By default, WooCommerce displays variations as dropdown options on the product pages.
However, you can convert the variation options from the dropdown to button swatches in just a few clicks, using Variation Swatches for WooCommerce.
Once you have the plugin installed and activated, follow the steps below to do it easily.
1. Set Default Style For Swatches #
First, go to Dashboard > Swatches and look at the Generals tab.

Here, you will find the options to set the default shape, color, and border of swatches when:
- Normally displayed
- Hovered, or
- Selected.
Plus you will also be able to set the font size for Label or text swatches.
Configure these settings as you like.
2. Go To Controls Tab #
Klicken Sie auf der linken Seite auf die Registerkarte Steuerelemente.

The Controls tab will have these options.

3. Enable Dropdown To Button Swatches #
Aktivieren Sie hier die Option Dropdown zu Schaltflächenfeldern.

Then save settings. Now you will see that the variations on product pages will be displayed in the form of button swatches.
