Question Variable products for digital types?

[Nulumia]

From what I read it seems there can only be variations for physical products, wondering what the best solution would be for my shop?

Some themes I sell have one product page, but allows during Add to Cart to select which color to purchase, using variations. That way, I won't have separate and redundant product item/pages for "Theme Name - Red", "Theme Name - Blue" etc.

Is there any way to bring variations to digital products, or in the meantime do you have advice for this setup?

The reason I do this is some themes require substantial enough work on their variants, that a bundle of all variations would technically warrant a much higher price with no choice for the user.

Thanks for any insight,

If they are substantially different enough that you would want to charge for each individual version, then separate products would be the way to go.

There's pretty much no way to create product variations for digital products, as there would be way too much complexity as each variation would need their own license tier option.

Thanks Fillip for your reply,
I'm a bit sad that's not technically doable, though it makes sense as physical products don't bring in the whole licensing factor. There are other shops that do this, but they are/were fundamentally written from the ground up with this to be included and would require massive recoding for your plugin.

Granted in no way am I moving off DBTech Ecommerce so I will adjust my products accordingly .
