Composite Products
| Developed by SomewhereWarmThe definitive WooCommerce product builder
Looking for a way to offer customizable product kits, such as custom computers, skateboards, gift-boxes, or made-to-order jewelry? Look no further!
Give customers the power to build their own products with Composite Products: The most flexible, robust product builder for WooCommerce. Engineered specifically for kit-building applications with advanced inventory management requirements, Composite Products lets you utilize existing products to create the most engaging product kits and configurable products. The extension works great in a broad range of use cases, thanks to its:
- advanced product grouping capabilities,
- flexible pricing and shipping features,
- customizable flows and layouts, and
- support for conditional logic.
Unclutter your workflow
Want to offer a custom skateboard? Start by creating its building blocks: A deck, trucks, wheels, bearings and hardware for assembly. Then, populate each with options by choosing products — or categories — from your catalog. Finally, choose a flow and layout that will keep customers engaged — and start selling!
Composite Products supports simple & variable products, product bundles and even downloadable/virtual flavors of these product types, giving you an advanced set of tools to make almost anything possible.
A streamlined, personalized purchasing experience
Love the simplicity of variable products, but need a way to manage the inventory of each option? How about using a multi-page, multi-step layout?
With multiple layouts and option styles to choose from, every Composite product can be quickly adapted to offer a streamlined, personalized purchasing experience.
Features that scale
Got thousands of decks, trucks and wheels in your skateshop catalog? Sure enough, you’ll want to offer them all in the custom skateboard configurator you just built!
No problem — choose a paginated, responsive options view to make browsing more fun, and help customers find exactly what they are looking for by enabling product sorting/filtering controls.
Conditional flows and dependent options
Composite Products brings advanced conditional logic at your fingertips: Use scenarios to control the visibility of entire configuration steps or individual options.
Too many rules to input manually? More variables to account for? Need to trigger custom conditional actions? Its extendable architecture and developer-friendly documentation have established Composite Products as a great starting point for any demanding kit-building project.
An extendable, adaptable architecture
Almost there, but not quite? Check out our growing collection of snippets and mini-extensions for some of the most commonly-requested customizations!
Out of luck? Not yet! Composite Products includes an impressive arsenal of action and filter hooks for customizing every detail of its behavior.
Looking for REST API support? We got your back there, as well!
Is Composite Products right for you?
Composite Products is suitable for creating advanced product kits that consist of multiple components with several product options. If you want to create simple product packages with static content, Product Bundles might be a better option. Note that Product Bundles can be nested in components to build even more complex configurators.

What is great about this product?
Really powerful and configurable. We use it for complex products with many tens of parts each, all of which have right and wrong options and compatibility constraints. The Composite Products plugin handles it all very well. Customer service has been really helpful too when I've needed to make a couple of code modifications.
How could it be improved?
A dynamic main image which changes as the composite options are changed would be a really nice addition.

What do you think about this product?
It took some doing, but this plugin let me add all sorts of levels of product options. Over two dozen different combos are tucked neatly into one product. Support was TERRIFIC!
How could it be improved?
Initial documentation is incredibly dense and confusing. In particular, having to use other products as options -as opposed to the standard attributes – can be really tricky to understand. However, the support staff answered all of my questions, sent me screen shots, function code and we got it all to work in the end. So if they create some more sample set-ups in their documentation, and maybe some videos, I think users will be far less frustrated getting started.

What is great about this product?
It is an incredible product. Very complex and powerful functionality that was implemented in a way that makes things comparatively easy for admin users. Lots of options that will let you create different kind of configurators and meet your specific needs. We got superb support from Manos and his team, that has answered to each and every question we've sent them, and they even have given us suggestions and examples about how to customize their plugin further, which would normally be out of the support agreement!
How could it be improved?
I’d like to see more options in the dashboard pages to customize layouts within the summary widget, or the components options, like disabling pagination for options, hiding the selected component option title, price and thumbnail, changing the location of the add to cart button, etc. without having to do it through priority changes for the actions, or css customizations.

It helps let customers build their own packages from components that you set. Rather than making every package yourself, you give your customers the opportunity to build the packages according to their needs.
How could it be improved?
Should have the option to add design costs if adding certain components increases the labour for us. Sometimes you have to pay different amounts based on what components you ask the workers to assemble. Currently, you can only build this funcitonality into your components plugin via scenarios which takes a long time and strenuous effort if you have lots of products/components.

What is great about this product?
I love the configurability of this plugin as it's allowed me to create a fairly complex (for me at least!) package of parts that customers can configure and buy on our website. I had one issue getting this to work exactly how I wanted with the Product Bundles plugin from the same publisher - I contacted the publisher and they were very responsive and they were able to help me resolve my issue. So I am very satisfied with this plugin overall, thank you!
How could it be improved?
I think this is great for 99% of the cases, but in my case I needed to add a bit of custom code, so getting rid of the custom code by adding more options in the plugin would be nice.

kwwerbeboten rated ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ –
What is great about this product?
It just does what it's supposed to do. This might be a bit overwhelming at first (since there's no "best way to do it", just a bunch of powerful options you have to play around with a bit), but once you figure out how the whole shebang works, it's a breeze. The support was stellar, too. Helped me out with customization and it seemed that they really wanted to help and not just to get rid of me ;) Also: Awesome developer documentation/options (makes use of hooks/filters a lot and uses the WooCommerce template system, which allows you to override the default files with custom ones inside your theme folder).
How could it be improved?
Adding a lot of products just for one final composite product can be a bit impractical and might clutter you product list after a while. So it would be great to maybe add a custom post type for that.
Maybe add a couple of templates/styling options for the different composite layouts for less experienced webmasters (if you’re familiar with CSS styling shouldn’t be a problem).

Great product to easily extend products in your woocommerce store so much further. Amazing support from the development team who are always quick to answer and eager to help wherever possible. We've been provided with numerous snippets of code to customize our use of this product further which has been truely amazing.
How could it be improved?
Enable easier integration & compatibility with other (third party) products such as wishlists, quotations, etc to further extend woocommerce when using Composite Product types. There still seems to be a real lack of compatible products around.

It would be great to add info icons all over the place (it’s already in some areas), including a link to the area in the documentation that elaborates on that specific part.

This plugin isn't for the faint hearted, but don't let that put you off because the support is superb. If you have a complex custom configuration product, then this is powerful enough to do you want if you're prepared to get your head around the logic. Once the penny drops, you'll get it!
How could it be improved?
I’d say more comprehensive documentation would help, but I’m not sure it would be possible to realistically expand this as there are so many possibilities which could not be covered. This is where the great support comes in because every solution will likely be bespoke to the individual’s requirement.

This extension has been a life saver for my WooCommerce site. Some of my products can have as many as 13 configurable options, and just using dropdown menus wasn’t going to cut it.
Additionally when I reached out to the developer with some problems I had while customizing the plugin for my theme, they were extremely helpful. Great customer service.

Verdi rated ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ –
What do you think about this product?
We've been using it for over two year on two sites. For our use case (bundles of multiple variable and single products, some optional) it has cost us too much time to enter and maintain the shop. In the end we decided to simply stop offering bundles of variable products and are now using Elementor + ACF Pro to handle things. The low score is party for the user interface, mostly because of a bug where both Woo and this plugin could not find a solution for. On the bright side, their support is very responsive and attentive! For that the get an extra star. I do really wish they would start over, especially with the UI. See comment below.
How could it be improved?
Start from scratch, look at real-world use cases and the people who use them. Re-think the UX/UI. Lower the price. We found a better alternative at a lower price.

This product is extremely flexible. Warning - you need to use your imagination - and that can make it a lot of fun to set up complex shops to do exactly what you want to do. And that's nice. The support and documentation is great too.
How could it be improved?
Increase the examples of how to use the plugin – perhaps asking your users to share their shop setups.
Allow duplicating/cloning of components – in the two shops I’ve setup with Composite products, I’ve needed to create lots of components that were very similar except for one or two variations and it would have been good to just clone a bunch of components and then just change the small thing that needed to be updated.

Maybe a bit of UI simplification for the less technically inclined, and a bit more easily done customization options. The ability to (so called) skin the interface to match branded content would be great. As always, if you have good knowledge of CSS and PHP you can customize anything, but making this more user friendly would be awesome!

What didn't you like about this product?
Bascially the plugin did not do what I wanted to do. I wanted a minimalistic look where 2 products could be selected in one go from the size and the stock levels were adjusted accordingly behind the scenes. Apparently this requires coding. Having separate product selctions felt quite bulky on the product page and then having to have several dropdown that effective only want the same result i.e. size doesn't give the customer a smooth experience when you have multiple items and I only had 2. Also had an annoying box telling you to select certain items which does not need to be there. Support was good which is why it didn't get 1 star.
How could it be improved?
When I bought this I was told it would do what I wanted. Unfortunately that was sometime ago and I didn’t really implement the plugin properly until recently when I found out it ssisn’t do the job. I think the main improvement would be how the composites look on the product page, I think this could be impproved massively and being able to change the thumbnail sizes or make them smaller.

Add the ability for selecting number of columns in narrow or wide layouts. However, they’ve detailed in tips, tricks, etc. a way to handle this that works just fine.
