Neutral attribute ( not changing price )

    Hi,

    I need to build a site with very few products but they will have a few attributes, generating a lot of possible combinations. Hell a lot.

    Fortunately, most of these attributes have no influence on the product price.

    But how can I set an attribute neutral, so that it does not generate variations.
    In fact, it should be displayed in the product page, so that the buyer can choose the option … and that’s all.

    Thank you for any idea.

    Let me be more precise :
    Here are the attributes :

    1°) Hood ( yes or no )
    2°) Color ( 7 possible colors )
    3°) Color of the lining ( 7 possible colors )

    The price on depends on the hood.
    How can I configure this 98 variations … not manually …

    Hi @minutepapillon

    Thanks for reaching out!

    If I understand you correctly, you would like to create the other attributes (Color and Color of the Lining) without using them as variations but they can still be selected on front end, right?

    I did some research and found this code could be a good starting point:

    I tested the code on my site and it is working on my end. Please make sure to create a global attribute first, for the attributes that will not be used as variations.

    Hope this helps!

    Thank you Xue.

    That’s indeed a good solution. Although I worry about the maintenance of that kind of code for no update is expected. Is it ?

    There is also the lazy man’s solution :

    Hello @minutepapillon,

    Well, in both cases we can’t guarantee that the code/plugin will work now or in the future as both solutions are not made by the WooCommerce team.

    Just make sure to add the code using the Code snippet plugin so it doesn’t get removed when WooCommerce is updated.

    If you’re looking for a custom solution, you can work with a WooExpert.

    Cheers!
