Wordpress Woocommerce Variable Product Attributes based on Attributes - php

Good day everyone,
I'm working on a website using wordpress and woocommerce, now my client wanted to achieve something more than variable product of woocommerce, it goes something like this.
There should be the Combination of attributed based on which the the other attribute will change. Example : If I select 3 Seater, then may be material for 3 seaters will be different then 2 seater and based on the selection of material the color will be different.
Is this possible with WooCommerce product variable? Or I need to customize it manually from the backend? Is there any plugin for this?
Thanks for your help guys!

You can utilise WooCommerce Variations to achieve the desired results. You can do this in a few steps:
Set attributes to something like "size", "material", etc.
Set the created attributes to be used as variations.
Create combinations of variations which bind the attributes together.
You'll have to do this for each variation there could be, and adding more attributes will increase the amount of variations you have to create, but it's feasible in the system.

What you are trying to achieve can be done using Variable product option on woocommerce.
Variable product option offers you to have unique SKU for each sub product along with unique pricing and features. Then customize the website around those options.

implement configurable product with specific price for every combination of attributes

does anyone know how to achieve this functionality?
We currently have a single product with different colors and sizes and for each combination, there is an specific price for it.
We need something similar to configurable product but instead of adjusting the price based on its attribute, we need to set an specific price for each combination.
We are using magento 1.7
Weve tried using simple configurable plugin
http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/simple-configurable-products.html
together with the patch
https://github.com/organicinternet/magento-configurable-simple
but failed to make it work.
Is there any other way for magento to achieve this functionality?
Thanks,
Jay
You could just have a single attribute and adjust the prices based on this attribute, instead of having more than one attribute.

For this functionality I think you should use configurable products based on 2 attributes, color & size. Grouped products usually used for a sets of simple products which don't linked by attributes

PrestaShop Product Combinations

Is there a way to create Product "Combinations" with Categories instead of attributes? Either from the backend or programmatically?
I have a wine database and the same bottle can be sold by two different "categories" but price may differ.
A wine seller will be stored as a "Category" to cater for my website's needs.
The easy way for you is to keep combinations based on attributes, and use the layered block instead of categories block. You can also create a custom categories block with your wine seller attribute.
I discouraged you to modify the combinations logic, it's too complex and will not be update proof.
Depending on what you are trying to do, you can customize the view and pricing by customer groups. To give you the best advice I would need to know what exactly you are trying to accomplish on the front end.

Hiding a custom option on a product in Magento

I have several hundred products in my Magento store, all of which have a very similar set of custom options. I used one product as a template, and copied its custom options to all of the other products so that all of the products currently have the same set of custom options.
I would like to disable or hide certain custom options for some products in my store without deleting the option completely. Right now, I only have the ability to delete an option for a product entirely. For example, some products cannot currently be ordered in different colors, but they might be later; I'd like to be able to disable the color option rather than delete it and re-add the entire list of colors later.
Does anyone have any similar experience who can provide me with some help with this problem? Thanks, I really appreciate the help!
Using custom options for attributes like "color" is not a correct approach for Magento. Magento has special product type - Configurable product for the catalog structure you're trying to achieve.
Here's benefits you'll get from using configurable product instead of custom options:
Automatic stock management. You won't need to enable-disable your custom options as soon as some physical item is out of stock - Magento will do it for you.
You won't have to copy all custom options to a new product you create. The attribute for the Attribute set this product belongs to will automatically be available for new entries.
You will have ability to filter your products by the color attribute on Category page using Layered Navigation.
Here's the guide how to create configurable product from the official Magento wiki.
