How Do I Create an Attribute Size in WooCommerce?

Last updated on January 17, 2023 @ 5:10 pm

There are two ways to create an Attribute Size in WooCommerce:

1. Using the WooCommerce Attribute Size

To use the WooCommerce Attribute Size, you need to first add the following code to your theme’s functions.php file:

$args = array(
'label' => 'Size',
'name' => 'size',
'type' => 'select',
'options' => array(
'small' => 'Small',
'medium' => 'Medium',
'large' => 'Large',
)
);
register_taxonomy( 'pa_size', 'product', $args );

This code will create an attribute called “Size” with three options: Small, Medium, and Large. The attribute will be of type “select”, meaning that customers can choose one option from a dropdown menu.

2. Using the WooCommerce Product Add-Ons Extension

Another way to create an attribute size in WooCommerce is by using the WooCommerce Product Add-Ons extension. This extension allows you to add custom fields to your products, including text fields, select fields, and checkboxes. To use this method, you will need to purchase and install the WooCommerce Product Add-Ons extension from the official WooCommerce website. Once installed, you can go to the Product Add-Ons settings page and create a new attribute called “Size” with the options you want.

Both of these methods will allow you to create an attribute size in WooCommerce, but the second method gives you more flexibility and options for customizing your attributes.

PRO TIP: Remember to keep your attribute names and options consistent throughout your store. This will make it easier for customers to find and filter products, and will also ensure that your product data is organized and easy to manage.
