Attribute Values

Assigning a Price Label

Attributes are typically to individual Products, but they can also be assigned from the Attribute Value screen, or in bulk via a CSV Import.

How will it appear?

Product Listing Pages

Attributes are used to power the filters. In addition to automated filters for elements like 'price' and 'collection' or 'category', other filters will be powered by assigned attributes.

Filters can either be displayed as a grid (if they have images, as per the 'filter by colour' example, below, or in a list. The 'filter by flavour', seen below, is an example of the list.

Product Detail Pages

Attributes will also be output as part of the Product Specification within the Product Detail Pages. Here, assigned Attributes will sit alongside fixed fields such as Dimensions and Condition.
