Category attributes

Depending on the category of the product created, fields may appear for you to complete in the Category attributes section. These fields are specifications you can add to your SKUs to give them characteristics.

Here's how to create your product specifications.

If you have created any required product fields, the product can only be activated after this specification has been completed.

If the product is not visible on your store after creating it, read the article Why is the product not visible on the website? to learn how to solve this problem.
