The plugin is useful for stores that sell products with sizes, colors, packs, subscriptions, or other product attributes where customers should see available variations clearly before adding an item to the cart. Instead of relying only on dropdown fields, this plugin can display WooCommerce product variations as selectable radio buttons, show variation details, and keep WooCommerce variation behavior working with the product add-to-cart form. #### Key Features * Replace WooCommerce variation dropdowns with radio buttons. * Display product variation options in a clear, customer-friendly layout. * Merge variation attributes into one variation selector or keep attributes separated. * Show variation price and description in the variation option template. * Keep original WooCommerce dropdowns for selected products or attributes when needed. * Optional setting to replace the add-to-cart form on archive pages. * Optional JavaScript events for `show_variation` and `found_variation` compatibility. * Customizable frontend templates for variation display output. * Optional extra CSS field for small styling adjustments. * Compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS). #### Why Use Radio Buttons for WooCommerce Variations? WooCommerce variable products often use dropdown menus by default. Dropdowns work well for compact forms, but they can hide available product options from shoppers. Radio buttons make product variation choices visible immediately. This can help customers compare options faster, reduce missed selections, and create a smoother product page experience for stores with a manageable number of variations. #### Template Customization The plugin includes settings for customizing variation display templates. You can adjust the header, each variation row, footer, reset button, labels, and option layout from the WooCommerce settings area. Frontend template output is filtered through an allowed HTML list so common formatting tags and attributes can be used while keeping the output controlled. #### WooCommerce Requirement This plugin requires WooCommerce. It is designed specifically for WooCommerce variable products and product variation forms. ## Installation 1. Upload the `imaginate-variation-display-options-woocommerce` folder to the `/wp- content/plugins/` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen. 2.
