Attributes in Shopibx allow you to add specific characteristics to your products, such as size, color, material, or any other custom specification. By adding attributes, you can give your customers more detailed information about your products and allow them to filter and search based on these attributes.
How Attributes Work #
- What Are Attributes?
- Attributes are used to define certain characteristics of your products. For example, for a T-shirt, attributes could include Size (Small, Medium, Large), Color (Red, Blue, Green), or Material (Cotton, Polyester).
- These attributes are associated with your products, giving customers more information and making it easier for them to find the product they are looking for.
- Adding a New Attribute
- Step 1: To add a new attribute, go to Attributes in the product section.
- Step 2: Click Add Attribute to start creating a new attribute.
- Step 3: In the Name field, enter the name of the attribute (e.g., Size, Color, Material).
- Configuring Attribute Options
- After creating an attribute, you need to Configure Terms. Terms are the specific values that will be used for this attribute. For example, if the attribute is Size, the terms could be Small, Medium, and Large.
- Click Configure terms to set the available options for that attribute.
- Adding Attribute Options
- Step 1: Click Add Attribute Option to create new terms for the attribute.
- Step 2: Enter the name of the option (e.g., Small, Red, Cotton).
- Step 3: You can add multiple options for each attribute, such as adding Medium and Large for the Size attribute, or Blue and Green for the Color attribute.
- Assigning Attributes to Products
- Once you have created the attributes and options, you can assign them to specific products.
- While editing a product, you can select the relevant attributes and options that apply to the product.
Why Use Attributes? #
- Enhanced Product Information: Attributes allow you to provide more detailed descriptions of your products, helping customers make better-informed purchase decisions.
- Improved Search and Filter: Customers can filter products based on attributes (e.g., size or color), making it easier for them to find the products they want.
- Inventory and Management: Attributes can also help with inventory management, as you can track different variations of the same product (e.g., a red T-shirt and a blue T-shirt).
By using Attributes, you can better organize your products, provide more options for your customers, and improve the overall shopping experience on your Shopibx store.
