Title: Big bug – Incorrect variation error message Last modified: January 30, 2026 --- # Big bug – Incorrect variation error message * [swcom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swcom/) * (@swcom) * [4 months, 1 week ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bug-incorrect-variation-error-message/) * Hello guys ! When selecting **a variation on any variable product**, an error message is displayed: * > _“The selected product is not a variation of Matrices Adapt SuperCap steel > 0.030 mm…”_ * Issue: - the message refers to **a different, unrelated product** - the selected variation is **valid** - the error appears after interacting with variable products * **Steps to reproduce:** 1. Open a variable product 2. Select any variation 3. Navigate to another variable product 4. Select a variation again → the error message appears and refers to the previous product * Expected behavior: - no error should appear when a valid variation is selected - variation validation must apply only to the **current product** * ![](https://wordpress.org/3d0b4109-d47e-4c62-82c6-a9830e8a3ff6) * It looks like the plugin keeps an **incorrect product_id / parent_id** or a ** persistent WooCommerce notice** (`wc_add_notice`) between products (session / AJAX / fragments not reset). * **Version check / regression info:** * I can confirm this is a **regression**: the issue happens with **v3.3.98** but it **does not happen** with **v3.3.96** (same setup / same theme). * So the bug seems introduced between **3.3.96 → 3.3.98**. - This topic was modified 4 months, 1 week ago by [swcom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swcom/). - This topic was modified 4 months, 1 week ago by [swcom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swcom/). * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fbug-incorrect-variation-error-message%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Thread Starter [swcom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swcom/) * (@swcom) * [4 months, 1 week ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bug-incorrect-variation-error-message/#post-18803473) * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/a/C5ysRMi) * Plugin Author [Clayton R](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrclayton/) * (@mrclayton) * [4 months, 1 week ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bug-incorrect-variation-error-message/#post-18803482) * Hi [@swcom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swcom/) * Thank you for contacting Payment Plugins. I was not able to replicate the error when selecting a variation on the product page you linked to. The cart calculation sent the product and variation ID info and the server responded with correct data. * I did notice there was a script duplicating every request. It was coming from this script: [https://dev3dlight.vectronweb.com/superpwa-sw.js?2.2.40](https://dev3dlight.vectronweb.com/superpwa-sw.js?2.2.40) * Are you able to replicate the error when using a private browser mode? * Kind Regards * Thread Starter [swcom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swcom/) * (@swcom) * [4 months, 1 week ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bug-incorrect-variation-error-message/#post-18804558) * Hi ! * Thank you for your quick reply. I have just repeated the test with SuperPWA disabled, and I am still getting the error. In private browsing mode, I select a first variable product, then another variable product (also selecting a variation), and the error occurs again. * Plugin Author [Clayton R](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrclayton/) * (@mrclayton) * [4 months, 1 week ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bug-incorrect-variation-error-message/#post-18804592) * Hi [@swcom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swcom/) * You appear to have disabled the express buttons on your product page.
