# ACF Addon For WooCommerce Variation

## **1. Locating the Plugin Settings**

Once the plugin is activated, it integrates directly into your WooCommerce workflow. You can find the global settings by navigating to **WooCommerce → ACF Variations** in your WordPress admin sidebar.

## **2. Global Configuration & Display**

In the settings panel, you can define how your custom metadata should appear to your customers.

**Frontend Display Layout**: Select between **Table**, **Accordion**, or **List** formats to match your site's design.

**Automatic Rendering**: Toggle this on to automatically display the metadata on the product page.

**Where to Render**: Choose the position (e.g., *After Add to Cart Button*).

## **3. Setting Up ACF Field Groups**

To show specific data for each product variation, you need to create an ACF Field Group with a specific **Location Rule**.

In the **Settings** tab under **Location Rules**, select: `Post Type is equal to Variation Product`

Navigate to **Custom Fields → Field Groups**.

Add your fields (e.g., a "Specs" Repeater field).

## **4. Managing Variation Data**

Once your fields are set up, you can enter unique data for every single variation of your product.

Go to the **Variations** tab in the Product Data section.

Edit any **Variable Product**.

Expand the variation you want to edit (e.g., "Medium Blue").

You will now see your ACF fields ready to be filled. Enter the specific details for that variation and save.

## **5. Customer Experience (Frontend)**

On the product page, the plugin works instantly. When a customer selects a variation from the dropdowns, the metadata is swapped in real-time to show the relevant specifications for that specific selection.
