📚 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
20will appear above a layer with order10. -
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
- Go to WP Configurator > Configurator Products.
- Edit the product you want to modify.
- In the Configurator Editor panel:
- Click on an Image Layer.
- Each layer will have a Layer Order field.
- Enter a number to define its position in the stack.
