How to Add Product Variants to Your Store

This guide shows you how to create product variants for options such as size, color, or type. You can then configure each variant separately with its own price, SKU, weight, and stock settings.

  • A product already added to your store.

  • The options you want to offer, such as size or color.

  • The values for each option, such as Small, Medium, and Large.

⚠️ Limit: Each product can have a maximum of 32 variants. The total number of combinations must not exceed 32.

💡 Tip: Keep option names and values short and easy for customers to understand.


3. Check the Variant Limit

Variants are created automatically from the combinations of your product options.

For example:

  • 3 sizes × 3 colors = 9 variants

  • 4 sizes × 3 colors = 12 variants

The total number of variants must not exceed 32.

4. Configure Each Variant

Once your options have been added, the variants are created automatically.

You can configure each variant individually, including:

  • Price

  • SKU

  • Weight – if using weight-based shipping

  • Stock level – if inventory tracking is enabled

  • Visibility – choose whether the variant is visible to customers

5. Hide a Variant Without Deleting It

If you want to temporarily remove a variant from your website:

  1. Open the variant settings.

  2. Set the variant to hidden/invisible.

  3. Save your changes.

The variant will no longer be visible to customers, but you can make it visible again later.

6. Save Your Changes

Click Save when you have finished configuring your variants.

Preview your product before publishing to make sure all options work as expected.
