You likely have a plugin causing an error before they are output. Disable other plugins to find the cause.
Yes I know the drill…just posting this just in case it was a known obvious issue.
How can I disable automatic updates of Woocommerce? I do not like auto updating because of the reason of the subject matter of my posting.
I’ll see what I can do.
I am also facing the same problem…
No tab for the selection of Variable Product while adding a product.
Tabs are operational while editing the product data…

If you enable WP_DEBUG it might be an obvious error message.

There is no auto-update. You click the button to trigger it 😉
How can I roll back to the previous version I know that worked? And if I do that, will I lose all my product data in the process?
Thanks Mike.
lol I never clicked any update button brother. I saw the message that the database needed to be updated….but that’s as far as I ever took it.

tansendesigns post your own thread – you’re breaking the forum rules 🙂

Plugin updates are shown in the plugins section, but WordPress core does not auto-update plugins for you. It has to be triggered by you, your host, or a plugin 🙂
You can downgrade and your data will be fine https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce/developers/
However, do the WP_DEBUG thing first and actually find out what plugin is causing the issue. They may have a 2.6 compatible update.
Thanks Mike I will do just that! As far as the “auto” update goes, it was my bad. I had did a batch update and WC was one of those in the list. 🙂
I always want to hold off updating WC until at least my theme gets an update to handle it. You guys operate faster than they do. I have a strong hunch that it’s my theme causing the issue.
I’m not sure what all of this means but I did a screenshot of some errors on the Edit Product page. http://prntscr.com/blugee
And I enabled debug mode BTW.
The errors are coming from this: https://github.com/TGMPA/TGM-Plugin-Activation, which is probably included in your theme. Can’t say for sure if that is the cause of the missing product data tabs, but it is the cause of those two errors.
It’s rather quick to find the true cause of the issue though…
Try temporarily switching back to the WordPress Twenty Sixteen Theme, or Storefront, and disable all plugins except for WooCommerce. If that resolves the issue, then slowly re-enable features until you find the one that’s causing the conflict.
Update: Found out that the above mentioned plugin is integrated with my theme. So chances are, that is the root of my problem.
They will have an update in about a week so in the meantime, I’m going to revert back to an older WC version. Should be just fine.
FYI: Those two ‘errors’ (notices) should not be the original cause of the issue as they don’t prevent anything else from working.
Please inform the theme developer they should review the settings they use for TGMPA (which is used by them to recommend compatible plugins).
Yes I figured that out once I reverted back to 2.5.5 WC. I still got the same errors as before BUT I got my tabs back. 🙂
That was the important thing to me.
Thanks for sharing 🙂 Hopefully they will put out an update soon, and keep up with our developer blog in future 🙂
