This is a must-have plugin for all WooCommerce users that have variable products. By default, WooCommerce shows a dropdown menu with all the variations of the product. Depending on the number of variations, your visitors need to click several times in order to get their ideal variation.
With this free WooCommerce Swatches Plugin, it becomes so much easier for your visitors to choose their variation. At once they see all the options. Not only on the product page. Also on the shop archive pages. This will make the whole shopping experience for your customers better, which will result in more sales.
With the WooCommerce Variation Swatch plugin, you can easily assign your custom attributes to swatches or create swatches for your global attributes. In this tutorial, I show you both options. You can also configure the look and feel of the swatches. The plugin is completely free, which makes this the best WooCommerce Swatches plugin since similar plugins offer the same options for a premium price.
