Slider Field

Create interactive numeric selection fields for your WooCommerce products with WPActPro’s Slider Field option. Allow customers to choose values by dragging a handle along a track for measurements, quantities, dimensions, or any numeric input within a defined range directly on your product pages.

What is the Slider Field?

The Slider Field is a premium feature that adds an interactive sliding selector to your product pages. It allows your customers to choose values by simply dragging a handle left or right, making it perfect for selecting quantities, dimensions, percentages, or any numeric value within a defined range.

Unlike standard WooCommerce product fields, Extra Product Options for WooCommerce’s Slider Field includes advanced features that give you complete control over customer selections:

  • Interactive Selection: Customers drag a handle along a track to select values visually
  • Range Control: Set minimum and maximum values to limit customer choices
  • Step Increments: Control how values change when customers move the slider
  • Dynamic Pricing: Automatically updates product pricing based on the customer’s selection
  • Visual Feedback: Customers can see where their selection falls in the available range
  • Prevents Errors: Limits customers to your predefined min/max values
  • Better User Experience: More interactive than regular number inputs

Whether you’re selling custom-length products, consultation hours, fabric by the yard, or any product that needs measurement-based or quantity-based adjustments, the Slider Field provides everything you need to collect numeric values effectively.

How To Use

  • Navigate to the Products – Extra Product Addons – Product Option – Addon Builder
  • Add Section or Element
  • Select “Slider” from the Element Popup
  • Configure your settings including min/max values, step increment, and default value in Slider Options Tab
  • Set pricing rules if the number affects the product price
  • Click On Done in the popup and click on Save

Why Use a Slider Field?

Slider fields serve multiple purposes in e-commerce, making them essential for various business models:

  • Better User Experience: Sliders are more interactive than regular number inputs – customers can visually see and adjust values
  • Visual Selection: Customers can visually see where their selection falls in the available range
  • Prevents Errors: Limits customers to your predefined min/max values, reducing input errors
  • Dynamic Pricing: Automatically updates product pricing based on the customer’s selection in real-time
  • Intuitive Interface: Drag-and-drop interaction is familiar and easy to understand
  • Mobile-Friendly: Touch-optimized interface works seamlessly on mobile devices
  • Precise Control: Step values allow for precise or rounded increments based on your needs

Common Use Cases:

Custom-Length Products: Perfect for products where customers need to specify length, width, or dimensions. For example, custom rope, fabric, cables, or any material sold by length. The slider makes it easy for customers to select their desired measurement.

Consultation Hours: Ideal for service-based businesses where customers book consultation time. Customers can slide to select the number of hours they need, with pricing that scales automatically.

Photo Prints and Custom Sizes: Enable customers to select print sizes or canvas dimensions using an intuitive slider. Pricing can scale with size, making it easy to offer various size options.

Quantity Selection: Perfect for products where customers need to select quantities within a range. The slider provides a visual way to choose quantities, especially useful for bulk orders or minimum quantity requirements.

Percentage-Based Services: Allow customers to select percentages for services like insurance coverage, warranty extensions, or premium features. The slider makes percentage selection intuitive and visual.

Measurement-Based Customization: Enable customers to specify measurements for custom products. Whether it’s dimensions, weight, volume, or any numeric measurement, sliders make selection easy and error-free.

WPActPro makes it easy to collect slider-based input that dynamically updates pricing, validation, and the final order summary. The Slider Field works seamlessly alongside other field types, enabling advanced product configurations, conditional logic flows, and measurement-driven customization options for WooCommerce.

  • When you want customers to choose a single option, use our Select Field
  • For situations where multiple selections are needed, the Multiselect Field is the best choice.
  • To offer simple yes/no or on/off choices, use our Checkbox Field
  • And when paragraph-style input is required, try our Textarea Field

When to Use the Slider Field

  • Dimension specifications (width, height, depth)
  • Weight or volume selections
  • Distance or area measurements

Quantity-Based Selection

When you want customers to select quantities within a defined range, slider fields provide an intuitive interface.

  • Bulk quantity orders

For service-based businesses where customers select time durations, slider fields make hour or minute selection easy.

  • Consultation hours
  • Service duration
  • Training session length
  • Rental periods

How to Set Up the Slider Field

Follow these comprehensive step-by-step instructions to add a Slider to your WooCommerce products. This guide covers all essential settings organized into General Settings, Label Settings, and Slider Options.

Step 1: Access the Field Builder

  • In your WordPress admin, go to WooCommerce > Products > Extra Product Addons
  • Click “Add Product Addon” or edit an existing addon
Text Example 12

Addon Configuration:

  • Status:
    • Check the Status Slider to enable the addon
    • Unchecked addons are disabled and won’t appear on product pages
    • Enable this to make your fields active
  • Name:
    • Enter a name for your addon (e.g., “Software Features”)
    • This name helps you identify the addon in the admin area
    • It’s not visible to customers on the frontend
  • Additional Rules:
    • Configure which products should display this addon
    • Product: Select the condition type (Product, Category, Tag, etc.)
    • Is Equal To: Choose the comparison operator
    • Value: Select specific products, categories, or other criteria
    • Use “Select All” or “Clear All” for bulk selection
    • Click “and” to add multiple conditions
    • Example: Apply to “Product” “Is Equal To” “Silver Ring” to show only on that product
  • Display Position:
    • Select where the addon fields appear on the product page
    • Options include:
      • Before Add to Cart (most common)
      • After Add to Cart
    • Choose the position that works best with your theme layout

Product addons help you organize your extra product options and apply them consistently across your store. Think of them as containers that hold multiple fields for specific products or product types.

Step 2: Add the Slider Field

  1. In your Addon Builder, click “Add Element/Add Section -> ( + ) Add Element” button
  2. Select Slider from Select Element Type modal popup

Step 3: Configure General Settings

The General Settings tab contains basic field configuration options that control the field’s core functionality and behavior.

The field title is crucial because it’s the first thing customers see. Make it clear and specific to avoid confusion during checkout.

    • What it does
      • Controls whether the field is enabled or disabled on the frontend.
    • How to use:
      • Enabled (ON): The field will be displayed to customers on the product page
      • Disabled (OFF): The field will be hidden from customers but remains in your configuration
    • Best practices:

      • The name will be automatically prefixed with `epofw_field_` if not already present
      • Use descriptive names that indicate the field’s purpose
    • Example:
      • Field Name: `custom_length`
      • HTML Output: `<input type=”hidden” name=”epofw_field_custom_length[value]”>`
    • Technical Details:
      • Must be unique within the addon

    • Best practices:
      • Use semantic class names that describe the field’s purpose or style
      • Follow your theme’s CSS naming conventions
      • Test classes to ensure they don’t conflict with existing styles
  • Required:
    • The Required setting determines whether customers must fill out the Slider field before they can add the product to their cart. When enabled, the field becomes mandatory and validation will prevent submission if the field is empty.
    • Field Options (Premium):
      • Text: Enter custom validation message that appears when the field is empty (e.g., “Please select a length to continue”)
      • Color For Required Text: Choose the color for the validation message (typically red or orange for errors)

      • Choose a value that makes sense for your product
    • Example:
      • Minimum Value: `0` (for quantities starting from zero)
      • Minimum Value: `1` (for minimum orders or measurements)
      • Minimum Value: `10` (for minimum length requirements)
    • Best practices:
      • Set realistic minimums based on your product constraints
      • Consider business rules (e.g., minimum order quantities)
      • Test to ensure the minimum works with your pricing model
  • Maximum Value
    • What it does:
      • Sets the highest value that customers can select using the slider. This defines the upper limit of the range.

    • How to use:
      • Enter the step increment (e.g., 1, 5, 10, 0.1, 0.5)
      • Smaller step values provide more precise control
      • Larger steps offer quicker selection
    • Example:
      • Step Value: `1` (for whole numbers only)

      • Consider how step values affect pricing calculations
  • Default Value:
    • What it does:
      • Sets the initial position of the slider when the page loads. This represents the starting point for customers.
    • How to use:
      • Enter a value within your minimum and maximum range
      • Choose a sensible starting point for customers
      • This value should represent a common or recommended selection
    • Example:
      • Default Value: `5` (for a range of 1-10, starting at middle)
      • Default Value: `25` (for a range of 0-50, starting at middle)
      • Default Value: `1` (for minimum value as default)
    • Best practices:
      • Set defaults that represent common customer choices
      • Use middle values for neutral starting points
