Creating Category for Options

[lat9]

The bold above. I don't understand.

Why for example would one enter the option name "size" more than once?

Size is size... Regardless if the size relates to shoes, shirts, pants, picture frames, nail lengths, bolt hole, etc....if the word size: is expected to be shown, then why list it more than once? What am I missing?

Now if the option name is to be shoe size: then well that won't work with pants or engines... :)

Though I'm trying to understand this "other" attribute setup, regardless of the underlying structure I don't yet see that creating the same thing multiple times solves anything. I would like to be smacked in the face with what the "difference" is so that I could maybe do something about it or at least incorporate something into Stock by Attributes to give it the largest applicability as possible. :)

One reason to have multiple option names (e.g. multiple "Size" or "Color" options) would be if you want the formatting to be different types (dropdown vs. radio-button) or different attribute-image layouts.

Thank you lat9, that does make sense. Can see how that/those differences can also be "problematic" on the admin side without making note of the applicable # associated with the desired attribute. Also how any additional info on the admin side would be something unique to the store (ie. Not needed by everyone.)

Will have to see what needs to be done for EasyPopulate to further consider those "subtle" differences.
