About this Solution

Changing the variable product drop down text from “Choose An Option” is key to tailoring your store for a better User Experience (UX). If you’re using dates as variations for example, it doesn’t really make sense for the placeholder text to say “Choose an option”. It would make more sense for it to say “Choose a date”. This short code snippet shows you how you can change the “Choose an option” drop down placeholder text on WooCommerce variable products.

    $args['show_option_none'] = 'Choose a date';
    return $args;
