now let's take a look at how to add a
variable product to your store again a
variable product is simply a product
with multiple variants so for example
for this top here we have different
colors we have light pink and also
yellow and we also have different sizes
we have small medium and large so let's
see how we can do that let's go back to
the WordPress dashboard let's go to
products and then let's click on add new
and here we're going to start with the
product name and then I'm just going to
copy and paste the description of this
product on the demo page copy and paste
and then we're going to scroll down to
product data and now we're going to
switch from simple product to variable
product and now we already get this
notice saying that we can now add
attributes to this product which are the
different variants like size or color so
let's close this window for now and
something we can also notice is that the
price field that we had with the simple
product has disappeared which is because
we can set the price for each variation
individually so let's click on
attributes and here we can add our first
attribute I'm going to start with color
and then under values we can enter the
different colors that we have for this
product like for example I have light
pink and then before typing in the
second color we have to separate each of
these variants with this icon here this
vertical line now on my keyboard This is
option seven but on your keyboard this
might be different so if you can find it
what I'm going to do is just put this
vertical line in the video description
so you can just copy and paste it from
there if you can't find it on your
keyboard so the second color we have is
yellow so I'm going to type that in and
then click on Save attributes and then
I'm going to add a second attribute for
the sizes so I'm going to click on add
new then type in size
and here we'll add a small a medium and
a large and click on Save attributes and
now to actually create all the
variations for our product we're going
to click on variations and then generate
variations and confirm so now all of our
six variants are generated we have small
medium and large for the light pink
color and small medium and large for the
yellow color now we can add prices to
each of these very ANS separately so we
can click on edit for the first variant
and then we can add a price right here
but if all of the variants actually have
the same price we can just click on ADD
price up here and then add the price to
all of the variants at the same time
however we do need to add our product
images separately for each of the
variants so let's start with the first
one by clicking on edit and then here
click on the image icon and then I'm
just going to upload the images for both
uh colors then choose the light pink one
click on set variation image then I'm
going to go to the next one which is
also light pink so again click on the
icon choose this variation and then do
the same for the last one and the same
thing for the yellow top as well but
here we're just going to choose the
image of the yellow top obviously and
that's it for setting up the variance so
let's scroll all the way to the bottom
and also add our short description I'm
just going to copy and paste that from
the demo page again and paste it in here
then let's scroll up again then let's
scroll back up and here under product
image we want to choose our default
product image so I'm just going to
choose this one right here set product
image and then let's scroll down again
to product data and click on variations
here we also want to set our default
form values so what product will will be
displayed by default when people click
on this product I'm going to set it to
light pink and small and then we can
also add some more images here to the
product Gallery so let's click on ADD
product Gallery images and then I'm
going to choose this one here and then
shift click to the second one as well so
I can select both of them at the same
time and click on add to Gallery let's
also create a new category for this
product so I'm going to click on add new
category and then I'm going to add the
category for the tops and click on add
new category then we could also add some
tags here but I'm going to skip this for
now and then I'm going to scroll up and
click on publish or update now let's
take a look at the product page so right
click on view product open in a new tab
and then here we have our product page
so this would be the default variation
light pink and small and we can change
that here as well to a yellow and then
the image will change as well and we can
also change the different sizes of these
images and then here at the bottom we
also have the two Gallery images that we
have added
