 5.7.1 The attachments you have added violate the Secure Attachment Policy. Learn more
I’ve sent you a WeTransfer link on that address
You should extract the file codecanyon-yRnmQsFa-woocommerce-product-variations-swatches.zip then install the file under \codecanyon-yRnmQsFa-woocommerce-product-variations-swatches\woocommerce-product-variations-swatches-v1.0.6/woocommerce-product-variations-swatches.zip
I tested by uploading the file codecanyon-yRnmQsFa-woocommerce-product-variations-swatches.zip and there’s no problem https://snipboard.io/v8xEiH.jpg so I’m not sure what happens to your site. Which WP version are you using?
tried to extract the .zip, same results. v5.9.2
Please capture the screen after you upload the file.
i’ve sent the url to your e-mail provided above
I have no idea why you have that error but I think it occurs when you install all plugins, not just ours. Please try this https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/step-by-step-guide-to-install-a-wordpress-plugin-for-beginners/#:~:text=Manually%20Install%20a%20WordPress%20Plugin%20using%20FTP
If the above method does not help, please send your wp admin to our support email, we will help you check it.
manual installation worked. Thank you!
Added hook from support ticket is a little off (at least i would asume so.
The line added on line 466 in includes/frontend/frontend.php you added is
$terms = apply_filters( ‘viwpvs_frontend_get_product_terms’, $terms, $product, $terms );
But should be
$terms = apply_filters( ‘viwpvs_frontend_get_product_terms’, $terms, $product, $attribute );
As the addition was requested in the support period but was shipped after my support period expired and you don’t reply to the regular mail address, that was the only way to contact you.
Hello,
Sorry, you contacted us during our vacation so we were unable to respond promptly.
About the above change, it’s the same as in your ticket https://snipboard.io/IosvLi.jpg
Best regards
Hello, I know that it is the same hook, but as you can see in the ticket I need the $attribute variable for the wc_get_product_terms function to work. But the $attribute variable is missing in the hook and instead the $terms variable is used twice which doesn’t make sense at all 
.
Thats the reason why I think the correct hook should be including $attribute.
Sorry, you did not say like that in your ticket so I keep the change the same as I responded to you in your ticket. And according to your ticket, you use an foreach loop to process terms https://villatheme.com/supports/topic/feature-addition-hide-not-purchasable-attributes/ so the change is as desired, it’s not duplicated. You don’t need to use the wc_get_product_terms again so the $attribute variable is not needed.
The first $terms is the one you can change via the filter and the second $terms is like the original terms that can not be filtered which always holds the result of wc_get_product_terms(
$product->get_id(),
$attribute,
array(
'fields' => 'all',
)
)
add_filter('viwpvs_frontend_get_product_terms',function ($terms, $product, $original_terms){
return $terms;
},10,3);

I submitted a request for support and received no reply???
I am using woocommerce in catalogue mode. This plugin is not working to show swatches on my items, does it have to be a variable item? Even when I try that it does not work? I do not want to show a price anywhere. Also, will your plugin work with ‘add to quote’ plugins and if so, which one/s.
Hi,
Thank you for reaching out to us. We did receive your topic on our Support Forum and reply right after since Feb 17th. Did you not have the notice of our reply?
However, I checked your site, it’s not a WordPress site. Please keep me updated on the topic you created.
Regarding the compatibility with an “add to quote” plugin, our plugin has not been checked with one before, so we can’t say for sure, unfortunately.
Best regards.
Would this plug-in add image swatches for all existing variations on a site globally, they are not set up as archives, they are unique to each product. But the variations have images. Just want to select from clickable images off the variations, rather than a drop down list. thanks,
HI,
Yes, with our plugin, you can set the image swatches for any global attributes you select. I supposed you’re referring to the “Custom attribute” which is made in a particular product. Yes, our plugin can also customize custom attributes.
You can regard our documentation of this part here: https://docs.villatheme.com/woo-product-variations-swatches/#configuration_child_menu_4067
Best regards.
Thats great thank you, just purchased and tested, all seems to work well.
Yes. For any questions while using our plugin, don’t hesitate to let us know. You can make a support ticket on our Forum. This Support Forum: https://villatheme.com/supports/forum/plugins/woocommerce-product-variations-swatches/ Follow this guide to create a ticket: https://villatheme.com/knowledge-base/how-to-create-tickets-on-villathemes-forum/
Have a great day!
It should display and change product images on hover!... Why is this not added yet? Nobody wants to select all variations and then the image of the product changes to the selected variation, other plugins are more friendlier, it should change image when someone hovers on the image variations. Please add this feature!
Thank you,
Hi,
Thank you for the feedback. Other than changing the image to variation image, you can also change to image set for attribute. Changing image when hovering over is not available, we will consider if we can add it in our future updates.
Best regards.
Hello, how can I see the quantity in stock for the selected variation in Product List view?
Hi,
The option to see the quantity of in stock items on product list is not available yet. We will consider adding this option in the future updates.
Best regards.
i buy it last week and its broke my website its not safe at all and icontact the support to cancel it and refuned me my money they say we cannt its scam be carful
Hi,
In the support ticket you created, you mentioned that you purchased our item by accident, so we can’t issue a refund in this case.
About your site being broken, we can’t access your site so we can’t confirm your site status is caused by our plugin. If you need support, please keep us updated on the support ticket you create. We will check further.
Best regards.
Hi, It was asked 8 months ago, but maybe there is an improvement. I am asking again. Is it compatible with Dokan?
Hi,
Which feature of our plugin and Dokan that you’re asking for the compatibility issue?
Best regards.
Hi, What I want to ask is all the features. I’m not saying if vendors can use this plugin. Do not get me wrong. I’m wondering if there is a problem if Dokan is used, or if this plugin works perfectly for products published by vendors.
Hello,
Products published by vendors are displayed the same as other products so there’s no problem displaying swatches of variable products in the frontend https://snipboard.io/GvZsXx.jpg . However, vendors cannot configure variation swatches, only the site admin can.
Best regards
Thank you very much for the answers. Finally; 1-) For the plugin to work, should the free plugin also work? 2-) What is the file size in mb (megabytes) for the pro plugin?
1. The two versions are dependent plugins so you only need to install one version.
2. It’s about 1.24 MB for the current version of the pro plugin.
Best regards
Pre-sale question – I host on GoDaddy and use Godaddy staging site, As of now, GoDaddy staging sites do not use the same domain as primary domain ( they say this is changing in future). For Elementor Pro I have to manually switch my license to staging site, I can deactivate license and then reactivate on staging site. I don’t want to buy license for staging site as GoDaddy says this may change in near future as they move to new site name scheme. In this scenario I cannot use your product in staging and it seems if I clone Primary domain to Staging then your product will not function and this will defeat purpose of a staging site. Can you confirm?
Hi,
We provide the support of removing key and license on a domain. Please regard this article for which situations are supported: https://villatheme.com/knowledge-base/plugin-license-and-key-removal-on-a-domain/
For us to make sure the domains you want to switch license are staging and live domains, we’ll observe the logo, product, domain URL, design… And if they’re different, we’ll consider them 2 independent sites. If you need to switch key between 2 live sites, we’ll provide support in case the current domain stops working.
Best regards.
