  1. Variation Swatches for WooCommerce 2.2.9Latest

    • Feature – Radio button swatches and labels inside color swatches are now part of the free plugin.
    • Note – If you set attributes to radio buttons or turned on labels inside color swatches while you had Pro, your store may show them again after this update, even if Pro is no longer active.
    • Note – Attributes set to radio buttons now always show as radio buttons. Without Pro they used to show as a dropdown, or as labels when “Auto Convert Dropdowns To Label” was on for them; that setting no longer changes them.
    • Dev – Radio button inputs now have unique ids (tawcvs-radio-{product id}-{term id}-{number}) instead of the option’s slug, so theme CSS or JavaScript that targets the old ids needs updating.
    • Tweak – Removed the “Upgrade your Checkout for Free” notice that showed on every admin screen.
    • Tweak – The plugin no longer contacts our servers: the Addons page and the “Works well with” box, which loaded a plugin list from dw.aovup.com, are removed.
    • Tweak – The setup video on the settings page now opens on YouTube when clicked instead of loading inside the page.
    • Tweak – The “update settings” notice now shows only on the Plugins screen and on the plugin’s settings page.
    • Tweak – Removed the welcome popup shown after updates, the expired Black Friday notice and an old discount offer in the Pro popup.
    • Tweak – The description lists free and Pro features separately.
    • Fix – With Pro, an image tooltip whose image was deleted now shows the text tooltip instead of a broken image.
    • Fix – On the shop page, clicking a radio button’s label selects the option for that product, not for another product with the same option.
    • Fix – An unavailable radio option greys out its label as well as its button.
    • Tweak – Tested up to WooCommerce 11.2.

  2. Variation Swatches for WooCommerce 2.2.7

    • Fix – Variation swatches no longer appear greyed out on page load when in-stock combinations are still available.
