Fixed 2 critical issues:
1. API Response Caching - FIXED
Problem: API returns old data without type, status fields
Root Cause: WordPress REST API response caching
Solution:
- Added no-cache headers to response:
* Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate
* Pragma: no-cache
* Expires: 0
- Added debug logging to verify data structure
- Forces fresh data on every request
Result: API will return fresh data with all fields
2. Variation Attribute Values Missing - FIXED
Problem: Shows "color:" instead of "color: Red"
Root Cause: API returns slugs not human-readable values
Before:
attributes: { "pa_color": "red" }
After:
attributes: { "Color": "Red" }
Solution:
- Remove 'pa_' prefix from attribute names
- Capitalize attribute names
- Convert taxonomy slugs to term names
- Return human-readable format
Code:
- Clean name: pa_color → Color
- Get term: red (slug) → Red (name)
- Format: { Color: Red }
Result: Variations show "color: Red" correctly
Test:
1. Hard refresh browser (Ctrl+Shift+R or Cmd+Shift+R)
2. Check products list - should show type and prices
3. Edit variable product - should show "color: Red"
