Product Variations

The Product Variations widget displays the selectable options (like size, color, material) for products that have different combinations. It allows customers to choose their desired variant using dropdowns, radio buttons, or color/texture swatches, with extensive styling controls for each element and layout type.

Note: This widget displays the available product attributes. Some options (Layout, Dropdowns, Radios) are primarily used on a full Product Page, while the version used in a Product Miniature template focuses mainly on displaying Color/Texture swatches and may have fewer options available.
