Question about Variations

    I’m testing this out for a client and from my testing, I just want to confirm that setting up a variable donation product and designating a price for each variable doesn’t actually set a price for the variable. We want to use it for Sponsorships and I was going to use the variations for each sponsorship level but it seems that setting a price for each variation does nothing. I think it will still work for the most part because I put the amount of each sponsorship level in the titles so that they can match the donation amount to the sponsorship level but it would be nice if you could just set the price for each variable and not have to do the amount separately via the donation form.

    Hi amplenna,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    You’ve hit on an important distinction in how the plugin operates. One of the core concepts of Donation Platform for WooCommerce is flexibility; the forms are designed to let donors freely choose their amount within your specified limits.

    Because the “Donation” product type overrides standard WooCommerce price handling to allow for these custom inputs, individual variation prices are currently ignored.

    I like the “Sponsorship Level” use case, though 🙂 While it’s not yet supported to lock prices to variations right now, I am looking into ways to support fixed-price tiers or “Product-linked” amounts in future updates.

    In the meantime, your workaround of matching the title to the donation amount is likely the most effective way to guide users through that process.

    Best,
    Jonas

    Great, thank you for the response! I appreciate the flexibility but it’d be a nice feature to include.
