I'm working my way through this module trying to figure out all the touch points in deploying it as I feel the challenge with variation types.

I have products like Barnyard Chicks with variation like 1 chick and 10 chicks.

I built the site using Kickstart 5 as a starting point which uses views for the cart displays, and order summary. The module is enabled, but the displays using views aren't changing


What is changing is the widget with the dropdown, order confirmation emails, and the administrative side tables like on /product/[product_id]/variations. All of this is great. The order confirmation emails were a big headache...

For the Views, I don't see a field formatter (as I'm rendering entities in these views) for the title field on the variation since this was my work around to get the product image, title, and the product variation title on each of those screens.


Maybe somehow alter some templates? Hook? feature request for when we display the title of a product variation?

What are your thoughts

I'm not super sure if this would be the direction yall would want to go, but what helped me was building a field formatter for the product variation title field. I didn't make a MR because of that, but if there is some interest I can open an MR with a feature request.

In theory, we would probably want to add a views field handler that allows us to display this data via a view as well...
