Adding multiple option values at one time

[isaacr25]

I'm currently adding many option names and option values to different products. I'm having to insert one option value at a time in the Attributes Controller for the products. Is there anyway to add multiple option values for one option name to a product, at one time (instead of having to do it one by one)? Thanks.

Do ALL of the Products that need 1 Attribute need ALL of the Option Values for the Option Name?

Can you use the Copy Attributes from 1 Product to 1 Product or the Copy Attributes from 1 Product to a Category of Products?

Almost the same situation, but I need to add 6 colors to a product, but have 12 listed and no product has the same color. The sizes are all the same, so can I copy just that attribute?

You can make a temp Product with the Attribute(s) that you want to copy to other Product(s) and copy them to either 1 Product or a Category of Products ...

You need to give more specific details of what you are really trying to do to break this down further ...

There are copy features on the Options Names Manager and on the Options Values Manager as well as on the Attributes Controller ...

Before trying any of these, be sure to backup your database so if you goof, you can put everything back to how it was ...

I know there was a mod for OsCommerce that put all the attributes on the bottom of the product edit page. So you could click the check box for all the attributes you wanted to add at once.

Have you guys tried this: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=114

I use it for a shoe store and it works GREAT! Huge time saver.

@Ajah,

This is such a small edit (seems to me... only one file), and such a HUGE help, do you think it can be added to the next upgrade?

Thanks!
