Critical Price Display (Front-end) and Performance Issues on Variable Products

Subject: Critical Price Display (Front-end) and Performance Issues on Variable Products

Dear WoodMart Support Team,

I have created a variable product with multiple attributes (heights, etc.), each having distinct prices. The behavior is correct in the back-office (the price updates with selection), but several critical issues are occurring on the front-end, and I have configuration questions:

Critical Issues & Bugs:

CRITICAL BUG – Dynamic Price is not displayed at all on the front-end: When I select a variant (a height) in the dropdown menu, the updated price corresponding to that variant does not appear at all above the “Add to Cart” button. The price remains invisible.

Product Link (Clone Site): https://supportwoordmart.easychr.com/produit/mini-cellule/

BUG – Very slow Add-to-Cart Button: When adding a variant to the cart, the “Add to Cart” button spins for an excessively long time before the product is actually added. This delay is a critical performance issue.

Configuration and Design Questions:

Initial Price Range Display: The product displays a price range by default (e.g., €6,000.00 – €20,000.00). Is it possible to have the first variant automatically selected by default (instead of “Choose an option”) when landing on the product page? This would display the price of the first variant directly and eliminate the price range.

Price Display Size after selection: How can I increase the size of the price text that appears after variant selection (above the “Add to Cart” button) via theme options or CSS?

Variant Display Style (Checkboxes): For another variant (e.g., “Door Location”), I would like to offer the options using checkboxes instead of a dropdown menu. Is it possible to use this type of attribute display style with the WoodMart theme?

Price Behavior with a Second Variant: If I add a second variant that impacts the price (e.g., Color), do the prices automatically accumulate (e.g., Base Price + Color Price)?

I am providing the admin login details for my clone site so you can perform your checks and help me configure these options correctly.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Kind regards,

Hello,

01. After selecting the variation, the prices of the variations are updated above the add to cart button.

See Screenshot for clarification: https://postimg.cc/3dGnFJtJ

02. For the slow add to cart button, please deactivate all the 3rd party plugins and activate only theme-required plugins on the site and then check the issue. I am sure your issue will be solved. Then, activate the 3rd party plugins one by one and check which plugin is creating the issue for you.

03. For the initial Price Range Display, go to your product edit page in the dashboard and scroll down to the “Variations” section. Under “Default Form Values”, select the variation you want to be pre-selected when the product page loads.

Additionally, you can adjust how prices are displayed from:

Theme Settings > Shop > Variable Products

Hide “to” price – hides the higher price in the range, showing only the lower one.

Remove duplicate prices for variable products – ensures the price updates dynamically when a variation is selected.

Once the default variation is set, the product page will automatically display the selected variation and its price instead of a price range.

04. For the price text size, Try to add the following custom css code in Theme Settings > Custom CSS:

.woocommerce-variation-price, .woocommerce-variation-availability {
    font-size: 20px;
}

05. For the variations style, You need to choose the swatch type from products > attributes. Navigate to Products > Attributes, then click on “Configure terms” for the attribute.

For each term, set the Swatch Type: https://ibb.co/svdRrfjM

Here is the Documentation: https://xtemos.com/docs-topic/variable-products-and-swatches

06. In WooCommerce, variation prices do not automatically accumulate. Each variation has its own defined price based on the combination of attributes (e.g., Size + Color).
