    I have looked all over and can not find a solution so may not be possible but …

    I have a single product which has 16 price variations (this is how the data is fed to woocommerce via an api feed). I need a way to assign each variation to specific dates in year that they are available for purchase and have a front end calendar so if a customer for example date picks 1st August then only the variations that have that date set would be displayed, all other variations would be hidden ?

    Is there a calendar plugin which can do this or a way to do this with dropdowns by month, day , year etc ?

    Any advice would be gratefully received

    Do you mind sharing more details about your goal so we can assist you further?

    • Is this a physical product? Or is it like booking something?
    • As I understand it is the same product but the price will change depending on the date the customer purchases it?

    Hi,

    So the product is a virtual entrance ticket and there are 48 variations. Each variation is basically a duration and a season i.e 2-Day Entry Low Season, 3-Day Entry Regular Season, 4-Day Entry Peak Season etc with two attributes Adult, Child.

    I need to be able to assign each variation various dates throughout the year that that individual variation is available for purchase, hiding the other variations not set those dates.

    Example: Customer picks a start date of Aug 1st from a calendar or a set of dropdowns etc – the only options that would then be displayed would be the Adult & Child variations for 2-Day Peak, 3-Day Peak, 4-Peak & 4-Day Special Peak.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Thanks

    Hi @mtgagents2021,

    It sounds like you’re looking for a way to manage the booking and availability of your virtual entrance tickets based on the season and duration. Am I right?

    If yes, WooCommerce indeed has a solution for this. You can consider using the WooCommerce Bookings extension. This extension allows you to create bookable products with date-based availability and pricing variations. It’s a robust tool that can handle complex booking scenarios like yours.

    With WooCommerce Bookings, you can set up your product variations and assign specific availability rules to each one. This means you can hide or show variations based on the selected date. The extension also integrates with a front-end calendar, so customers can pick a date and see the available options for that day.

    Please note that while this extension offers many flexibility and customization options, there might be a learning curve to set everything up as per your needs. If you need any more clarification, contact us at Woo.com > My Account > Support. You may need to create an account before you can access that page.

    I hope this provides some clarity. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

    Hi,
    Thanks for this recommendation. I’ll take a look at that extension and see if it’ll work with our single products that have these multiple variations or if we need to complete set up the products as new.

    Thanks

    Hi @mtgagents2021, no problem, take your time!

    As far as I understand, you’re currently working with variable products; with this extension, you’d work with a new product type entirely called “Bookable products,” and you can define a range of times or dates to add multiple prices accordingly. So you’d have to change your current setup, yeah.

    You can start by checking here: https://woo.com/document/introduction-to-woocommerce-bookings/woocommerce-bookings-store-manager-guide/#costs-for-bookable-products which I think you’ll love!

    I hope this helps so far!
