    Hi,

    I have created a bunch of fields, all grouped in one section, and I have noticed a dramatic behavior.

    If I don’t set a Display Rule for both the fields and the section (leave them empty or remove any existing rules), the fields will show for ALL products across the website.

    I suggest the opposite behavior is more sensible. If no Display Rules are set, then the field(s) should not be displayed for ANY product.

    Thank you

    The current behavior of our plugin is to show the fields for all the product if there is no conditional rule set for the fields. Inorder to show the field for a specific product we can provide a conditional rule for that field based on the product.

    This behavior is set because if someone has more than 100 product in the shop and need to show the fields for all the products then they need to set a conditional rule based on each product which will be very difficult. Inorder to make it easier we have set it like this.

    If you don’t want to show the field that you have created then you can disable it in our plugin.

    We hope this will help.

    Further, we have forwarded your suggestion to our technical team. They will look into it.

    Once again thank you for your valuable suggestion.

    Thank you!

    I disagree.

    There is already an option to show the fields for all products:
    Product > Equals to/ In > All Products.
    Same thing can be achieved by using categories and apply Display Rules per categories.

    Yes, unused fields can be disabled to prevent them from showing on all products but my worry is people will (definitely) forget at some point and their website will be messed up when wrong fields will show on wrong products.

    Risky!

    I am sorry, I missed that option.

    We have already forwarded your suggestion to our technical team. They will check the feasibility of adding your suggestion.

    Thank you!
