Assign attributes to a category

  • Updated

Attributes are assigned to categories of products that may share similar properties across all products. For example, a category of Goggles may share Attributes such as Lens Type, Size, and Gender. To assign attributes to a category, follow the steps below:

  1. Go to Admin Console > Catalog > Categories.
  2. Click the Edit icon beside the category. You may need to expand the parent category to show the child categories if needed.

  4. Click Add Category Attribute.
  5. Select the Attribute Type from the drop-down list or search for an attribute name.
  6. Ensure the Active toggle state displays Yes. If set to No, it does not show anywhere on the site as a filter.
  7. Enter the appropriate Sort Order number.
  8. Click Save.

Child categories do not inherit the attributes of a parent category. You must assign the attributes directly.
