Issues with the “Linked Variations” function

Hello,

as you can see in the first two screenshots, I was able to use your “Linked Variations” function to successfully link the parent products of our “BOXXI” series with the option “Number of Boxes.”

Now I wanted to do the same for the “ALVARA” series (see URL: Mülltonnenbox ALVARA
).
For this, I go to Products > Linked Variations > ALVARA Number. In the “Products” search field, I try to add the parent products via their IDs where the “Linked Variations” should be displayed:

Mülltonnenbox ALVARA 1er – ID: 18560

Mülltonnenbox ALVARA 2er – ID: 18586

Mülltonnenbox ALVARA 3er – ID: 18612

Mülltonnenbox ALVARA 4er – ID: 18638

The issue: your search filter only finds the variations, but not the parent products with the correct IDs that I actually need for linking.
I assume this may be because the parent products have too many variations assigned. For example, when I enter “Mülltonnenbox ALVARA 1er” into the filter, the product with the correct ID is not displayed. Even trying it with “Mülltonnenbox ALVARA 1er ID:(18560)” does not work.

How can I access the parent products in this case, or what can I do to solve this issue?

I have provided you with login details in the private messages for testing this yourself.

Thank you for your support!
Best regards,
Markus

Hello,

The “Linked variations” lets you create separate simple products and group them into one bundle by a common attribute, rather than creating a variable product with different variations. Each group is created based on a single common attribute, and the products included in that group must share that specific attribute.

Please follow this documentation and check how it works.

Hello,

thank you for your support. I do understand the logic of the linked variations – that’s not the issue.
My problem is that in the mentioned search field (see screenshot), the parent products cannot be found even when using the correct product IDs. Instead, only the variation products appear.

Interestingly, it works perfectly with “BOXXI,” but not with “ALVARA.”
Could you please test this yourself? On my side, the behavior can be reproduced consistently.

Thank you very much for your help and feedback!

Hello,

Add the following code to the child theme and check it

add_action( 'woodmart_get_numberposts_by_query_autocomplete', function () {
	return 100;
});
