How Do I Change the Default Variation in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 2:22 pm

When you first install WooCommerce, the default variation is set to “Simple.” If you want to change the default variation to something else, here’s how:

1. Log in to your WordPress site and go to WooCommerce > Settings.

2.

On the General tab, scroll down to the Product Data section and select the Default Product Type.

3. Choose the type of product you want to be the default from the dropdown list and click Save Changes.

Now when you go to create a new product, it will default to the type of product you selected. For example, if you selected Variable product, the product data fields will look different than they did before because variable products have more options.

Conclusion:

Changing the default variation in WooCommerce is a quick and easy process that can be done in just a few steps. By doing this, you can make sure that all of your products are created with the correct settings from the start.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, changing the default variation in WooCommerce can break your online store. Make sure you know what you are doing before you make any changes.
