Four setup steps

Create your first fixed product bundle

The plugin uses the standard WooCommerce product editor. Start with products or variations that already have their price, tax, stock, and shipping data.

Install Advanced Bundles Free

Download the installable ZIP. In WordPress, open Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin, choose the ZIP, then install and activate it.

Bundle editor Bundle components use the standard WooCommerce product editor. Open full-size Bundle editor image
Create a Bundle product

Open Products → Add New. Add the product name, description, images, and categories customers should see. In Product data, choose Bundle.

Product data

Choose “Bundle”

The bundle itself groups the purchase. Its total comes from the included item prices.
Add products and quantities

Open Bundle components. Select a simple product or an exact variation, set its fixed quantity, and use Add component for each additional item.

At least one component is required. A bundle cannot contain another bundle.

Example

Workshop Notebook
Simple product · quantity 1

Marker Set — Blue
Exact variation · quantity 2
Publish and test the bundle

Publish the product, open its storefront page, and add it to the cart. Check every included item, quantity, price, stock result, shipping charge, tax amount, and final total before using the bundle on a live store.

What happens after a customer adds the bundle

The customer buys one bundle. WooCommerce still receives separate component lines for price, stock, tax, shipping, and refunds.

Price and tax

The bundle total is the sum of component prices. Each component keeps its own tax data.

Stock checks

WooCommerce counts every required component quantity in the cart and checks stock again before checkout.

Shipping

Physical components keep their shipping data instead of turning the bundle into one artificial line.

Orders and refunds

Orders keep purchased component names, SKUs, quantities, and totals. Item refunds restore stock once.

WooCommerce bundle questions

Answers cover Advanced Bundles Free and its fixed-bundle workflow.

How is the bundle price calculated?

The bundle price is the sum of the included product or variation prices. Each item keeps its own tax data.

Can a bundle include product variations?

Yes. Choose the exact variation you want to include. The customer receives that fixed variation and quantity.

Can customers choose the products inside the bundle?

No. Advanced Bundles Free uses fixed products, variations, and quantities. Customer-selectable alternatives are planned for Pro, which is not available yet.

What happens when a component is out of stock?

WooCommerce checks the combined quantity required by the cart and validates stock again before checkout. The bundle cannot be purchased when the required stock is unavailable and backorders are not allowed.

Can a bundle contain another bundle?

No. Nested bundles are rejected. Add simple products or exact variations as components.
