2nd Attribute
-
So I’m using a temporary domain while I setup this website. I’ve created a product that should have two attributes: Color and Size. For some reason under size, I’ve listed out Average and Large but only Average is showing. Any ideas?
The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

I ended up completely rebuilding the products. Any idea why this would happen?
One of my products: http://229.3a8.myftpupload.com/product/upstage/ behaves in a way that if you have “Large” as a cap size selected it doesn’t show the “unavailable” options in color but my other product: http://229.3a8.myftpupload.com/product/voltage/ just says “no products match”.
Why the difference?
Howdy 🙂
It’s the sheer number of existing variations on this product http://229.3a8.myftpupload.com/product/voltage/ that cause the difference
If we inspect the source code, we can see that on this product:
http://229.3a8.myftpupload.com/product/upstage/All of the available variations are available as a JSON string:
But on the other product the value there is “false”:
This behavior was introduced in WooCommerce 2.4 and is documented here: https://woocommerce.wordpress.com/2015/07/13/improving-the-variations-interface-in-2-4/
The change was made because checking for available variations is extremely server intensive and can have a significant negative impact on page load speed. If there are more than 30 variations, the availability is checked in the background via an AJAX call.
There is a filter named
woocommerce_ajax_variation_thresholdwhich can be used to adjust this behavior and an example of that can be found here: https://gist.github.com/claudiosanches/6f91ad228c2176b986b2However, that code snippet example decreases the limit, to cause your product to work like you seem to want it to work would require an increase of that limit. Do keep in mind that this does have a very likely potential to impact page load times.
Kind regards,
