Managing Products Features :

The difference between an attribute and a feature is that attributes are used to create combinations of the product, while features are not. If you add a feature to a product, the feature applies to all the combinations of the products.

Features are optional product quality that provides more information and details about the product. They cannot be changed through the product variations, as they are not options but standard specifications that will be listed in the datasheet section of your product.

  1. To create a new feature go to CatalogAttributes & Features section. Choose the Feature tab and click on the Add new feature button :

2. Fill the form :

  • Name – add the title name of the feature.
