Designed For
Your customers can’t buy what they can’t see
Every day, shoppers leave WooCommerce stores without finding products they would have purchased—simply because those variations were hidden behind extra clicks. Better Product Variations fixes this by displaying product variations as individual items directly in your shop catalog.
The Hidden Variation Problem
Picture a customer shopping for a blue dress. They see your “Summer Dress” listing with a generic photo. But your blue version—the exact one they want—is hidden behind a product click they’ll never make.
This happens constantly. And it’s costing you sales.
WooCommerce’s limitation: Variable products show only one option in shop listings
The result: Customers miss variations they would have bought
The solution: Display variations as separate, purchasable products

How Better Product Variations Works
Our plugin enhances WooCommerce’s catalog display without modifying core functionality. Using an efficient post-query approach, it expands selected variations into individual product listings while maintaining full compatibility with your existing setup.
Simple Concept, Powerful Results
Before: One product → Customer must click → Discover variations → Maybe purchase
After: All variations visible → Customer sees what they want → Direct purchase
Technical Implementation That Just Works
- Smart Detection – Identifies product queries without modifying WooCommerce core
- Efficient Processing – Single optimized query fetches all needed variations
- Clean Integration – Injects variations into existing shop layouts
- Performance First – Leverages WordPress caching, no speed impact
No template overrides. No compatibility issues. Just more visible products.
Control What Displays
Not every variation needs individual display. You decide what makes sense for your store.
Global Configuration
Set store-wide rules in WooCommerce settings:
- Fashion store? Display color variations, keep sizes on product page
- Furniture store? Show material options, handle dimensions traditionally
- Electronics? Display models and configurations separately

Per-Product Flexibility
Override global settings for specific products:
- Feature products with expanded variations
- Simplify complex products with too many options
- Test different approaches without affecting your entire catalog
