Why should you opt for Mageplaza Size Chart extension for Magento 2
Apparel and accessories have a huge number of sizes, including sizes for dresses, tops, shirts, shorts, footwears and so many more. For each item, there are separate men and women sizing systems, such as UK size, EU size, US size and some reputable brands even own their sizing system.
Because the size varies based on each product and sizing standard, consumers often have to consider choosing the right size for them. In physical stores, shoppers can freely try clothes on and figure out which size fits them. However, this trying thing is impossible in online stores. Customers cannot even touch your products. So what you need to do is to offer them an appropriate sizing system. Then shoppers can easily look for their sizes and make a purchase quickly.
If size charts are not available in your shop, customers are likely to abandon their cart and go to other stores.
Well, understanding this concern, Mageplaza provides Size Chart Popup to help you enhance customer experience. Below are some of the outstanding features that Size Chart extension can benefit your store.
Numerous size charts
According to catalog rules configured in the backend, size charts on the product page, including size tables and size guides for each product, product type or for the entire category can be generated. These size charts can be set up to display, based on existing category names: Female, Male, Bottoms, Tops, and so on; existing page URL, or the existing product page. Therefore, there is no restriction on showing size charts. Store owners can set up to add or remove size charts depending on categories and give priority to size chart rules. This can help prevent conflicts happening as many categories contain the same product.

Size Charts in Products
If you want to install a specific product without a rule, you can go to Catalog > Product > Edit Product and decide the size chart rule for the product by customizing the size chart attribute.

For example, Product A stays in two categories which are Men and Jackets
Case 1: Shoppers access product A by the path: Home > Men> Tops > Jackets > A. In this specific case, the size chart for product A will be enforced by the Rule of Jackets category.
Case 2. Shoppers access product A by the path: Home > Men> A. In this specific case, the size chart for product A will be enforced by the Rule of Women category.
- No: The product will not follow the Size Chart rule
- Select a rule created in Manage Rules: Choose any other size chart rule and it is eligible even if you turn off the rule.
Size Chart in Categories
Go to Catalog > Categories, and configure the attribute Size Chart similar to when setting Size Chart in Edit Product.
If you choose Size Chart = Inherit from Rule, the picked items (Inherit from Rule in the Edit Product) in the Category will follow the rule with the qualifying condition and the highest or smallest priority.
