How To Use Swatches Customizer Styling

The Swatches Customizer Styling module is available to you as of v 1.1.0 of Ocean eComm Treasure Box addon for custom WooCommerce websites.

If you have variable products in your online store, but not making use of custom templates either in full or just partially (for example, you are using a custom template for the single product but default OceanWP WooCommerce pages for Shop and Product Archives), you can still style the product swatches as you please.

Before applying custom styles, learn how to use Product Swatches module and create different product swatches types.

Enable the Swatches Customizer Styling Feature

To style product swatches on pages that are utilizing default WooCommerce pages with OceanWP (aka not utilizing custom templates for Shop, single product, etc) you need to enable the Swatches Customizer Styling feature.
