Duplicating global groups

Gareth Harris — Wed, 13 Jan 2021 11:38:38 +0000

By default, global groups are displayed on a single product page. To duplicate a global group is simple – just hover over the group and click ‘Copy’.

However, you can choose to edit groups as custom post types. If you wish to duplicate a global group when you’re using this method, follow these steps:

Edit the group you wish to duplicate
Click the ‘Duplicate group’ link in the ‘Parent Products’ section

Your group will now be duplicated.

Edit global groups as post types

Gareth Harris — Mon, 09 Mar 2020 11:47:30 +0000

By default, global groups are displayed on a single page. However, you can opt to display and edit each global group in the same way that you would any other custom post type.

To enable this, go to WooCommerce > Settings > Product Add-Ons and check the ‘Display groups as post type’ option.

This is a solution to improve page speed and performance if you see an issue on the global add-ons page.

When changing this setting, it’s always worth taking a back-up of your site first – particularly if you have a large number of global groups and fields.

Display global groups according to attribute or taxonomy

By default, global groups can be displayed depending on product category (as well as universally or by specific product).

If you’d prefer to display global groups depending on product attribute or an alternative taxonomy, e.g. Brand, you can use the following snippet.

Just enter the slug of the taxonomy you wish to use instead of product category. In this example, the plugin will allow you to choose specific Colour attributes:

Global add-ons

Global add-ons give you the ability to create groups of Product Add-Ons fields and apply them to multiple products in one go. You still create fields in exactly the same way so, if you haven’t already done so, please read this article on creating your first field.

Creating global add-ons

To create a new global group, go to Product Add-Ons > Global Add-Ons.

Click ‘Add New Global Group’ to create a new group of Product Add Ons fields.

Rules

You need to define a rule that will determine when to display the group of Product Add-Ons fields. You can select from the following options:

Display on all products
Display for a list of specified products
Display if the product belongs to a list of specified categories

Creating fields

You create groups and fields in exactly the same way that you do for individual products.
