Remove Choose an Option

Hi!

Here’s a pretty simple solution for WC >2.4 that avoids rewriting functions and cluttering up your functions.php..

Add the variable.php file to your theme (http://docs.woothemes.com/document/template-structure/), and change this (from line 27):

<?php foreach ( $attributes as $attribute_name => $options ) : ?>
<tr>
    <td class="label"><label for="<?php echo sanitize_title( $attribute_name ); ?>"><?php echo wc_attribute_label( $attribute_name ); ?></label></td>
    <td class="value">
        <?php
            $selected = isset( $_REQUEST[ 'attribute_' . sanitize_title( $attribute_name ) ] ) ? wc_clean( $_REQUEST[ 'attribute_' . sanitize_title( $attribute_name ) ] ) : $product->get_variation_default_attribute( $attribute_name );
            wc_dropdown_variation_attribute_options( array( 'options' => $options, 'attribute' => $attribute_name, 'product' => $product, 'selected' => $selected ) );
            echo end( $attribute_keys ) === $attribute_name ? '<a class="reset_variations" href="#">' . __( 'Clear selection', 'woocommerce' ) . '</a>' : '';
        ?>
    </td>
</tr><?php endforeach;?>

to this:

<?php 
$variations_arr = array();
foreach ( $attributes as $attribute_name => $options ) : 
    ob_start(); ?>
    <tr>
        <td class="label"><label for="<?php echo sanitize_title( $attribute_name ); ?>"><?php echo wc_attribute_label( $attribute_name ); ?></label></td>
        <td class="value">
            <?php $selected = isset( $_REQUEST[ 'attribute_' . sanitize_title( $attribute_name ) ] ) ? wc_clean( $_REQUEST[ 'attribute_' . sanitize_title( $attribute_name ) ] ) : $product->get_variation_default_attribute( $attribute_name );
            wc_dropdown_variation_attribute_options( array( 'options' => $options, 'attribute' => $attribute_name, 'product' => $product, 'selected' => $selected ) );
            echo end( $attribute_keys ) === $attribute_name ? '<a class="reset_variations" href="#">' . __( 'Clear selection', 'woocommerce' ) . '</a>' : ''; ?>
        </td>
    </tr>
    <?php $variations_ob = ob_get_clean();
    $variations_arr[wc_attribute_label($attribute_name)] = $variations_ob;
endforeach;

foreach ($variations_arr as $name => $ob) {
    echo str_ireplace('choose an option', 'Choose '.$name, $ob );
} ?>

This will replace ‘Choose an option’ with ‘Choose Size’, ‘Choose Colour’ etc. depending on the name of your attribute.
