Product variants

If you use product variants in your shop, you can optionally decide to display the variants in 3 different ways. Please note that these optinal variant options will only be displayed if a product has a single variant type (ex: color). If your product has more than 1 (ex: Size + Color), the default variant dropdown will be displayed.
