Smart Variations Images & Swatches gives variable products a gallery experience designed around the attributes shoppers use to choose: color, size, material, and their combinations. Create a gallery once, assign it to the relevant attribute values, and reuse it across every matching variation.

WooCommerce now includes native galleries for individual variations. SVI is built for stores where multiple variations share the same visual assets: assign one gallery to a color or attribute combination instead of recreating it for every SKU. On the storefront, customers can browse galleries, choose variations from images and swatches, and see their selection reflected immediately.

SVI complements native WooCommerce variation galleries. When a product has no matching SVI gallery, SVI can use the selected variation’s native WooCommerce gallery, so existing product data remains useful.

Q: Is it compatible with any Theme?

A: Yes! Themes that follow the default WooCommerce implementation will usually work with this plugin. However, some themes use unorthodox methods to add their own lightbox/slider, which might interfere with the hooks this plugin needs.

Q: Does it support page builders?

A: Yes! Although some builders take over the design and hooks of the pages running them. If you run into issues, I can probably figure something out!

Q: How do I configure it to work?

  1. Create a product and build its attributes & variations
  2. Go to “SVI Variations Gallery” tab and set up the galleries according to the variations you want displayed
  3. Save the product
  4. Go to WooCommerce > SVI > Global TAB and “Enable SVI” so that it works on the Front-End
  5. Good luck with sales 🙂
  6. Watch the video if you have doubts (https://youtu.be/QMV8XBeub_o)

Q: What Browsers does SVI support?

A: SVI doesn’t support IE since it is no longer maintained by Microsoft since at least 2015 and doesn’t support ECMAScript. READ MORE

SVI is tested to run on:
– Microsoft EDGE
– Safari
– Chrome
– Firefox

Q: What happens to my theme default gallery display?

A: SVI replaces your default theme settings/options for the image & thumbnails area, so don’t expect to use any of your theme features for this area. Otherwise, SVI wouldn’t be able to do the magic. Each theme has its own structure, and it wouldn’t be feasible to create all the available layouts combinations on the same plugin, so SVI just had to build its own layout.
