Hide Parent of only Enabled Variations

  • Hi guys

    I have some product variations that I am displaying as Single products. In a certain category.

    But I want to hide the parent product, but when I do, it hides all my variable/variations for other products – which I don’t have set to show as single products. As I want them displayed normally.

    I only want to hide the parent product of the variations I have selected to show as singles. But all over variable products to show as normal in their categories.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Link is my staging site.

    It is a Christmas Category, displaying items that are special edition for xmas, some are variable products and simple products. And I have MCP enabled for each variation I want to display. But the parent products are there and when I select Hide Parent Variable Product – it hides for all my other products that are variations.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @pulsemedianz

    Thanks for that idea!

    Please update our plugin to the latest version 2.0 and you will see a new option here https://www.screencast.com/t/jSL7hnT74Q3

    As an addition – I would like to select on the product itself whether I want the parent product to be visible.

    Many of my variable products have variations on Language or size – only some products have variations on color; and even for those I do not want to show them all as variable products. In the current solution I would need to add all the products I want to show the parent product for in the “Exclude from hide variable” field.

    In my case I would be looking for the following options:
    – Variable product with two languages => show parent product only;
    – Variable product with two colors => show both as single product and hide variable parent product;
    – Variable product with two colors and 5 sizes => show two single products (one for each color) and hide variable parent product;
    – Variable product with 5 colors and 5 sizes => show only (variable) parent product

    It might be an option to exclude specific attributes from generating single products (this would not enable my last option above, but might be easier to implement).
