Chamevo Multistep Product Configurator

Turn the variation dropdowns on your WooCommerce variable products into a guided, step-by-step configurator. Instead of one long list of options, customers move through clear steps, choosing color, size, material, and more, with an image thumbnail for every choice. The result is a smoother buying experience, especially on mobile, where 70 to 80% of shoppers browse. It works with the variable products and attributes you already have. No rebuild, no new product type. Live demos

1.0.0 Initial release under the Chamevo brand (formerly Multistep Product Configurator).

• Added: native chamevo-js integration via the <cv-customizer> web component (cvReady / cvProductCreate events, chamevo.canvas.addElement()).
• Added: [chamevo_module type="..."] shortcode support and the chamevo_before_product_designer / chamevo_after_product_designer placement hooks.
• Added: Chamevo Modules subsection on the product-data tab for inserting customizer modules (Products, Graphics, Text, Designs, Manage Layers, Text Layers, Layouts, My Designs, Save / Load, Names & Numbers) as extra tabs.
• Added: one-shot migration that renames legacy keys (chamevo_mspc_variation_fpd_params_ -> chamevo_params, chamevo_mspc_fpd_modules -> chamevo_mspc_modules, before/after_fancy_product_designer module positions -> _chamevo_designer).
• Added: WooCommerce HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) compatibility declaration.
• Added: expanded plugin header (Plugin URI, Requires at least, Requires PHP, Tested up to, WC requires at least, WC tested up to).
• Added: class-level and file-level DocBlocks across every PHP file, plus @param / @return annotations.
• Changed: full rebrand of text domain, capability, plugin slug, asset folders, CSS classes, JS bundle, and admin labels to chamevo-multistep-product-configurator / chamevo_mspc_ / chamevo-mspc-.
• Changed: product-data tab UX overhaul with four sections (Layout, Behavior, Placement, Chamevo Modules) on a two-column responsive grid and inline-checkbox Behavior row.
• Changed: clarified labels (Module -> Layout Style, Module Position -> Configurator Position, Product Image -> Product Gallery, Under MSPC -> Under Configurator) and help-tip icons on every dropdown.
• Changed: head_handler() rewritten with apply_product_image_placement() / apply_module_position() lookup tables instead of long else-if chains.
• Changed: WPCS sweep -- strict / Yoda comparisons across the codebase.
• Changed: all asset enqueues now ship a version param so updates bust the browser cache.
• Removed: Fancy Product Designer integration and the legacy [fpd_module] shortcode / fpd_before_product_designer / fpd_after_product_designer hooks.
• Removed: stray var_dump("test") debug call from the shortcode handler.
• Fixed: the Chamevo graphic-options modal now opens correctly (preserves the mspc-set-fpd-params / mspc-fpd-params DOM ids while the form name switches to chamevo_mspc_chamevo_params).
• Fixed: chamevo_mspc_not_empty() uses strict equality so boolean false is no longer treated as the literal string '0'.
