Which app were you using?
Topic summary
A merchant seeks an app to split multi-variant products (particularly color variants) into separate individual products, essentially reversing the combined listings approach. The desired functionality would create new products for each variant while copying all setup information from the original.
Solution Found:
- SEO Variants app can perform this split operation, despite being primarily designed for combined listings
- The developer recently added this reverse feature
- The app automatically transfers all relevant data and images to new products; users only need to delete unwanted images afterward
- The original poster worked directly with the developer to refine this feature
Alternative Approach:
- Variantify app offers a no-code solution for displaying variants as separate products on collection pages
- This maintains the original product structure in the backend while showing each variant as its own product card on the storefront
- Useful for merchants wanting better visual presentation without actually duplicating products in Shopify admin
Another user mentioned trying “B4B varia” for similar needs but reported it doesn’t work well.
