WooCommerce 3D product configurator
Turn a WooCommerce product into a valid, saved design.
Configurix connects product rules, custom measurements, real-time 3D, saved configuration identity and visual CPQ to a scoped WooCommerce cart, order or quote journey. The exact design remains connected after the customer leaves the product page.

Integration patterns
Choose the WooCommerce path that matches how the product is sold.
A product-page embed, Store API frontend, quote-first journey and hybrid flow solve different commercial problems. They can share one governed configuration record and product-rule system.
Product-page embedded configurator
The Configurix experience is placed in the WooCommerce product journey through the agreed WordPress or theme surface. The buyer completes a valid design before an eligible product or variation, quantity and configuration reference move to cart.
Useful when the configured product can continue through a recognizable WooCommerce checkout line.
Store API or custom frontend
A block-based, headless or custom frontend can call WooCommerce commerce services and a governed Configurix product core. The integration defines cart authorization, product and variation mapping, extension data, price ownership and failure behavior.
Useful when the store needs a more controlled customer experience than a conventional product template.
Configure and request a quote
The customer submits a complete configuration for review instead of being forced into immediate checkout. Dimensions, options, project image, customer context and the saved revision reach sales for pricing, survey or approval.
Useful for installed, surveyed, engineered, trade-priced or high-value configurable products.
Hybrid cart and quote journey
Standard, validated combinations can proceed to cart. Nonstandard sizes, installation services, unavailable destinations or technical-review rules move the same saved design to a consultation or quote workflow.
Useful when one catalogue contains both ecommerce-ready and project-based products.
Source of truth
Keep WordPress extensible by separating responsibilities.
WooCommerce can own the merchandise and checkout while Configurix owns governed product state and 3D. Pricing, orders and production need an explicit owner rather than several plugins silently rewriting the same answer.

Configured-line contract
The order line should recognize the product and reopen the design.
WooCommerce needs enough structured context to sell and display the line. Configurix retains the full validated state so support, sales and operations can retrieve the exact revision.

Implementation blueprint
Build the configured-product contract before adding more plugins.
Product and variation mapping, rule authority, price ownership, saved revisions and order behavior should be explicit before the UI is connected to cart.
Classify
Separate product, variation and configured data
Decide which choices belong to WooCommerce merchandise, which remain Configurix product fields and which values are derived or operational.
Model
Build the authoritative product rules
Define ranges, increments, dependencies, exclusions, defaults, required accessories, derived quantities and technical-review conditions.
Visualize
Bind valid state to browser-based 3D
Connect accepted fields to geometry, materials, visibility and camera behavior, then test minimum, maximum and representative combinations.
Price
Choose one authority for each amount
Define base product, configured additions, customer or trade pricing, quantity, tax, coupons, fees, shipping, installation, rounding and quote behavior.
Persist
Save the exact design before cart or quote
Create a stable configuration ID and revision, summary, visual reference and policy for reopening after product or price changes.
Integrate
Implement the chosen WooCommerce path
Map products, variations, Store API cart authorization or theme actions, extension data, errors, retries and order-line display.
Accept
Test commerce and project outcomes end to end
Verify validity, known prices, cart lines, duplicate configurations, coupons, taxes, quotes, saved designs, orders, mobile use and accessibility.
Operate
Monitor and version the integration
Preserve historical designs, observe failures and retest WordPress, WooCommerce, theme, plugin, catalogue, rule and pricing changes before release.
Acceptance evidence
Test products, variations, prices and saved revisions together.
A configured product is successful only when customer choices, WooCommerce cart behavior, the accepted price and the order or quote record continue to agree.
Simple product handoff
Known valid configuration mapped to a simple product
Cart and order retain the intended quantity, summary and durable configuration reference.
Variation handoff
Attributes resolve to an eligible published variation
The correct variation and attributes are accepted; missing or invalid attributes are not silently replaced.
Configured price
Known base, option, service, tax and discount example
Storefront, cart, checkout, order and saved commercial context follow the documented price owner.
Two designs, one product
Same WooCommerce product with different saved configurations
Cart lines remain distinguishable and each reopens the correct revision.
Invalid combination
A dependency, exclusion or size rule fails
The system blocks cart handoff, explains the issue and keeps the customer's recoverable draft.
Quote fallback
Survey, installation or technical review is required
Complete project data reaches the quote workflow without creating a misleading purchasable line.
Cart authorization and retry
Nonce, cart token, session or network condition fails
Failure is handled securely; retry does not duplicate the commercial action or lose the configuration.
Order and support reopen
Team opens the configured order after catalogue changes
Historical revision remains readable and any revalidation or migration is explicit.
Mobile and accessibility
Touch, keyboard, reduced motion and small viewport
Choices, validation, price and action remain operable without relying only on the 3D canvas.
Configurix + WooCommerce
Visual configuration with a durable commerce and project record.
Configurix models configurable physical products, validates rules, controls real-time 3D and preserves a structured design for prices, quotes, orders and downstream use. WooCommerce can remain the storefront and checkout where that is the appropriate route.
WordPress surfaces, products, variations, Store API behavior, sessions, price authority, cart mapping, order data and operations are confirmed against the working store and agreed scope.
