Product Options

Product options let you set up options with different prices for a single product.

For example, a T-shirt can have product options based on size (S, M, L, XL) or a print can have product options based on sizes (12×12, 20×20, 30×30 inches). Each option/variant can have a different price if required.

Product options can be created when you create a product or edit any existing product.

Note:

The maximum number of images and variants that can be added to a product is 200

The options you just created will show up as dropdown/radio buttons/tabs on the product page.

Visitors can select the option they want to buy from the available options. The selected option price will be applied to the product and shown to your customer.
