Multiple single products imported from CRM need to group into 1 variable product

    Hi,

    My problem is i have multiple products imported from DEAR System that are each one variation. It is for meals e.g.

    product 1 = My Title1, 5 days, 1200 calories, 2 meals
    product 2 = My Title1, 5 days, 1600 calories, 2 meals
    product 2 = My Title1, 7 days, 1600 calories, 3 meals
    etc

    I need to make one grouped product manually, which is fine, and add all the products that relate to it. But instead of just having the normal list of every product and quantity i would like:

    My Title1 group product

    price from $x to $xx

    chose days
    3 days, 5 days, 7 days

    calories
    1200 | 1600 | 2200 |

    number of meals
    2 meals | 3 meals

    Add to cart

    so they choose one of each and then that will select the individual product and use that price when they add to cart. The individual products should not be able to click on and view (although can live with them being viewable if too difficult)

    This is the same as how magento does group products.

    Is there anyway I can do this in woocommerce? Any plugins that would do this? I’ve looked at product bundles and configurable products and it doesn’t seem like that would work?

    Hi there!

    What you described would be possible with creating just one variable product and include all the variations in it. Is there a reason why you don’t want to combine all these 3 products into 1 product?

    Hi @thup90,

    Thanks for your reply! Yep that would be much better, but the client wants to sync all products via their DEAR system CRM. In that system they are all single products. So when it inserts them into woocommerce via the api it inserts them as single products (it can’t insert them as variable ones). So I’m stuck with hundreds of products.

    Ideally the layout would be more like a variable product for the grouped one and the user selects the options from a dropdown or button then when they add it to cart it will add the single product that matches it.

    We’ve got them to move from magento to woocommerce but this is one of the things from magento they liked.

    Just wondering if any idea on how to do this?

    I understand you want to group products and combine variations and display it as a variable product. However, we don’t have anything that can do this on WooCommerce.com

    You might need to look into customizations or a third-party solution. For assistance with customization or development with your site, we recommend reaching out to someone on our customizations page: https://woocommerce.com/customizations/

    ok thanks – will take a look into it myself. Was just hoping someone had already done it first! haha

    I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
