I need 2 separate purchase buttons on product page ----> one for simple and one for variations - wordpress

I am totally stumped in figuring this out and I think I am doing too many extra things in order to fix a simple issue. (I hope)
I am an artist, and I am selling prints and am also offering the original piece for sale on my website. I am trying to figure out how, on the single product page, to add a SEPARATE button that allows the customer to purchase the original piece. I tried adding it as a variable but it is not user friendly and other selections disappear if customers want to go back and select other print options. I do not want the option to purchase the original piece mixed in as a variable. I want it totally separate.
I have created drop down pages for prints and originals on my main site menu but it is messing up when the base ‘shop’ page is clicked because doubles pop up for each product- one is presented as a range in price (the prints) and the other is what the original costs. It is confusing and looks terrible. On top of that, when I try to upload/add new art pieces to either the ‘prints’ or ‘original work’ categories, they don’t show up on either page, they only show up on the ‘base’ shop page.
Is there ANY way to simplify this into removing the ‘prints’ and ‘original works’ subcategories and only have my base ‘shop’ page to display each product, BUT adding a button for the option to ‘purchase original’ along with ‘purchase prints’ on the actual single product page? I have been looking for answers for weeks and haven’t found anything.
Please help!! Thank you so much in advance! I have no clue what I am doing!!!
I have tried adding the 'original' piece into the variations menu and it didn't work correctly. I created subcategories for 'originals' and 'prints' but that is making my base shop page display double products, and when I upload new products and put them in their correct category, they dont go onto those pages, they stay on the base page.
I just want a 'Purchase Original' <---- simple product and a 'Purchase Prints'<----- variable product with size/material options.

My Woocommerce shop page doesn't show correctly. Products are not arranged in similar pattern?

My shop page look like this https://ibb.co/bBfEdF
It is showing like this here because some products have long product name & some have short. In the same way some products are having price mentioned and some are without price.
I have tried so many thing but couldn’t figure it out to set it automatically in same pattern, when I am making changes in the CSS files the changes are modifying other pages too, so I need to resolve this by without affecting other pages.
Can I set product names to be displayed always in one single line, weather the name is too short or long.
Either can I fix the box size for each row so that it look like similar for each product along with name.
Its one of Woocommerce flaws. The fast solution is to give the product titles a similar word count

WooCommerce Product Category Widget Behaviour (navigating to products)

I am very new here and hope I am going about this write. I searched topics but could not find one specifically about this.
I can't give a link to this because the site is in maintenance mode so I am going to try to explain it the best I can.
I have WooCommerce Product Category Widget setup as a sidebar navigation for a complex category setup.
I have:
Show hierarchy Only show children of the current category
Both checked on.
This works great when people are navigating the categories. But, as soon as they click on a product and it goes to a product page, the hierarchy closes in the sidebar. I'd like to still see those subcategories open while on the product page.
I can't turn off the Children option because, while it's a partial solution, the the entire complex tree is showing at all times and it's just way too big.
Is there some method to keep that hierarchy open once you go to a product page?
Thanks for any info.

Filtering Posts by tags and displaying them underneath instantly

On my website I have all kinds of products (gift ideas) and want to make them easier accessible for visitors.
The plan is to build a page called 'present finder', where you can select a price range, the persons age (kid, teenie or grownup) and tags referring to their interests (e.g. Design, Nature, Travel, Sports).
It should look something like this:
Link to how it should look
I doubt I would have any trouble building the GUI, or tagging all my posts but:
Question:
How do I make it work that as soon as options are changed (like tags
or price range), the right posts are being displayed underneath
instantly? I don't want to be forced to install a 'search' button and I dont want the page to reload every time the user adds a
tag or changes the price range.
Is there maybe a plugin that does exactly what I need so I don't have to build it from scratch?
I researched for over 40 min and couldn't find anything.
Thanks a lot for your help. Cheers!

Make WooCommerce filters 'stick'

I'm new to WooCommerce..and I have my sidebar setup so that it lists the product categories and then also at the top provides the ability to apply filters. The filter works fine on the current page, but if the user clicks a different product category the filter is 'deactivated'. Is there not a way to have that filter stay on the whole time the user is browsing products in various categories? I want it to stay enabled until the user turns it off.
To me this seems like obvious functionality, as from a user perspective it would be annoying to have to turn it on each time I view a new category.
Am I just missing something to make this work? Or is there some kind of work around?
Thank you!

woocommerce: how to add new fields to variations form and show them on frontend

using last versions of wordpress, woocommerce and cheope (theme).
the question: how to
add some extra fields in variations form (text and image field types)
show them on frontend so that their values change accordingly on changing of attributes-select values.
e.g.: the site sells candles and uses variable products, for each kind of candle has several dimensions (with specific different prices), each of which has different duration.
The duration is an important element that I want the user to be informed about.
The same to show the available colors all together.
Unluckily in the standard variation form there is no field where I can insert these or other features.
some help please?
updated 07-August-2013
I succeeded in adding to variations form a new field displayed on back-end, as you can see here, by inserting the code you can find here (please see the comments too) in the function.php file of the theme.
Now, what I’m not able to do is get this field to display with each proper value on front-end (please take a look to the last comment in the above linked page).
Any tip or trick?
thanks
1)Add product attribute and check checkbox Used for variations and Visible on the product page
2)go to variations and add new and fill all fields price and stock must add on them
