 WP Configurator Plugin – Layer Order Feature

The Layer Order feature in WP Configurator controls the stacking order of images (parts or layers) within a configurator product. This determines which image appears on top when multiple layers are displayed.

How It Works

Each layer in a part can be assigned a Layer Order value. This value is a simple number (e.g., 1, 10, 99) that tells the system how to stack the layers:

  • Higher values are rendered on top of lower ones.
  • Lower values go beneath higher ones.

For example:

  • A layer with order 20 will appear above a layer with order 10.
  • If two layers have the same order value, their order will default to the sequence they are loaded in (not recommended).
 Where to Set the Layer Order
  1. Go to WP Configurator > Configurator Products.
  2. Edit the product you want to modify.
  3. In the Configurator Editor panel:
    • Click on an Image Layer.
    • Each layer will have a Layer Order field.
  4. Enter a number to define its position in the stack.
