Major update ruined my site with massive changes

    The latest update changed so many fundamental settings that this plugin (pro version) f***** my site and all my invested time in color settings etc. is gone…
    – Previously it was possible to set swatches in the catalogue only for definded products, no this is a global setting with on/off for all only
    – Globally defined color settings of attributes got messed up, especially with dual colors
    – Dual color settings on product level don’t make sense. You can set dual color on “global” but still need to seta primary color and can’t set that to “global” as well
    – WPML translation used to work automatically for swatches, not anymore. All settings per product need to be done on each language.

    I feel bad for all the time and energy I invested. What a bad decision to flip around an extension which is running on so many sites. Need to adjust 200 products now and will probably need to search for an alternative.

    I found so many inconsitensies, please adjust these and will update my review. But it seems you are not testing your plugin. So please:

    • Allow disabling catalogue swatches for single products in product settings
    • Allow single or multiple attribute swatches on product level
    • Allow „attribute display limit“ not only on „Show single attribute“ setting but also when multiple variations are shown in catalogue
    • Single attribute setting: This should also enable “Add to cart” button when this attribute is the only one, as it works without the single attribute setting
    • When selecting a single attribute and clicking into the product, this selection should be stored.
    • Add / bring back WPML compatibility

    No, still not working – Your changelog also says there was only a CSS update?

    The catalog/archive things don’t handle from this free version as you know, right?
