Add a product as a Variant

Store Design

Topic summary

A store owner has created separate products for different Red Bull flavors (Original, Strawberry, Orange) and wants to link them as variants on each product page.

Goal:

  • Display other flavors as selectable options when viewing any single flavor
  • Allow customers to see all available flavors from one product page

Constraints:

  • Wants to keep products as separate entries (not consolidate into one product)
  • Prefers a solution without paid apps if possible
  • Finds standard variant setup cumbersome, requiring recreation of prices, images, and names from scratch

Status:

  • Question remains unanswered
  • Seeking a quick method to cross-link existing products as variants without rebuilding product data

Say I sell cans of energy drinks from Red Bull, I’ve added Red Bull Original, Red Bull Strawberry, and Red Bull Orange as separate products onto the store.

I’m looking for a way that I can easily add these products as variants to each other, so if someone clicks Red Bull Original, the other flavours should pop up as options on the product page, allowing the customer to see there are other flavours available.

Adding variants the normal way seems like you have to set everything up from scratch, the price, images, names

I would like to do this without an app if possible, it’s annoying that every solution to simple problems requires apps that you have to pay extra for.

Hi,

I want them as separate products and as variants, so that’s why I’ve created them as separate products, I’m trying to look for a quick way to add them as variants to other products.
