Variable product stock quantity - woocommerce

We have 2 attributes for sizes on our WooCommerce store - a bikini top and bikini bottom. We allow users to mix and match sizes. E.g. they can pick a Small top and a Medium bottom
We have a problem with stock control. If a customer buys a Small top and a Medium bottom then we can only reduce the stock quantity by 1. This wouldn't be right as we'd only be selling half the product. Has anyone come across this before? Or any plugins out there for this functionality?
Thanks

Multiple products to share the same stock/sku?

I have a WooCommerce web shop that offers interchangeable sandals.
These straps are compatible with multiple heels (categories) and so I need to show them in different places on my site with different product images, but as they are essentially the same physical item they need to be registered on the same SKU so they can share stock amount.
Does anybody have an idea for solving this problem?
If we can't do multiple products on the same SKU.
Mabe a product image that is path determined so it is only the product image that changes depending on which category the item is opened under.

Woocommerce Bulk discount

Is it possible to apply discount on specific item??
I want to apply discount on my pizza site like, If customer order one small & one large pizza then discount may not apply.
my disounts settings applying to all items. when customer order one small and one large pizza, discount may apply.
I want to apply discount policy on same items, like, if customer order two small or two large pizzas.
Please help me.
You need an extra plugin as I don't think it includes it in the standard woo commerce. This is how I done it for a project.
Here's link for plugin

You can find more extensions to woo commerce if you need them by clicking on woo commerce in the admin panel and then selecting add-ons, there's a fair few to choose from

Customers can add variation to cart even when drop down menu not selected

I run a website that sells variants of the same product, allowing customers to select from a drop down menu to choose which one they want. In this case, choosing between 125ml and 250ml.
The problem is, customers can add a product to their cart, even if no size has been selected and it still says Please Select in the drop down field. In this case, the Starting From price will be added to the cart, and if a transaction goes through I have no way of knowing what size they actually wanted.
Is there any way I can block their ability to Add to Cart until they make a selection?
Thanks in advance.
yes - that is the way amazon does it for some products especially when you have to choose both a size and color option. the buy button is disabled, there is a message above it to choose a size, and sometimes they won't show the price until you choose.
However - thats only for products with lots of different sizes - and you only have two sizes. So my suggestion would be - just put the two products on there: the size, the price, and a buy button for each one. Eliminate the drop down completely. You have plenty of room to do this and it will make it much easier for the customer to compare price/size, click and buy - which translates to more sales.
my other suggestion would be if possible to bring them to the cart page when they click to buy. on the cart page tighten up the shipping options and put some other recommended products below that to encourage them to browse the store more. p.s. you have awesome products keep up the good work.

Allow duplicate products in woo commerce cart

Does anybody know how to set up product variations using Fancy Product Designer?
I.e. Different color t-shirts of the same size
You want to set up Product Variations.
EG You may have a T-Shirt that comes in various sizes. The TShirt is the product, however the variations are Large Medium Small. They cann all hold the same SKU or you can modify the SKU for each variant
More info here http://docs.woothemes.com/document/product-variations/
I had this with a tshirt company site that I was creating. What I had to do was give each item an individual stock number (SKU) for each design despite it being the same tshirt.
Hope this helps,
Ben.

woocommerce dynamic pricing display discount table

I use the woocommerce dynamic pricing plugin by Lucas Stark, the problem is that it doesn't display the discounts which isn't great from a marketing perspective. The problem is highlighted well here
This code, found in the Chris Lema link above, does display a discount table. BUT I use % discounts and this code doesn't work with that. e.g. a product's normal price is $100, 5% off if they buy more than 5, 10% off if they buy 10 or more, shows as price for 5 or more $5 10 or more $10. Clearly this isn't right it should display 5 or more $95 10 or more $90 - How do I achieve that?
Lastly from a marketing perspective it would be good if all products with a quantity discount displayed the cheapest price on the main price. e.g a product that is $100 normally, but with 5% off if you buy 5 or more or 10% off if you buy 10 or more should display the discount table as above but should also display from $90 i.e. the cheapest price, as the main price instead of $100 - How do I achieve that?
"...for performance reasons we decided that it should remain out" according to the plugin creator, Lucas.
I am thinking of a workaround like a meta box in each post where you can type discount information in just plain text and then hook to woocommerce_price_html(which runs everytime the shop page and single product page is displayed), thus eliminating the need to tweak Lucas Stark's plugin.
Lucas also released a new extension
( October 2013 ) which is purported to be 'a great way to let users know about a discount they can receive if they purchase more products.' This user said this extension has issues with discount tables, but I haven't tried it myself.
I haven't used either personally, but http://www.wplab.com/shop/woocommerce-bulk-pricing/ does bulk pricing with a display table if that's the killer feature.
try this plugin http://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-dynamic-discounts/6533113
It does allow to create discounts similar to what you need plus it displays discounts on both single and variable products .
try the demo here http://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-dynamic-discounts/full_screen_preview/6533113
There are more alternatives that are capable of displaying a quantity pricing table. Like the one that james posted or WooCommerce Dynamic Pricing & Discounts.
Also, it would be possible to hire some freelancer that would make it work with the plugin that you are referring to.
Here is a solution - though it does not (currently) allow the filtering of pricing results based on user role....
