    • URL: URL will change as chosen options. If customers access to the URL, options are also selected in the product page.
    • Custom URL has a form: …/Product-Name+attr1-Value1+attr2-Value2 (For instance: …/hero-hoodie+color-Black+size-S), it changes when choosing attributes of product.

  • Support minimum quantity for product separately added to cart instead of the default of Magento 2, which only allows for configurable products.

  • Support quantity increment for children products. This function outweighs the default with ability to set increment for each associated product of configurable product. For example, if you set 5 for quantity increment for a skirt-red-L, then your customer cannot buy this item with quantity 1-2-3 or 6-7-8 only choose this product with 5-10-15 etc in quantity box.
