Disabling shop/archive swatches for certain products

Rainer Rösing

Hello, for some products it does not make sense to show variation swatches on the shop/archive page. For example when a product has one color but various sizes. In such a case I don’t need to show any swatches. How can I disable that without disabling swatches for ALL products? This would be an important feature.

Hi Rainer,

Add the following snippet using Code Snippets plugin or put the below code inside your child theme’s functions.php:

add_filter('disable_woo_variation_swatches_archive_product', function($default, $product){
$target = [14]; //Insert the product id’s inside the target. For Example: [14,45]
if( in_array( $product->get_ID(), $target ) ){
return true;
}
return $default;
}, 10, 1);

Note: Insert the product ID inside the $target variable as instructed inside the code block.

Cheers!

Thanks for the snippet but I have too many products and would need to enter also the IDs for all translations. Maybe I can make it work with a custom field value (like a checkbox in the product settings) instead of an ID. Or I hope that this will be integrated at some point.

I tried this, maybe you have a hint to make it work 🙂

 

function woo_swatches() {
if ( get_field( ‘custom_field_hide_swatches’ ) ) {
add_filter( ‘disable_woo_variation_swatches_archive_product’, ‘__return_true’ );
}
}
add_action( ‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item’, ‘woo_swatches’ );

Hi Rainer,

I am afraid it is a custom request. I don’t know the field you are using an array or something else.

I have already given a hint. If you need any further modification, please hire a developer.

Thank You

Fair enough. But the code you posted seems not to work unfortunately.

Critical error caused. This is the debug information. Are you sure your code is correct?
