This is set out to solve the problem of dealing with WooCommerce’s variable products only ever deducting one from the total product stock. The use case I had for it was as follows: Client wants to sell packs of cigars 3/5/10 and wants each variation to deduct from the main product total. So I built this simple plugin to manage variable product stock and update product quantities dynamically, using woocommerce. Basically it solves this question not mine but it ilustrates the point: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/72662/woocommerce-fixed-quantity-of-a-product.
