  • Useful for adding non-standard Woocommerce features.

    Some of the functions in this plugin seem like real head slappers, not because they're not good (they are), but because they feel like they should already be included with Woocommerce but aren't. Needless to say, this plugin offers additional mileage for your Woocommerce installations and has served me well for years. Thank you.

  • Awesome Plugin for adding Variants on the Shop Page to the Cart

    It solves mulitple of our headaches that we had! Our customers is a local pizza store. He wanted the customers to be able to choose the size and add the pizza to the cart on the shop page without having to go the product page every single time. Also while scrolling through the menu the page should not refresh and go back to the top every time a pizza is added to the cart. And now we had a support issue which we were helped with by the developer very professionally and fast. Everything works great now!
