Create default variations in WooCommerce - php

I'm using WooCommerce plugin to create an e-shop with Wordpress. All the products will have the same variations and the same price.
There will be many products, is there any way to create variations by default?

Here are some really handy tools I've used for variations:
This plugin allows you to import all of your attributes/variations (and other product information) from a CSV or XML file. So you could very easily apply the same variations to many products:
wpallimport.com
Or this one is handy for applying the same attributes to many products: http://www.najeebmedia.com/n-media-woocommerce-personalized-product-options-manager/
I would much prefer the first plugin, however, as I'm currently using both for a project.
Feel free to contact me on Facebook if you'd like to discuss further! (facebook.com/kingd18)

How to migrate OpenCart to WooCommerce

I have 15000 products and 200 categories which I want to transfer from opencart to my new store developed in woocommerce , I did reseach and I found 2 plugins Cart2Cart and LiteExtension but those are expensive for me and I dont want to use a paid plugins or service, is there any way or script or solution that I get open cart products and import in woocommerce?
I only want to import
Products (SKU, PICTURE, VARIABLES, TAGS, ASSOCIATED CATEGORIES)
Categories
I do not need customers or any other data
Please help.
Once you have exported your products in CSV/XML, you can easily import your products into new WooCommerce store.
There is a free WooCommerce product import extension plugin which will help you to do that very easily. sample CSV
A general way of moving the products and categories will be exporting them into an easily accessible format (csv, json, etc) and import them into your new webstore.
Opencart marketplace provides the extension for exporting your products, categories etc... and you can import them into csv format then you can use them to import into the woocommerce platform.
I will provide a link to the opencart extension which is actually free.
Opencart: Import/Export Extension
I would suggest direct database migration from Opencart to Woocommerce, which seems to be the cleanest way. There are tools outthere which can help you do this. This one is free, and made by a famous developer, check it out: Migrate Shopping Carts to Woocommerce
When migrating from OpenCart to WooCommerce, you should consider some issues:
OpenCart uses Custom Options for product while WooCommerce uses Variations. In this case, I recommend you to install WooCommerce Product Extra Option plugin.
SEO meta title and meta description: this data is very important for your website's ranking, don't forget to migrate it. You could use Yoast SEO or Rank Math plugin to handle your SEO data in WooCommerce.
For your question about the migration tools, free plugins will not be able to afford the 2 issues above, pro versions would be better. But if you are looking for a migration tool that can cover the problems listed above, I recommend you to use this OpenCart to WooCommerce migration tool of Next-Cart. This is a really good migration software at a much more affordable price.

Is there a way to Export Product Variations from WooCommerce and into a '.csv'/Excel file?

I am currently working on a WordPress website, with WooCommerce functionality.
I would like to provide the client with a full breakdown of all the product variations that are currently on the website. For 1 product alone, there are over 500 Product Variations. Rather than type all these up manually, is there not a way I could export these into a .csv or Excel file etc?
I have looked on the internet and can see a few Plugins but would rather try and figure this out without a Plugin.
Thanks, in advance.
Just ran into this myself, quick findings:
the built-in WooCommerce product exporter doesn't export the variations alongside simple products
Store Exporter Deluxe doesn't either
WP All Export Pro does the job
Product Import Export Plugin For WooCommerce by WebToffee looks promising, but I haven't tried it yet.
You can see the simplest plugin for doing this here.

Magento tier pricing using configurable products and custom options to display pricing table

I am developing a website on Magento and the layout/functionality i would like to achieve is: http://route1print.co.uk/printing-products/business-cards-450gsm-silk-?productTypeId=3#?pt=3&lt=5&ps=57&pat=40&prt=1
The ideal goal functionality is to display a table as such showing different pricing of the product based on quantity and delivery date.
I have tried to achieve so using the standard magento installation. I have looked around the web and the closest tutorial/guide i have seen is http://www.code4business.de/tier-prices-for-magento-custom-options-en/
What i believed would have achieved the desired functionality was using Magento tier pricing based on the quantity and using the custom options to defer the prices for each quantity dependent on the end user's chosen delivery. However, Magento's custom options by standard doesn't allow you to add different tier pricing custom options.
Following the guide i have attempted to use both extensions and following the code written by the developer without success.
I am happy to switch the project unto woocommerce if woocommerce is easier or offers the functionality in order to produce a pricing table as such using tier pricing/varients.
My question is, weither Woocommerce or Magento, what are my options to developing a pricing table as such?
Thank you in advance

Magento Customization Issues

I am building a custom tool where the user can play around with the product (customize parts and add colors) and then go ahead and buy. I have so far built this in PHP but would like to integrate it with my Magento store. Is there a way I can connect this to Magento so that the product can be passed through Add to Cart etc?
Thanks.
Magento already has a support for this.
Check the configurable products, or the Custom options tab in the product admin edit page. You can also use bundle products.
If none of these fit your needs then you may want to rephrase your question and explain what exactly do you need.

Creating product matrix for magento

Currently i am messing with one requirement in magento which is something related to creating a product matrix for t shirt products, which will look something like this :
Till i researched on google i got it will be done by configurable products, or can it done via eu.linnlive.com this extension, or i have to create grouped product with attributes, if anyone can give me proper way to do this task in magento then it will be very helpful, i just want the way to do this. and is this thing will done by extra coding part or only by using magento default features.
You can try use this module, or create your own.
http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/product-matrix.html
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
