How to Add WooCommerce Additional Variation Images & Videos

WooCommerce additional variation images & videos offer your product page visitors a quick preview of different angles and a detailed display of a product variation. 

What is the product variation? 

You may sell some products that are similar in design but different in size, color, materials, etc. The product variation or swatch feature enables you to list and display your similarly designed products of multiple colors, sizes, etc., in an organized way that is more likely to match customers’ choices. As a result, customers can quickly find their desired products, and you get more orders. 

However, regardless of the main products and variations, a detailed display with a beautiful additional image gallery is the game changer for your business. 

In this blog, I’ll show you how to add additional product images and videos for variable products to provide quick and detailed product display and boost sales.
