How to add color and size variations to a product?

[Neil Aggarwal]

Hello:

I have added a product to my catalog and marked it as a virtual
product.

When I go to add the color and size selectable features, I go
the to features page.

Under Add Product Feature with Type and ID Code:
I selected Color, gave it an ID code of Color and
hit the add button.

The page reloads and seems to do nothing.  I don't get
an error message of any kind.

When I go to the Variants page, it tells me there are
no selectable features.

Any idea what went wrong?

Thanks,
        Neil

I'm not sure in your case, *but* do you understand how the caches work in ofBiz?
Are they in developer mode or production?
Did you clear your caches after updating and still see this behavior?

I tried clearing the caches and it did not
help.

Any other ideas why I cannot add a selectable
feature to a product?

Thanks,
        Neil

You need to:
1.  Make sure you have a product feature type of "Color"
2.  Then you add a product feature category of say "colours"
3.  Then click on edit on the product feature category and you can add your
features there.

Scott:

So, do I need to list all possible colors for all my
products in the Color feature type and then add the
individual ones that are specific to my product?

Thanks,
        Neil

That's right, you've got Feature Types and the Features under them, and then
those Features need to be applied to your products as necessary.
