Copying attributes between option names

[EyefulTower]

I have an option name with a load of option values attached to it.
If I have another option name which needs the same option values can I just copy from one to the other, or do I need to build them all again?

Thanks,
Rick

There is a copy all Option Values from one Option Name to another ...

Peek on Option Name Manager and Option Value Manager to see this and other copy methods available ...

I have a question sorta in regards to this. In my quest to find an easy way to sell long light bulbs of various sizes and have the cart calculate proper shipping while letting customers easier mix and match but at the same time force them to choose the proper box weight I have drop down menus containing about 50 option names. Each of these options is independently priced as bulb prices vary. I know I can copy over all the option names to the each value (Bulbs 1 - 6 as 6 fit in the box) but is there a way to copy over the pricing to the new value... I do not see an easy way in the attribute controller.

Here is a link to what i am doing though dont mind the rather empty page as till I know if I can I am waiting to produce the menus for bulbs 2 - 6 and the rest of the page

When in the Attributes Controller ... and looking at the Product with the Attributes ... you will see 2 buttons for Copy to Product and Copy to Category ...

NOTE: backup your database before trying these ...

Looks like that will only let you copy the attributes to a different item. Looks like I will just have to reprice it all 5 more time by hand

Aaargh. I can see it now having added dozens of attributes manually.

It's at the bottom of 'option names' if it's of any use to anyone else.
