MOODY BOOTY review for APO Product Options, Variants

THE CLONES!!!!!!THE CLONES!!!!!!THE CLONES!!!!!!THE CLONES!!!!!!THE CLONES!!!!!!THE CLONES!!!!!!THE CLONES!!!!!!THE CLONES!!!!!!
Hello, Thank you for your feedback. We'd highly appreciate it if you could elaborate a bit on your concern. The app generated cloned products before. But we released a new version recently that has a completely new working principle. Instead of creating a clone for every product with options that a user adds to the cart, the app now creates variants for those options right inside the base product. Clones are created only if the base product reaches Shopify’s limit of 100 variants per product. In such cases, we create a clone and proceed with adding variants to it, until that clone also reaches 100 variants. Then we repeat the process. But the trick here is that we don’t create duplicate variants. If a variant with the same options already exists, we reuse that variant, instead of creating a new one. Third-party options apps providers are limited by Shopify in many aspects. We are not allowed to change the original product price at the Checkout and are to look for workarounds. Some apps generate clones, some create draft orders. We decided to use Shopify product variants functionality. Thank you.
Overcome limits with infinite product options and swatches
