How to use the Compatible feature on WooCommerce Product Builder?
Please keep in mind that WooCommerce Product Builder uses Attribute to detect which products are compatible with different steps.
At first, you need to create attributes and add these attribute to your products.
To add new attributes go to Dashboard/ Products/ Attributes
In this picture, I create a socket attributes.
Please take note that the plugin will not work with custom attributes.
After successful create a new attribute, please go to product pages to add attributes to products.
Now I will add the attribute “Socket” to 2 different products in 2 different step of WooCommerce Product Builder.
Click on the text “Custom product attribute”, look for the attribute that you have just created, then click Add.
After successful add an attribute to the product, click on “value(s)” to add a value for that attribute. You can select an existed value or create a new one.
Repeating the progress above with others products. In this case, I added the value “LGA 1151” of the attribute “Socket” for some products in “Main” and “CPU” categories.
Go to Product Builder Edit page at Dashboard/ Product Builder/ *Your Product Builder*
At this page, I have “Mainboard” categories at step 2, after the CPU categories at step 1.
Scroll down the page, you will find the defending part. Assign Main to CPU.
Done. Now after customers select a CPU with socket LGA 1151 at the first step. They will find only mainboards with socket LGA 1151 in the second step.
Attribute Widgets helps customers to search product by attributes on front-end.
To display attribute widgets on front-end, go to Dashboard/ Appearance/ Widgets and look for WC Product Builder Price Filter, WC Product Builder Rating Filter and WC Product Builder Attribute Filter. Drag and drop these widgets into WC Product Builder Sidebar. Take note that you may need to add the widget WC Product Builder Attribute Filter many times because each attribute will cost a widget.
In each widget settings, you can edit the widget title and click on the Attribute to select an attribute slug.
All product builder pages will be listed in Dashboard/ Product Builders. You can Add new/ Remove product builder here.
Adding a new product builder or click on any product builder to edit it.
Set up WooCommerce Product Builder settings at Dashboard/ Product Builder/ Settings
