I am having somewhat of a logistical nightmare; the power of the Variants is way too much for my use and I'm trying to find a simpler way. What I am noticing is that I am creating a set of Characteristics that is applicable to each product There is about 6 characteristics (each have about 5-10 options) that I am applying to every product. The purpose is to basically give the customer some flexibility and options. Once I apply these Characteristics, there is a huge cluster of variants created, WAY too many. So many are created that it ends up timing out when I go to manage the variants, and the actual item on the site takes forever to, if it actually does, load. This is basically the global values I want. Product A: Widget Base Price: $1 Characteristics1: -blue +$1 -green +$2 -yellow +$3 Characteristics2: -small -medium -larger Characteristic3: -soft +$1 -hard The problem is, when I add the characteristics to the "Widget" product, it creates a HUGE collection of variants. I then have to go into each variant and edit the price for every individual possible combination of the characteristics. ProductA_blue_small_soft = $3 ProductA_blue_small_hard = $2 ProductA_blue_medium_soft = $3 ProductA_blue_medium_hard = $2 ProductA_blue_large_soft = $3 ProductA_blue_large_hard = $2 ProductA_green_small_soft = $4 ProductA_green_small_hard = $3 ProductA_green_medium_soft = $4 ProductA_green_medium_hard = $3 ProductA_green_large_soft = $4 ProductA_green_large_hard = $3 etc... All those variants is the problem, I don't need the product configured 100 different ways, and then having to go in and edit each one of them. Is there a way to utilize it like a form, where the product is listed with all the options, and then maybe it's assembled into a string or something with global characteristics? Or is there another way that I'm missing? Next, there's the other logistical nightmare. Lets assume that the cost of GREEN supply goes up $1, it appears that I cant simply edit the Characteristics and increase the price globally by $1, that I would have to edit every product's variants and change the price individual. Is this correct or am I missing that as well? Sorry for the length in post. I love Hikashop, it's integrating very nicely, just my minds on overload right now with the whole variants things.
