How Do I Set Attributes in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 3:47 pm

If you’re just getting started with WooCommerce, you may be wondering how to set attributes for your products. Attributes are important for specifying product variations, like size, color, or material. In this article, we’ll show you how to set attributes in WooCommerce.

First, you’ll need to go to the Products tab in your WordPress admin sidebar and select Attributes from the drop-down menu.

On the next screen, you’ll see a list of all the attributes that have been created for your products. If you don’t see the attribute you want to add, you can click the Add New button at the top of the page.

Now, you’ll need to enter a name and slug for your attribute. The name is what will be shown to customers on your product pages, while the slug is used internally by WooCommerce. Once you’ve entered that information, click the Save button.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that setting attributes in WooCommerce can be a complex process, and may not be suitable for all users. If you are not comfortable with editing code or working with WooCommerce hooks, we recommend that you seek help from a WooCommerce expert.

Next, you’ll need to add values for your attribute. For example, if you’re creating an attribute for color, you might enter values like “red,” “blue,” or “green.”

To add a new value, simply enter it in the text field and click the Add button. Repeat this process for each value you want to add.

Once you’ve added all of your values, click the Save button again. Your attribute is now ready to be used on products!

When editing a product, scroll down to the Product Data section and click on theAttributes tab. From here, you can select which attributes should be applied to the product from the drop-down menus. Be sure to click the Save button when you’re done!

That’s all there is to setting attributes in WooCommerce! By following these steps, you can easily add variationsto your products and make them more appealing to customers.
