 * using WordPress 4.5 Beta 3
    The step value does no longer work with newest update.
   Example: step value 2, minimum 2. Therefore clients might buy 2, 4, 6, 8,…. products.
   In the fronend, the minimum of 2 is shown, but if I click on the «+» or «-», 
   the step value no longer works. It only adds one by one. Is this no longer possible?
   I tried to deactivate all other plugins, but the problem still exists. Until 
   now, It was only possible to chose 2, 4, 6, etc.
 * Thanks for your help

 * If you have increment buttons it means you’re using another plugin or your theme
   is adding them in (unless you’re talking about the browsers built in buttons).
   Most likely the increment buttons are not correctly picking up the right step
   value. Do you have a link to you site where the issue is occurring?

 * The increment buttons are from the theme. With the plugin »quanitities and units
   for woocommerce«, the layout looks very good (as originally) but then the 2-step
   does not work. By deactivating the plugin, the 2-step does work, but the layout
   looks very bad. I actually used this plugin to «override» the bad layout. Here
   you can see the problem: [http://www.indianocean.ch/test/frottierwaesche/produkt/esprit-grade-gaeste-handtuch/](http://www.indianocean.ch/test/frottierwaesche/produkt/esprit-grade-gaeste-handtuch/)
   
   This product might only be sold in 2/4/6/8/… pieces. If the «+» button is clicked,
   the step is going up only by 1 (instead of 2). Actually, the plugin is activated.
   As soon as I deactivate the plugin, steps are correctly, but in a very bad layout.
   Please check and if you want to see it without plugin, let me know and I will
   deactivate it. I’m working on a test version. thks for your help

 * You’re most likely going to have to remove the code from the theme for the built
   in increment buttons. They are conflicting with the QI plugin. Probably the best
   solution is to not use QI buttons and just style the increment buttons using 
   your own CSS.

 * Hi Nick, first of all, thank for this plugin it’s simple and user friendly, just
   what I needed.
 * The only problem comes with the step values. The browser built in UP and DOWN
   buttons are not catching the 5 products step I configured.
 * Any ideas of how to solve it?
 * Thanks!

 * This is most likely due to your theme already providing increment buttons and
   overriding QI’s functionality. Are you sure that your theme’s javascript is not
   overriding the increment button functionality. Most theme’s don’t implement the
   increment button functionality correctly. The 2 most common issues are rounding
   errors, and forgetting to implement the correct step values. Can you provide 
   a link?

 * I’m having the same issue in my site: the minimum quantity has been applied but
   the incrementals go by 1 instead of 6. Example: [http://tinyurl.com/jp4573k](http://tinyurl.com/jp4573k).
   Ok, so the theme is including some buttons that are not compatible with the plugin.
   What is the adjustment that has to be made in order to work?
 * Any pointers will help very much, thank you.

 * I would recommend disabling your theme’s increment buttons (this varies from 
   easy to difficulty on most themes), then installing [Quantity Increment Buttons](https://wordpress.org/plugins/quantity-increment-buttons-for-woocommerce/).
