Title: Problem with Woocommerce Variations Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Problem with Woocommerce Variations * Resolved [Yogesh Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eryogeshsingh/) * (@eryogeshsingh) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/) * Using Woocommerce. Have many variations of the same products. * I am currently struggling with Variations, i need to add multiple variations with multiple options for the single product. You can find it here: [http://propatiocomforts.com/product/pgs-legacy-grills-model-s27](http://propatiocomforts.com/product/pgs-legacy-grills-model-s27) * So, if i have to add the variation details, combination says that i have to add 200+ product details (cost and all). So, all i wanted to know if thr is a plugin or a script to create/manage variations. Or if this can be done using some classes as on WP eCommerce in which we simply need to add the variation category cost like +45, -42 or the percentages. * One more thing, when i use the auto feature which says “link all variations” it keep on adding the same variations in the slot of 50 but not the remaining combinations. * Very surprised to see that Woocommerce is not supporting such a feature or may be i am such a lame who can’t see that function in this beautiful Plugin. In fact i agree that the Variations in WC is providing out of the box features but unfortunately not solving my requirement.

It’s rude and **not** the ‘fastest way to get a Woo Ninja to look at your ticket’. No hard feelings, but please don’t do that any more from now on. * Back to your case: We have a [Product CSV Import Suite extension](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/?output_format=md) which currently the fastest way to mass import a lot of variations. We do not allow incremental/relative changes of a variation price yet, but this is on our [roadmap](https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/wiki/Roadmap) (“variations rewrite”) for future releases. * Thread Starter [Yogesh Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eryogeshsingh/) * (@eryogeshsingh) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632127) * I understand the reasons now. Will take care in future but i mentioned this in 1 thread only. * Here is what i have done before your response and it worked. I installed WP eCommerce and then used WPEC to WooCommerce Tool to Transfer the whole thing to Woocommerce, though it worked with some issues but the main purpose was solved. * Will wait for the ‘incremental/relative changes of a variation price’ functionality. Thanks for your support. * [mongobread](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mongobread/) * (@mongobread) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632320) * Hi Yogesh, * I think we have the same problem however I have more variation than you have now in that product page. * I have 6 dropdowns, 5 of them is 11 choices. and the last is 10. My variation looks like this. * > Invitation Cards – 11 dropdowns/choices * > RSVP Cards – 11 dropdowns/choices * > Reception Cards – 11 dropdowns/choices * > Thank you cards – 11 dropdowns/choices * > Save the date cards – 11 dropdowns/choices * > Address Label – 10 dropdowns/choices * Thread Starter [Yogesh Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eryogeshsingh/) * (@eryogeshsingh) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632321) * [@mongobread](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mongobread/) Is all these variations will appear on the same product page? If yes, use X Cart. If no, provide more details. * After wasting 2 weeks and a lot of resources i had to decide on switching the platform. * [mongobread](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mongobread/) * (@mongobread) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632322) * Yes, same product page. Affect pricing as well, in wpec it has increment/decrement price already. But can’t handle the load, Only * I have been checking out other platforms as well such as prestashop. Can’t handle the load by localhost as well but can go beyond than wpec. * Thanks for the fast reply 🙂 * Thread Starter [Yogesh Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eryogeshsingh/) * (@eryogeshsingh) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632323) * [@mongobread](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mongobread/) Thanks, Then i would say you should try x cart. Though if WC was having a increment/decrement the server memory is going to be a constraint. * Not sure about open cart but you can give it a try too. * [mongobread](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mongobread/) * (@mongobread) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632324) * Indeed, I tried w/ WPEC with 3 variatons (11 choices) and it is very slow to show the price. I was wondering even if I manually input the combinations to about (last generation was…) 11,000+ * …the price shows about less than 10 seconds so I think it won’t be good if I have l2 products w/ 6 variations(11 choices) * Now the next problem in case X-Cart can handle this is adapting the design I have coded in WooCommerce / WP eCommerce (WPEC). * Thread Starter [Yogesh Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eryogeshsingh/) * (@eryogeshsingh) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632325) * Yes, thats the most frustrating part, it can’t be done manually. * The WC process it in a slot of 50 variations but they keep on repeating the same 50 variations every time, i suggested the WC guys on this that WC should pick the remaining variations but as WC is not having variation cost increment/decrement so it merely of any use. * [mongobread](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mongobread/) * (@mongobread) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632326) * I just saw x-cart, it seems no free version to test in localhost? Correct? I need to buy beforehand? * Thread Starter [Yogesh Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eryogeshsingh/) * (@eryogeshsingh) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632327) * Just give a try to open cart first. I used it few weeks back and it worked for around 100 variations, not sure that how it will respond with your requirements but all we can do is to give a try. * [mongobread](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mongobread/) * (@mongobread) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632328) * I see, thanks for showing the door atleast. Now I know I’m not on alone 😀 It’s very frustrating when the creators of the plugin didn’t respond to this requirement. * *thumbs up* * Thread Starter [Yogesh Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eryogeshsingh/) * (@eryogeshsingh) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632329) * Agreed, cheers! * [mnphumphrey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mnphumphrey/) * (@mnphumphrey) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632377) * [@mongobread](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mongobread/) – What did you ever do to handle the large number of variations? I have a millions of variations and am thinking of buying the woocommerce product add-on extension that allows for drop-downs. * Thread Starter [Yogesh Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eryogeshsingh/) * (@eryogeshsingh) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632378) * [@mnphumphrey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mnphumphrey/) If you have large variations then don’t even think about using Woocommerce (though its the best). You should give a try to OpenCart (free and open source). * [mnphumphrey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mnphumphrey/) * (@mnphumphrey) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-woocommerce-variations/#post-3632379) * Thanks! I’ll look in to it.
