 * Hi there!
 * While there isn’t a limit on how many variations a product can have that’s imposed
   by WooCommerce itself, it does very much depend on what your server can handle.
   In your case, it sounds like your server is having a hard time keeping up with
   the large number of variations.
 * Can you tell us a bit more about why you need as many variations? We may be able
   to provide an alternative to the kind of setup you have now.

 * Okay. I will contact my server-side for this. Well, there are 20 colours that
   need to choose, 20 colours x 20 colours x 20 colours x 2 types. That is why there
   are so many variations for it. If you have any other alternatives, that would
   be great.

 * Hi [@braderdesign2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/braderdesign2/),
 * Since you have so many variations, I would suggest reducing the variations (which
   will also reduce the strain on your server) by using custom product fields in
   their place. Here are some plugins you can check out:

    We’ve not heard back from you in a while, so I’m marking this thread as 
   resolved. Hopefully, the above info was useful!
