BundleBoss - Product Bundles, Composite Products & Kit Builder for WooCommerce

BundleBoss is one plugin instead of three: deal packs, configurable kits and build-your-own boxes all live here, so you are not stitching separate bundle, mix-and-match and composite plugins together. And it starts simple: a first bundle takes about two minutes, timed from a fresh install to published on a stock store. Here is what sets it apart: most bundle plugins lock every slot. BundleBoss is built around customer choice from the first click. The free plugin groups products into a "buy these together and save" pack and lets customers pick the size and colour of every unit, buying the lot as one cart line. If you can describe the bundle, you can probably build it here. That is why shops run it for deal packs, configurable products, build-your-own kits, gift sets, and team kit and workwear. See BundleBoss build a bundle in two minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuWtQvS689A Try it live: demo.getbundleboss.com is a full demo store running Pro, with build-a-box discounts, a PC configurator and more. Click around and build things, nothing breaks, it resets nightly. Prefer reading? The step-by-step guides are at getbundleboss.com/docs. What is free and what is Pro The free plugin is the complete fixed-bundle product, not a demo and not a trial. You choose what goes in the bundle; your customer configures every unit of it and buys the lot as one cart line. Free includes:

• Per-unit configuration: the customer sets the size, colour and options of every unit, restricted to the variations you allow
• Three pricing modes (percentage off, set amount off, fixed price), plus quantity tier discounts
• Bundle rules: quantity ranges per item, optional items customers can skip
• A guided creation wizard: pick what you are making, add products, preview, and create, no manual field wrangling
• A guided product page: per-item cards, colour swatches, the "All the same" shortcut, three unit layouts
• Promotions: sale countdown timer, related-bundles carousel, the progress-to-discount cart nudge
• Oversell-proof stock and fulfilment-ready orders with a component pick list
• Store plumbing: shipping weight modes, Cart and Checkout blocks, WPML and Polylang, JSON export and import
• Item links, if you want them: an optional small arrow beside each item name opens the product's own page in a new tab, so customers can check details without losing their bundle

Pro adds the Builder and the selling tools:

• Choice slots: customers pick each component from pools you define, with compatibility and quantity rules and conditional items, all enforced on the server
• Two more layouts: the full-page Configurator and a step-by-step walkthrough
• Build-a-box (mix and match): fill a box from a pool, with a target size and per-product limits
• Self-updating category pools: point a choice slot or box at a product category instead of a fixed list, and it stays current, a product added to that category later shows up in the slot automatically
• Size-run quantity grid: a colours-by-sizes matrix for bulk orders
• Per-item personalisation with fees, plus logo and file upload with GDPR export and erase
• Order growers: frequently bought together (on the page and in the cart), buy X get Y, gift mode
• Shareable build links (any shop can open one; creating them is Pro), hero slots, deal badges, and the Composite Products importer

Ready to grow every order? BundleBoss Pro has a 14-day trial, no card needed. Upgrading keeps every bundle you built in the free plugin.

When you find something BundleBoss does not do yet, tell us. We are small, we ship often, and we build what shop owners actually ask for (see "Tell us what you need" below). The free plugin, in detail

• Per-unit configuration: every unit of a bundle item can be configured independently
• Guided configurator: collapsible cards with sticky headers, one-line summaries and full keyboard support
• "All the same" toggle: configure once and every unit follows; switch it off afterwards and the picks stay, ready for individual tweaks
• Three unit layouts: arrange a multi-quantity item's units as stacked cards, compact cards, or a comparison table, chosen per bundle
• Progress-to-discount nudge: the cart shows "Add 1 more to unlock 15% off" with a progress bar and a one-click button to add another identical bundle
• Colour swatches: give attribute terms a colour and chips become swatch circles
• Three pricing modes: a percentage discount, a set amount off, or one fixed bundle price
• Quantity tier discounts: "buy 3+, save 20%"
• Sale countdown timer: live countdown bar with start/end scheduling
• Related bundles carousel: cross-sell between bundle pages
• Oversell-proof stock: component stock validated while configuring, at add-to-cart and at checkout, reduced on sale and restored on refund
• Fulfilment-ready orders: pick list with component SKUs and quantities on every order
• Shipping weight modes: automatic (sum of chosen components) or manual
• Export / import: move every bundle between sites as one JSON file
• Multilingual: WPML and Polylang supported out of the box

BundleBoss Pro, in detail BundleBoss Pro adds the full Builder, advanced layouts, and the selling tools to grow every order:

• Choice slots: customers pick each component from pools you define (PC-builder style), with live pricing on every option
• Compatibility and quantity rules: stop impossible combinations, enforced on the server, not just in the browser
• Per-item personalisation: optional add-on fields (names, options, notes), each able to carry a fee, captured per unit and shown on the order and the warehouse pick list. Built for team kit, workwear and promo
• Logo and file upload: customers attach a logo or artwork to an item; secure upload, a download link on the order, GDPR export and erase included
• Hero slots: the customer's chosen product takes over the page's main product image
• Deal badges: products on sale and featured products surface in the chooser
• Step-by-step layout: walk customers through one item at a time, with progress and free navigation
• Shareable build links: customers copy a finished build to a link anyone can open and buy (free shops can open a shared link; creating one is Pro)
• Migrate from Composite Products: one click converts existing composites to draft bundles
• Configurator layout: a full-page, two-pane builder with a docked "Your build" summary and a price on every option, for big or many-part products like a gaming PC
• Build-a-box (mix and match): customers fill a box by choosing any number from a pool, with a target size, per-product limits, and a live count and total (any 6 chocolates, any 4 candles)
• Self-updating category pools: build a choice slot or box pool from a product category, by hand, or both. A category pool maintains itself, add a product to the category and it appears in the slot with no edit to the bundle, ideal for a rotating range or a large catalogue
• Gift mode: a recipient, a gift message, optional gift wrap with a fee, and a no-prices gift receipt, all carried through to the order
• Frequently bought together: surface companion products with a combined price and a set discount, the add-the-whole-set upsell
• Buy X get Y: buy-two-get-one-free style offers scoped to the bundle's own items (the cheapest goes free), shown clearly as was, pay, and you save
• Conditional items: show or hide a bundle item based on what the customer has already chosen, enforced on the server (pick the tagged top and the matching-joggers slot appears)

The free plugin is complete on its own; Pro adds everything described here. Everything under "The free plugin, in detail" stays free. Tell us what you need BundleBoss is built and updated by the people who answer its support, and the roadmap is written by real shop owners. If you need a bundle it does not handle yet, or an option you wish existed, ask for it on the support forum. Every request gets read and answered, and "can it do X?" is exactly how new features get chosen. You name it, and there is a real chance we build it. Requirements

• WordPress 6.4+
• WooCommerce 8.0+
• PHP 8.0+

1. In your WordPress admin go to Plugins > Add New, search for BundleBoss, then install and activate it. WooCommerce needs to be installed and active.
2. Go to Products > Create a bundle. The guided wizard takes you from picking products to a finished bundle page in a few minutes, with a live preview of what your customers will see.
3. Prefer the full editor? Create a product and choose the Bundle product type: the products go on the Bundle Items tab, the deal (a percentage off, an amount off, or one fixed price) on Bundle Pricing, and extras like gift options or Buy X Get Y on Bundle Promotions.
4. Publish and open the product page. The bundle is ready to sell, with live totals, per item options and stock checks built in.

4.13.0 - 2026-07-14

• New (Pro): whole-order personalisation. Add one block for the entire order (a logo to upload, a message, an optional paid rush), shown once with the order summary instead of repeated under a single item. Give the block your own heading, for example "Add your logo" or "Personalise your order". It is charged once and carries through to the cart, the order and the warehouse pick list.
• Improved (Pro): the "This is a gift" note now sits with the order summary, just above the Add to Cart button, instead of below it where it was easy to miss.
• Improved (Pro): choice slots in the editor collapse to a tidy summary line, so a bundle with several slots (a PC configurator, a gift hamper) opens as a scannable list. Click a slot to expand it, or use Collapse all; a slot you have just added opens ready to fill in.
• Improved: colour swatches recognise more named colours (bottle green, oxford blue, heather grey and others), and size options list in natural order (S, M, L, XL) instead of alphabetically. Both are display only and never change your product data.
• Improved: steadier fallbacks. A product with no photo shows a quiet placeholder instead of a broken image frame, an empty box row no longer leaves a grey gap, and a long slot title wraps evenly instead of dropping a single word onto its own line.
• Fixed (Pro): marking a bundle as a gift is remembered when you edit it from the cart. The recipient, message, wrap and gift receipt used to come back blank on the edit page and could be lost on save.
• Fixed: theme compatibility on Divi. The Add to Cart button no longer sits pushed to one side and off the panel edge, and the Change control on a chosen slot keeps its own look instead of taking on the theme's button styling.

4.12.1 - 2026-07-14

• Fixed (Pro): with "All the same" turned on, a per-unit personalisation fee (such as a name or number priced per item) was charged for the first unit only, so the basket came up short of the price shown on the page. Every unit is now charged, and what the basket charges always matches what the page shows. Applies to the stacked, cards and table item layouts.
• Improved: bundles now show a proper button on shop and category listings that opens the bundle to be put together, instead of the plain "Read more" link some themes rendered. The label fits the bundle automatically ("Build your box", "Build your bundle" or "Choose options"), and a new "Shop button" field lets you set your own wording.

4.12.0 - 2026-07-14

• New (Pro): a sale price for the countdown. Set it on the Promotions tab; it is charged while the timer runs, shown struck through against the regular price on the page and in the shop, and the basket says what the promotion saves.
• New (Pro): option restrictions on pick-one slots. Limit which options a customer can pick for whichever product they choose, for example lock a weight option to 1kg so a fixed bundle price cannot buy the small bag.
• New (Pro): a Show or Hide switch for a box's category filter chips, for shops whose categories overlap so much the chips stop helping.
• New: hide any item's price from the item row's More options. Hidden prices stay hidden in the cart and at checkout, and the bundle total still shows.
• New: hide the Sale badge per bundle while a promotion runs; the countdown and the struck-through price stay.
• Improved: picking a product in a chooser is now instant on typical pools, and if the options ever fail to load the chooser shows a working retry instead of spinning forever.
• Improved: bundle prices stay in sync with the shop catalog, sorting and the store API, and a quick edit on a fixed-price bundle now honestly updates the bundle price.
• Improved: the In your box summary shows photos of the products picked in a box.
• Improved: bundle controls keep their shape on themes with heavy global form styling.
• Fixed: changing a chosen product restores the slot exactly, so the option grid no longer rewraps narrower after Change.
• Fixed: prices on chooser cards and the chosen bar no longer include options a slot rules out, and fixed-price bundles no longer show a per-item price on the chosen bar.
• Fixed: saving a fixed-price box that can be checked out under-filled, or a fixed-price bundle offering options with very different prices, now shows a clear admin warning naming the fix.

4.11.0 - 2026-07-13

• New (Pro): box size rules become one rule per option type. A pool whose products carry several option types (say a weight and a flavour) takes one pin per type, with per-product overrides; single rules from 4.10.0 keep working unchanged.
• New: the admin product picker finds products by ID or SKU as well as name, matching the IDs its labels already show.
• New: bundle exports carry everything. Export format v2 travels the whole bundle (box setup, sizes and rules, promotions, gift mode, personalisation kits, tile styles) with portable product references, and re-links main, gallery and slot images when the destination media library has the files. Old export files still import.
• Improved: the bundle wizard explains a blocked Continue instead of sitting silent.
• Improved: rows of colour and size options spread evenly when they wrap. Five colours read as 3 and 2, never 4 with an orphan, computed from live widths on every screen size.
• Improved: the block cart shows an Edit link beside a configurable bundle's name (the classic cart's Edit suffix never survived the block re-render), and bundle lines no longer repeat the product description under the components.
• Improved: components drained by bundle sales now send the same low-stock and out-of-stock notifications a direct sale would, and every order notes the component stock movement.
• Fixed: BOGO and box quantity-break bundles show their struck-through was price and "You save" line again. The buy-more pass introduced in 4.9.0 recomputed the saving as zero and hid the lines the first pass had just revealed.
• Fixed: the cart saving line for a size-priced box read as the whole component sum instead of the actual saving (a £45 pack of five £9.90 boards said "You save £49.50" instead of £4.50).
• Fixed: a cart line whose product stopped being a bundle no longer breaks cart and checkout; the line falls back to its stored discount.

4.10.0 - 2026-07-13

• New (Pro): build-a-box slots with variable products gain a Default size rule. Offer every product at one specific size ("only the 100g bags"), or the smallest or largest of each, or leave the choice to the customer as before. A product that does not come in the set size uses its own smallest, so nothing drops out of the pool.
• New (Pro): per-product size overrides. The pool follows the default size while a product you name uses its own, for example everything at 100g and one sweet at 125g. The picker offers exactly the pool's products, including products pulled in by category.
• New (Pro): an Item prices switch on each box slot hides the small price under every product AND keeps per-line prices out of the order panel's "What's inside" readback, for a cleaner "just pick what you like" box. The box total and From price still show.
• New (Pro): when the size rule leaves exactly one option, the card drops its dropdown and adds with one tap. The wizard's box step carries the same controls, sized to fit it.
• Improved (Pro): a set size that is sold out shows its product as sold out instead of quietly offering a different size, and products with several option types keep their full chooser until per-type rules arrive.
• Fixed: publishing a bundle with no name could silently discard everything configured in its panels; WordPress refuses to save an entirely empty product and the editor gave no warning. The editor now asks for a name up front, and a bundle that has items saves safely regardless.

4.9.2 - 2026-07-12

• New (Pro): the size-run grid gains a Photos tile style. Single-choice grids become picture cards showing each option's photo and price. Each card opens on a single Add button; once something is in, it becomes a compact stepper. Tapping anywhere on the card adds one, a fill bar tracks the box as it fills, and chosen cards get an accent ring.
• New: each bundle in the order panel now carries a one-line detail of its options and personalisation (for example "250g · STEFANOS"), so two builds of the same bundle are tellable apart at a glance.
• Improved: item counts mean pieces everywhere. A box holding twelve sweets reads "12 items" in the order panel and the pinned bar, not the number of lines.
• Improved: before anything is picked, a configurable bundle shows its real "From" price instead of £0.00, and the add button follows your bundle word ("Add box to Cart").
• Improved: quantity-tier ladders no longer advertise a "0% off" first rung, and fixed-price pools no longer print per-item prices that are not charged.
• Improved: a bundle without a product image now uses the full page width instead of leaving an empty image column.
• Improved (Pro): the gift option row explains itself: add the recipient's name and a message, and they are included with the order.

4.9.1 - 2026-07-11

• Fixed: on themes or sites with custom CSS that forces button styling, the order panel could show two action buttons at once (Add to cart alongside Build a new one). Hidden panel controls can no longer be repainted by site styles, whatever the theme does.

4.9.0 - 2026-07-11

• New: the order panel. After adding, the bundle page shows the bundles in your basket as a running order: edit, change quantity or remove each one right there, with live quantity-tier progress and the saving restated. Editing from the cart uses the same panel, with the bundle being edited clearly badged.
• New: fixed bundles (no options) merge repeat purchases into one tidy line with a quantity, instead of stacking duplicate lines; carts from older versions tidy themselves on their next load.
• New: a slim bar keeps the running total and next action pinned to the bottom of the screen while the panel is out of view, on phones and desktop alike.
• New: pick the word your shop uses, "box", "kit", "hamper", under WooCommerce, BundleBoss, Appearance, and the storefront wording follows it everywhere.
• Fixed (Pro): personalisation on a single-unit item with sizes could be lost between the product page and the cart; typed values now always reach the cart, the order and the pick list.
• Fixed: raising a quantity from the order panel now respects component stock instead of overselling until checkout.
• Fixed: the grid layout no longer leaves a collapsed tile full-height, and fixed-price bundles no longer print £0.00 component prices.

4.8.1 - 2026-07-10

• Improved (Pro): build-a-box quantity discounts now show as a progress bar with a clear "you unlocked X% off, add N more for Y%" nudge, so shoppers can see how close the next saving is.
• Improved (Pro): in the cart, a configured item's options and personalisation now sit grouped under the item they belong to, instead of reading as separate lines.
• Improved (Pro): on the product page the personalisation panel is indented under its item, so it clearly belongs to it.
• New (Pro): click the chosen design image in a choice bundle to view it larger.
• Improved (Pro): on phones the configurator's running-total bar is now compact, so it no longer covers the options while you choose.
• Fixed (Pro): a build-a-box quantity can no longer be typed above the box's limit; it now caps at the space left, matching the plus and minus buttons.
• Fixed (Pro): conditional items no longer leave a gap in the numbered steps, and choice options no longer briefly show "Loading" when they open.

4.8.0 - 2026-07-09

• New: edit a bundle in the wizard, not only create one. Open a bundle in the guided wizard, change its products, layout, pricing, name and description, then save. Anything the wizard does not show is kept exactly as it was.
• New: the wizard now handles the everyday essentials without opening the full editor, including a full description, product categories, per-item quantity, and quantity breaks (bigger order, bigger saving).
• New (Pro): a customer choice can let shoppers pick several, not only one, for example "pick any 3 of these". The plain pick-one choice still works as before.
• New (Pro): Gift options and Buy X, get Y are set up right in the wizard, with a live preview as you change them.
• Improved: when you edit a bundle, the preview shows the whole product page with your unsaved changes, so you see exactly what the customer gets.
• Improved: clearer, plainer wording on the Products step, and the wizard now shows what you are building as you move through it.

4.7.0 - 2026-07-07

• New (Pro): size options for build-a-box. Offer set sizes or packs, each one flat price for an exact number of items, for example a 1.7kg bucket that holds 10, a 3kg bucket that holds 20, a 4kg bucket that holds 30. The customer picks a size, then fills it. Made for pick and mix buckets, hampers, coffee bags and chocolate boxes.
• New (Pro): the Build-your-own box wizard can set those sizes for you. Choose One size or Different sizes and add each pack right in the guided setup, without opening the full editor.
• Improved (Pro): a choice slot can pull its candidate products from several categories at once, not just one.
• Improved (Pro): the choice-slot settings are tidier, with the rarely-used options tucked into an Advanced section so the everyday controls stand out.

4.6.0 - 2026-07-06

• New: Create a bundle with a guided wizard. Pick what you are making (a discounted set or a fixed-price kit), add your products, and see a live preview before you create it, with a name suggested for you and optional short description and images. Find it under Products, or when you choose the Bundle product type.
• New: the wizard offers Save as draft or Publish, and a Finish in the editor link to switch to the full editor at any point, keeping what you have built.
• Improved: bundle images are constrained in previews, so an oversized item photo no longer stretches its card.
• Fix: a gallery of images set while creating a product is no longer cleared on the first save.

4.5.7 - 2026-07-03

• New: optional "Link items to their product pages" per bundle. A small arrow beside each item name opens the product's own page in a new tab, so customers can check details without losing their bundle.
• New: build-a-box quantity breaks now sell themselves. The full tier ladder shows above the box and the "add 3 more for 10% off" nudge appears from the very first pick, then tracks the next tier as the box fills.
• Improved: option cards, box cards and grid cards line up. Long product names clamp neatly to two lines, photos share one panel size, prices sit on one baseline, and grid rows stretch to equal height.
• Improved: a product without a photo now shows a clean initial tile instead of a broken placeholder frame, everywhere an item can appear.
• Improved: the Configurator's "items in your build" counter counts what the customer has actually chosen.
• Improved: table layout shows a quiet pending mark in price cells that are waiting on a choice, gift options render as a proper section, and "Apply to the rest" looks like the button it is.
• Hardened: very large bundles now save safely at PHP input limits, with a clear admin notice if a request was truncated; the builder guards against double initialisation; upload folders are locked down further.
• Pro groundwork: bundles quietly record anonymous sales rows (which bundle, what was picked, totals; never any personal or personalisation data) so the upcoming analytics screen has history from day one.

4.5.6 - 2026-06-30 Smoother upgrade from free to Pro:

• Upgrading to Pro now replaces the free version in place. Activating BundleBoss Pro automatically switches the free version off, so there is no longer a "two copies active" step to do by hand.

4.5.5 - 2026-06-27 Match the builder to your brand, plus editor and display polish:

• New: a Brand colour setting under Appearance on the BundleBoss tools page. Pick one colour and the builder's buttons, highlights and links match your shop, on the product page and in the cart. Leave it empty for the default theme-friendly look.
• Improved (Pro): the quantity grid's size cells now have clickable plus and minus steppers, so a customer can adjust a size run by tapping, not only by typing.
• Fix: bundle items now expand and collapse independently. Opening one no longer closes the others.
• Fix: the "Multiple items" and "Colour tiles" display settings now stay hidden on simple bundles (where they do nothing) and appear only when a bundle has a variable product.

4.5.4 - 2026-06-24 A new way to lift order value, right at the cart:

• New (Pro): Frequently Bought Together offers now also appear in the cart, not just on the product page. A "Complete your order" strip shows the companion products with one-click add and the same discount, on both the classic cart and the WooCommerce Cart block.

4.5.3 - 2026-06-24 Display fixes for themes that show products in a narrow column, including block themes:

• The Configurator layout now collapses cleanly to a single column when the product area is narrow (such as block themes like Twenty Twenty-Four), instead of crowding the option tiles and pushing the "Your build" summary out of place.
• The per-item options table now stacks into tidy labelled cards in a narrow column instead of running off the edge.

4.5.2 - 2026-06-24 Clearer savings everywhere, plus more build-a-box control and a few fixes:

• New: a third way to price a bundle, take a set amount off the items (for example 5 off), alongside percentage off and a fixed price.
• The money a customer saves now shows the same way on the product page and in the cart, a "You save" line on every kind of discount, so the figures always add up.
• Identical items in the cart now combine into one line with a count (for example "x 5") instead of repeating.
• Fix: an out-of-stock optional item now drops out of the bundle on its own so the rest still sells, instead of blocking the whole bundle.
• New (Pro): build-a-box quantity breaks, the more a customer adds to the box, the bigger the discount, with a live "add 1 more for 10% off" nudge.
• New (Pro): a "max different products" limit for a box, for "pick any 6, up to 3 flavours" style boxes.
• A build-a-box now reads "Choose 6" on the product page instead of "Choose 1 option", and the box-only settings hide when a slot is set to Pick one.

4.5.1 - 2026-06-21 A thorough tidy-up of the bundle editor, so building a bundle is faster and clearer:

• Each item is now just the product, a quantity range (Qty and Max), and a "More options" fold, so the advanced settings stay out of the way until you want them.
• The Pricing tab leads with a single discount; bulk discounts and Buy X Get Y now sit folded together under "More pricing options" instead of scattered around.
• Plainer, more consistent wording throughout (Qty, Max, Buttons), and the Display options are now a tidy, aligned list.
• Removing an item asks you to confirm when it has products in it, so a stray click cannot lose your work.
• Fewer, more relevant tabs in the bundle editor.
• Fixed: the WooCommerce Linked Products tab (upsells, cross-sells, and grouped product children) shows on every product type again; a change in 4.4.13 had unintentionally restricted it to bundles.

4.5.0 - 2026-06-21 The Builder's biggest update yet. All of the following are in Pro:

• New: Configurator layout, a full-page two-pane builder with a live "Your build" summary and a price on every option, for big or many-part products like a gaming PC.
• New: Build-a-box (mix and match), customers fill a box by choosing any number from a pool, with a target size, per-product limits, and a live count and total.
• New: Gift mode, a recipient, gift message, optional gift wrap with a fee, and a no-prices gift receipt, all carried through to the order.
• New: Frequently bought together, surface companion products with a combined price and a set discount.
• New: Buy X get Y, buy-two-get-one-free style offers scoped to the bundle's own items, shown clearly as was, pay, and you save.
• New: Conditional items, show or hide a bundle item based on what the customer has already chosen, enforced on the server.

4.4.15 - 2026-06-21

• Housekeeping: a clearer plugin name so the shops that need bundles, kits and composite products can actually find BundleBoss. No changes to how the plugin works.

4.4.14 - 2026-06-21

• Fix: a bundle that sells several of one variation (a size run, for example) now adjusts that product's stock by the full quantity when an order is placed or cancelled, instead of by one. This keeps stock counts accurate and prevents overselling.
• New: if a product inside a bundle runs low after the bundle is in the cart, the shopper is told right on the cart, on both the classic and block carts, rather than only being stopped at checkout.
• The optional item toggle now reads "Included" or "Add" to match its current state, instead of always showing the same word.
• Fix: the "Edit" link for a bundle in the cart now appears in the mini-cart and block cart too, not just the main cart page.

4.4.13 - 2026-06-20

• New: set a bundle's Tax status and Tax class, so a bundle can use a reduced or zero rate, or be tax exempt, just like any other product. Bundles still default to Taxable at the standard rate.
• New: mark a bundle as Virtual when it ships nothing (digital or service bundles), which removes it from shipping.
• New: a "Sold individually" option to limit a bundle to one per order.
• New: Upsells and cross-sells for bundles, on the Linked Products tab.
• Fix: "Order again" now rebuilds a bundle's saved configuration instead of asking the customer to set it up from scratch.

4.4.12 - 2026-06-20

• New: a per-bundle Main image setting (Show, Hide, or update it from the customer's chosen colour).
• New: hide the image on any individual bundle item.
• The cart lists a bundle's contents as a clean, readable list on the classic cart, the mini-cart and the block cart.
• The bundle stock setting moved to the Inventory tab, where WooCommerce keeps stock.
• Phone polish: the summary bar sits correctly, colour tiles fit two or three across, and wide option tables scroll instead of clipping.
• Clearer choice-slot labels, plus display fixes for the grid layout, empty choice slots and per-item personalisation.
• Reliability: a guard against two active copies of the plugin, and a more dependable first-bundle tour.

4.4.11 - 2026-06-19

• The free version is now fully self-contained: it bundles no third-party SDK and connects to no external service.
• Added clear links to BundleBoss Pro from the Tools page and the bundle editor.

4.4.10

• Hardening: the free build carries no reference to Pro-only features in its admin screens or assets; guides for Builder features appear only when the Builder is active.

4.4.9

• Hardening: tightened input sanitisation, switched inline styles to the standard enqueue, and aligned class and data naming with the WordPress coding standards for the plugin directory. No change to how bundles work.
• Maintenance: the swatch colour stored on attribute terms moves to a fully prefixed key automatically on upgrade.

4.4.8

• Maintenance: updated the bundled Freemius library to version 2.13.2.

4.4.7

• Fix: the plugin header no longer uses the same URL for both Plugin URI and Author URI.
• Docs: reworded the Freemius note in the privacy section so it describes the optional opt-in accurately.

4.4.6

• Documentation: the privacy section now describes the Freemius licensing and update service and its optional, skippable usage analytics, so the readme matches the plugin's behaviour. No functional change.

4.4.5

• New: a "Help" tab on each bundle and a "Docs" link on the Plugins screen, both opening the step-by-step online guides.
• Improvement: identical units are grouped in the "What's in this bundle" summary and the collapsed item card (for example "XS / Black, 10 of them" rather than ten repeated lines).
• Fix: the onboarding tip no longer sits on top of the product-type dropdown.
• Improvement: tidier optional-item heading in the Grid page layout on narrow screens.
• Hardening: added capability checks to the admin product-search requests, switched the uninstall cleanup to a prepared query, and tightened input handling. No visible change.

4.4.4

• Improvement: colour swatches now fill in automatically from the colour's name, in both the grid and the configurator, so imported or custom-attribute products show the right colour dots without setting anything up. Recognises common colour names (and compound names like "Royal Blue" or "Heather Grey"); an unrecognised name falls back to showing the colour's label rather than a blank dot.

4.4.3

• Improvement (Pro): the Quantity grid always uses Colour for the tiles, whatever order your attributes are in, so a product whose first attribute is Size still shows colour tiles instead of size tiles.
• Improvement (Pro): choosing a colour no longer reflows the other tiles. The colour tiles stay put and the chosen colour's sizes open in a row beneath them.
• Improvement (Pro): the chosen size run now appears in the "What's in this bundle" summary, priced per variation.

4.4.2

• Improvement: the free version now shows "Quantity grid (Pro)" as a disabled option under Multiple items, so you can see the feature exists (the same way "Step by step (Pro)" appears). The grid itself stays a Pro feature.

4.4.1

• Fix: when a brand-new product was switched to the Bundle type and items were added in the same save, the items could be dropped on that first save (they only stuck if you saved once as a bundle, then added items and saved again). The save now trusts the product type being saved instead of a stale cached value, so the first save keeps everything.

4.4.0

• New (Pro): Quantity grid layout for size runs. A variable item bought in quantity can be shown as a grid of colour tiles; the customer taps a colour and types how many of each size, building a bulk run (for example 5 small navy and 5 large red) in one place instead of configuring each unit. Choose how the tiles look per bundle: swatches, swatches with names, names, or product photos
• Improvement: Choice slots now honour the bundle's multiple-item layout (compact cards, table or the quantity grid) for the product the customer picks, not just fixed items
• Improvement: Clarified the "Multiple items" setting help text, which only affects a variable product a customer can buy more than one of

4.3.1

• Fix: bundle items built from variable products that use custom (product-level) attributes now configure correctly. The configurator matched variations by attribute slug, which works for global (taxonomy) attributes but not custom ones, where WooCommerce stores the raw value; both are normalised now, so every combination resolves instead of showing "this combination is currently unavailable".

4.3.0

• New (Pro): Per-item personalisation. Optional add-on fields on any bundle item (text, textarea, number, dropdown, tick box, section label), captured per unit or once for the whole item. Each field or option can carry a fee that flows to the live total, cart, order and pick list. Required rules include an anchor-follower mode, so a method or position left without a name is simply ignored
• New (Pro): Logo and file upload on items. Secure upload (type allowlist, size cap, path confinement) that shows as a download link on the order and pick list, with privacy export/erase and a daily cleanup of abandoned uploads
• New: Three ways to arrange a multi-quantity item's units, chosen per bundle: stacked cards (default), compact cards, or a comparison table. The cart, order and pricing are identical whichever you choose
• New: "Apply to the rest". Configure one unit and copy its picks to the other units in a tap; each unit stays editable and names are left blank to fill in
• New: public bundle_boss:build_changed JavaScript event fires after every configurator change with the full build state, so developers can render outcome panels (weight, nutrition, performance) that update live
• New (Pro): choice slot candidates now surface deals. Products on sale show their strikethrough price and a "N% off" badge, and featured products carry a "Popular" ribbon. No setup: it reads the sale and featured flags your products already have
• New: a "What's in this build" recap inside the summary bar lists every pick with the price it adds, so customers can audit the total before adding to cart. Collapsed by default, grows live with the build
• New (Pro): hero slots. Tick "Chosen product sets the main image" on a choice slot and the customer's pick takes over the page's main product image, configurator-style. Reverts when the choice is cleared, and works with shared and edited builds

4.2.1

• New: Licensing, secure checkout, automatic Pro updates and the 14-day free trial, powered by Freemius (the free version stays fully functional and phones nobody without your say-so)

4.1.2

• New: Express-checkout protection. Instant-buy buttons (PayPal smart buttons, Apple/Google Pay) no longer appear on bundle PRODUCT pages, where nothing is configured yet; at cart and checkout every payment method still works exactly as normal. Any attempt to add an unconfigured bundle to the cart, by any plugin or API, is refused with a clear message
• Tested: full e2e suite verified with the PayPal Payments and Stripe gateway plugins active

4.1.0

• New: Cart & Checkout Blocks support. Bundles work end to end on the block-based cart and checkout (Store API), including the progress-to-discount nudge in the block cart and "+1 same configuration"; compatibility now declared
• New: Cart item titles link straight to the bundle in edit mode, across the classic cart, block cart and mini-cart
• New: Downloadable components deliver their files. Bundles can include licence keys, ebooks or software; download permissions are granted on payment with each product's own limits, and the files appear in order emails, the thank-you page and My Account → Downloads
• Tested: block themes (Full Site Editing), all three layouts verified on Twenty Twenty-Five

4.0.0

• New (Pro): The Builder, with choice slots: bundle items whose product the customer picks from a pool, PC-builder style, with per-slot discounts and lazy-loaded candidate grids
• New (Pro): Compatibility rules: "if slot A's choice has [tag], slot B must / must not have [tag]", hide or warn-only, enforced server-side
• New (Pro): Quantity rules: "when slot A has [tag], slot B can have at most N units", with live stepper caps
• New (Pro): Step-by-step layout, to walk customers through one item at a time with a progress bar, done ticks and free navigation
• New (Pro): Migrate from Composite Products. One click converts composites to draft bundles (components become choice slots); originals untouched, everything unmappable reported
• New: Shareable build links. A complete build copies to a stateless URL anyone can open and buy
• New: Export / import. All bundles as one portable JSON file (WooCommerce → BundleBoss); products matched by SKU/slug on import with a full report
• New: First-bundle tour, a short, dismissible walkthrough from product type to publish on a fresh install
• New: Opt-in data removal on uninstall (default keeps everything safe)
• New: WPML/Polylang support. Settings copy to translations, slot labels translatable, product/term references mapped per language
• New: Unlimited max quantities (leave Max empty), plain-English admin help tips throughout
• Improved: grid layout rebuilt with container-responsive cards. Proper grids in wide theme columns, a clean list presentation in narrow ones
• Improved: edit-from-cart restores simple-item quantities; consistent trash-icon row controls; admin product search fixes (backspace, whitespace, pagination)
• Fix: the sale countdown progress bar stayed empty when a sale had only an end date
• Performance: audited against a 50,000-product catalogue; every storefront endpoint answers in under 250ms median
• Dev: full WordPress-Extra coding standards pass (zero errors), shipped ruleset

3.6.0

• New: Progress-to-discount callout on the cart. "Add 1 more to unlock 15% off" with a progress bar, a one-click "+1 same configuration" button and a link to configure a different one
• New: Sale Period fields use a bundled flatpickr date-time picker (single field, styled calendar)
• New: Accessibility pass. Labelled groups, aria-pressed chips, keyboard-operable accordion (Enter/Space/Escape), visible focus styles
• Improved: completed items no longer auto-collapse, so customers review their choices and collapse on demand
• Improved: sticky card headers keep the collapse control in reach inside tall cards; collapsing keeps the header anchored with zero scroll jump
• Improved: simple products no longer show an empty restrict-options box or the options display picker in the admin
• Fix: included optional simple items were dropped from the cart price
• Fix: repeated "Update Bundle" added a new cart line instead of replacing
• Fix: editing a bundle forgot that an optional item had been excluded
• Fix: submit button label accumulated ellipses on repeated clicks
• Dev: asset cache-busting under WP_DEBUG; Mailpit mail catcher; make dist release packaging; GitHub Actions CI

3.5.0

• New: Shipping support. Shipping tab enabled for bundles with automatic (sum of chosen components) or manual weight mode
• New: Selection validation extracted to a reusable, tested function
• Performance: component-to-bundle index replaces full catalogue scan when component prices change
• Tests: tax, coupon, validation, shipping weight and index coverage (46 assertions)
• Housekeeping: uninstall.php, readme.txt, translation template

3.4.0

• New: Fixed-price bundle mode alongside percentage discount
• New: Checkout-time component stock revalidation
• New: a pick list of component SKUs on admin orders; aggregated contents in emails
• Fix: cart line quantity now multiplies into stock checks, stock reduction and tier counting
• Fix: tier discounts were never applied in the cart (price override discarded the cart price)

3.3.0

• New: Colour swatches for attribute terms (term meta + colour picker + swatch column)

3.2.x

• New: Sale countdown timer with schedule, related-bundles carousel, Bundle Promotions tab
• New: Accordion configurator with auto-advance, "All the same" toggle
• Fix: stock cap fields conflict with WooCommerce core inventory fields
