Product Variants or Groups - Make all variants product feed compatible if price differs
At the moment product variations with different prices to the default, don't output on the feed.
This is limiting the marketing of those variations and displaying them on separate pages would harm usability and upselling opportunities.
Even with unique URLs per variant, the page loads the default parent product and price first then js triggers the updated image/price/variant which is bad practice and causes price matching errors.
Many platforms handle these as product groups - with a dropdown the same as variants that is actually a URL jump to the applicable product. This would also allow for different descriptions should they be needed.
If EKM could please find a solution for this, so I can maximise our marketing potential and spend more on PPC should I wish to.

Shane MergedCurrently variants only display on the feed if the prices are the same as the default however it would be nice if it could do this even if they are different.

Sean MergedThis functionality is a must for us. Only master product variants are submitted to the feed, unless all variants are the same price. We have several variants that differ in price, and it is having a detrimental effect on our Google Shopping campaigns.

Sophie OMahony MergedI have to say I find it quite ridiculous that a shopping platform doesn't offer this functionality as standard. All our products are available in a choice of four or five finishes and most in multiple lengths. It would be completely nonsensical for me to have these displayed each as individual products for customers to trawl through. Why, EKM doesn't have the structure in place to do something as basic as this is beyond me. I'm becoming increasingly frustrated by the limitations of this platform

Afshin MergedHi EKM team
Is there any chance for the platform to have conditional drop-down menus?
I am talking about the variants on the product being conditional on the previous variant that was selected.
For example when a customer chose option A from a drop-down menu then some variants get activated but if they chose option B those boxes are not activated or even another set of options get activated.
For example, a drop-down menu shows 2 options: Standard Size and Made to Measure Size
Now customers are able to place their own measurements in separate boxes if they chose Made to Measure option but if they chose the Standard Size option then they don't see any boxes for placing measurements -
