WooCommerce: Switch Image Background On Color Variation Selection

by Tutor Aspire

You could upload 10 images, one for each color of your variable product… or you could be slightly smarter and simply upload 1 “blank” image, and then when the user selects a color trigger a background color change!

Easier to code than to explain, so let’s take a look at the screenshot below (image must be a PNG with transparent background) and the PHP snippet. This could be a time-saver, enjoy!

The final output: background-color switches to “Red” once the “Red” variation is selected.
