Thanks for the tip, but I tried that. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. All it does is turn each button into a link to that model's page. It's supposed to just add the correct model to the shopping cart. But you did give me the idea to inspect the code on a model with the product variant mod working correctly. When I pasted their code directly into mine (with their model ID) it worked perfectly. But when all I did was change the model ID to the correct one (for the model I made) it went back to not working. This leads me to believe that it's something wrong with the model the code is linking to, rather than the one i'm trying to display to the public. I contacted Shapeways directly, but all they told me is that it's a problem they hope will be fixed by the next update, but nobody can give me a ballpark of when that might be. I don't know about you, but for me, this means I don't know if I should bother continuing to price all the variant models, or if I'm eventually going to have to upload them again and start from scratch. And I don't know if I should create more public display pages, because they'll eventually be fixed automatically, or if I'll have to start from scratch with those too. And all of this is because there's no better way to simply create a model with more than one version or size?
EDIT:
Based on a question from equilux, I tried setting the model to both "Offer for sale to others" and "Display to the public." That does make it work, but then I have the problem of displaying every single size to the public. But the whole point of doing it this way is to avoid displaying every single size to the public. It's already difficult enough to look through the more than 50 models that I have available. If I make each of the 25 sizes of each ring available, then people have to sift through more than 1,250 models. I can't even control the order of my models to make sure that the right 50 show up first, because people can change the default view. Besides, though, the lab says that it's supposed to work without the model being displayed.
