Hi Jared,
Thanks for reaching out to us. Please make sure you are using the Legacy Widget not the Gutenberg widget.
You can still use the Legacy/Classic widget by adding this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-widgets/
Then check this tutorial: https://youtu.be/3HPBrRjH0kY
Note: The widget will only display the color not image swatches.
Thank You
Swatch image not appearing in product filter

I recently upgraded to Variation Swatches For WooCommerce Pro in order to enable variation swatch images on the “Filter by attribute” filter in the Woocommerce filter side bar. I am using Astra Pro for my theme.
Even with the filter option checked in the plug in settings, I do not see any variation swatch images, just text. I attempted to remove and re-add the filter widget several times but no change was noticed.
The swatches seem to work just fine on the single product page.
