Hi there,
There isn’t a built-in way to do that with WooCommerce. In this case, you can use a customized solution or a plugin. We don’t provide support for customizations but I found the following link that may interest you:
https://bobwp.com/variations-custom-fields-woocommerce/
Note that I haven’t tested this plugin and it was not developed by us, but you can reach its developers to ensure it meets your needs.
Alternatively, you can consult with a developer who can help you create a custom solution.
I hope that this helps point you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Best,
Thanks for your help @mcampal!
I have checked the plugin out, however it appears that it doesn’t add the extra fields to the “Additional Information” tab.
thas ok, I’ll eep looking.
If anyone else knows of a plugin though, please let me know.
Hi @danzmwl,
Thanks for your reply.
I’m not immediately aware of a plugin that can help with that but you can opt for a custom solution here. Therefore, we’d recommend getting in touch with a web developer or one of the customization experts listed at https://woocommerce.com/customizations/.
Cheers.
Hi there,
Just a heads up, we’ve not heard back from you in a while so I’ll go ahead and mark this thread as resolved. Hopefully, you were able to find a solution to this issue.
If you have further questions, please feel free to open a new topic.
Thanks.
I understand now that this can be sort of done by adding a product variation to the variable product, and then this will show up in the Additional information tab.
However is it possible to autofill these additional fields / hide them from the selection process? As the custom information (e.g. barcode) does not have to be selected, just related to a variation.
I note that this is discussed here https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/hide-attribute-on-product-page/ and https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53335179/woocommerce-how-to-automatically-select-variation-attribute-dropdown-field-when
