Hello,

Go to the settings of the product that has variations and uncheck the “Used for variations” field in the Product Data -> Attributes.

Hello,

The swatches can be disabled when your attribute items don’t have any color or activated the “Text swatch” option.

As a result, the dropdown will appear: https://monosnap.com/file/r1YVHznGd3X3oyM3x99PiJqrsp1jP0

Hello,
Thank you this option works. Please advise is there any reference or doc available which we can follow to completely disable the Swatych from theme coding level. Swatch is creating a huge load on product pages.

Hello,

The thing is that if you override the swatches file, you can have the issue with the styles so in this situation better to do it manually as I mentioned above.

I sincerely appreciate your understanding in this matter. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any further questions.

Kind Regards
