Adding Attributes to the Products

[spiderclock]

I have my products uploaded to my websites and I have also created attributes.

But for each product i have to put minimum of 15-20 attributes which is too much lengthy and time taking

Can anyone help me how to get it done through excelsheet or any other way

Consider the Attribute Clone tool which was written for v2.2 but should work with v2.3.x with very little changes.

You could consider Easy Populate but success varies according to individual needs.

Well, out of the contributions currently available, those are your choices. You could custom code something to suit your needs, that way it will be as YOU want it.

You could try the attributes manager. It allows you to control the attributes on the product page.

Easy Populate should be able to cope with a thousand products at a time with 15-20 attributes no problem. But it does depend on the amount of text per attribute. All work done in excel/libre office upload as csv.

 

If you need a template, download a product with the attributes you want.

 

All this under the proviso when you say 15-20 attributes you mean total. As opposed to 15-20 sets of attributes per category/manufacturer.

 

If you have 20 manufacturers with 15 different attribs each, things will get impossible quickly as you will be dealing with 300 columns plus in excel.
