Replace the default WooCommerce variable-product drop-down lists with elegant radio buttons (pills).
Just activate the plugin and you’re away – it works straight out of the box.
The easiest way to configure the pill button colours is to to go Settings > Product Variation Pills and check the “Configure the pill colours here” option.
Each button has three states it can be in:
Here’s a simple example of how to style the pills themselves. Either copy-and-paste this into your custom child theme’s style.css file, or paste it into the Additional CSS in the Customizer. Change the colours to suit your site.
/* Unselected / off */
.pv-pills .pill {
border: 1px solid grey;
border-radius: 0.5em;
transition: 0.3s background-color;
}
/* Selected / on */
.pv-pills .pill input[type="checkbox"]:checked+label {
background-color: purple;
color: white;
}
/* Hover */
.pv-pills .pill label:hover {
border: 1px solid black;
}
If you need to disable Product Variation Pills for one or more of your products, you can hook the pvp_is_active filter. Copy and paste this example into your custom child theme’s functions.php and change the values in $disable_for_ids for your products.
/**
* COnditionally disable PV Pills for some products.
*/
function custom_pvp_is_active($is_active) {
$product = get_product();
// Product IDs where you don't want Product Variation Pills.
$disable_for_ids = array(1234, 9876);
if (in_array($product->get_id(), $disable_for_ids)) {
$is_active = false;
}
return $is_active;
}
add_filter('pvp_is_active', 'custom_pvp_is_active');| Hook | Parameters | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| pvp_is_active filter | $is_active | Returns true on single product pages if WooCommerce is installed. You can return false from this if you need to disable pill mode for some products. |
| pvp_refresh_delay filter | $delay | The delay between the page loading and PV Pills initialising, in milliseconds. Default: 50 |
| pvp_heartbeat_interval filter | $interval | PV Pills runs a heartbeat in the browser to check that the pills are not out-of-sync with what WooCommerce thinks is selected. This configures the heartbeat interval in milliseconds. Default: 250 |
| pvp_enable_diagnostics filter | $is_enabled | Return true from this filter if you want to see WooCommerce’s original drop-down selectors. This can be useful when trying to understand unexpected behaviour. |
| before_enqueue_pvpills_scripts action | Fires immediately before the PV Pills enqueues its scripts and styles. | |
| after_enqueue_pvpills_scripts action | Fires immediately after the PV Pills enqueues its scripts and styles. | |
| pvpill_label_text filter | $pill_label_text, $term, $attribute_name | The text that’s used for individual pills. By default, $pill_label_text will contain $term->name. This gets sanitised through esc_html so if you want to inject HTML into the pills, you should use pvpill_label_html instead. |
| pvpill_label_html filter | $pill_label_html, $term, $attribute_name | The raw HTML that gets inserted inside the pills. By default, this is esc_html($term->name). |

Minor update to the PP Core library.
Released: 2022-10-06
Released: 2022-09-08
Fixed a bug when using custom attributes as variations, when the custom attribute terms had double-quotes in them.
Better handling of when the user clicks the "Clear" button when viewing a product variation.
Added a new feature so you can override the Ajax variations threshold. If you've got products with a large number of variations and you can select invalid product combinations with "Sorry, no products matched your selection. Please choose a different combination.", this new option lets you set a higher threshold... which means you can use a higher number of variation combinations in your variable products.
Added colour pickers to the settings page so you can style the pill buttons without using CSS.
Fixed a bug when certain types of attribute term slugs could cause an element-select query crash.
Update the Power Plugins support library.
Extended the "auto-select singletons" option so it'll try to auto-select pills whenever possible. It makes for a more intuitive user experience when selecting product variations.
Added a new options to control enable auto-select of variations when only one pill is available.
Modified the front-end pill-select logic to play nicer when multiple product attributes are available.
