<h2>Add External Links for Product Retailers or Distributors to Your Products</h2>
<p>External / Affiliate products are a great feature of WooCommerce, but they have one major limitation: you can’t sell a product yourself <strong>and</strong> link to the same product on a retailer or distributor’s website. This extension removes that limitation, and also allows you to list <strong>multiple retailers</strong> rather than one affiliate link.</p>
<p>Easily setup retailers or distributors for products in your store, including a URL to their website, then assign them to individual products. Customers can then purchase the item directly on your store, or they can visit the retailer or distributor’s website to purchase.</p>
<p>Perfect for products sold through <strong>multiple sales channels</strong>, such as a book available directly on-site, through Amazon, for Kindle, and Nook.</p>

<h3>Easily Add Retailers / Distributors</h3>
<p>Add your retailers or distributors quickly and then assign them a default link. After they’ve been added, you can assign them to products and set a unique URL per product. This is useful to link the product directly to the related product on the retailer’s / distributor’s website.</p>

<p>Add retailers to specific products:</p>

<p>You can now also use buttons rather than a drop-down menu to display retailers to your customers by simply clicking “Use Buttons” while creating your product:</p>

<p>You can even opt to only show retailers when your product is out of stock, letting you generate referral revenue instead of backorders!</p>
<p>This allows you to sell products directly, or generate revenue via your affiliate / referral links with other retailers (such as Amazon). Give customers purchasing options without losing out on revenue!</p>

Product Retailers

<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li>Show product variations as single products in shop, category, and search-result pages.</li>
<li>You can give custom product titles to variations that display as single products in product listing pages.</li>
<li>Includes an option to hide the parent product in shop, category, and search result pages.</li>
<li>You can control the option to show variations as single products and hide parent products globally or on product levels.</li>
</ul>
<hr class="wccom-product-heading__hr" />
<h2><strong>Display Variations on Single Product Pages</strong></h2>
<p>WooCommerce variations display in a drop-down menu on a single product page. The customer must go to the single product page, choose a variation and add it to their cart. For stores that sell products with more variations, showing product variations as single products reduces friction in the purchasing flow. With <strong>Variations as Single Products for WooCommerce</strong> customers can instantly add multiple variations to their carts. With this plugin, you can save your customers time and improve their browsing experience. You can also hide the parent product from product listing pages.</p>
<h2><strong>Settings</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>Go to > WooCommerce > Settings > Variations as Products</li>
<li>Enable or disable: Select this checkbox to display variations as single products on product listing pages.</li>
<li>Hide parent products: Select this checkbox to hide parent products on product-listing pages.</li>
<li>Process variations: This button is useful to sync existing variations with the plugin. You will only need to use it once after your initial installation of <strong>Variations as Single Products for WooCommerce</strong>.</li>
