Hi all...I have a storefront where my products require A LOT of attributes so instead of plugging each into the backend CP of Zen, I went directly into MySQL to insert my attributes in the proper fields. Im not a SQL pro nor am I a Zen pro but this didn't seem too difficult. I opted to do it this way so I can use Excel to neatly create all my option pairs.
My problem now is that my option names are all there and my option values are all there but the two are not linked to one another. What links the two together? Is it one of the fields that have to have the same number?
For instance, this is a gun holster site. Here's a sample of some options:
Option Name: Left or Right Hand
Option VALUE: Left
Option VALUE: Right
Option Name: Color of Holster
Option VALUE: Black
Option VALUE: Mahogany
Option VALUE: Chestnut
Option VALUE: Tan
All the fields seem to be populated correctly in my database but the values are not showing up under the names in Zen's backend. Any idea what links the two to say that:
If Option Name "Left or Right Hand" is selected, link that to Option Value "Right" and Option Value "Left".
These are all of my total option NAMES:
"products_options_id";"language_id";"products_options_name";"products_options_so rt_order";"products_options_type";"products_options_length";"products_options_co mment";"products_options_size";"products_options_images_per_row";"products_optio ns_images_style";"products_options_rows";

.....and these are my total option VALUES......How do I link the two?
