- If swatches still don’t show on Category Pages, check Product Pages:
- If swatches are missing on Product Pages too, it’s likely a product configuration or Magento swatch setup issue.
Notes on Magento Swatch Configuration
Pearl Theme uses Magento’s default swatch configuration. For setup guidance, see the official Magento documentation:
