These are broken down into tabs on the left hand side of the main product page. One of these tabs, the <em>Features<\/em> tab, is where you will enter the different important selling points and\/or specifications for your item.<\/p>\n<h3>What are Features?<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"\/support\/images\/stories\/edu\/ps16\/products\/features\/features1.png\" rel=\"lightbox-0\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"std_ss\" style=\"float: right; margin: 0px 0px 15px 15px;\" title=\"Click here to view the larger image\" src=\"\/support\/images\/stories\/edu\/ps16\/products\/features\/features1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<p>Features are specific attributes of your product. This may be a size, such as the height and width of a TV, or it may be a type of material a shirt is made of, such as cotton. These features are displayed at the bottom of the product\u2019s main page under the term <em>Data Sheet<\/em>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<h2>Pre-defined Values vs Customized Values<\/h2>\n<p>When adding features to your products, you have a choice between selecting from a list of pre-defined values or to add custom values.<\/p>\n<h3>Pre-defined Values<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"\/support\/images\/stories\/edu\/ps16\/products\/features\/2-predefined1.png\" rel=\"lightbox-0\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"std_ss\" style=\"float: right; margin: 0px 0px 15px 15px;\" title=\"Click here to view the larger image\" src=\"\/support\/images\/stories\/edu\/ps16\/products\/features\/2-predefined1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<p>The left-hand side of the <em>Features<\/em> tab contains the predefined lists. These are dropdowns that contain values you can select. For instance, in the <em>Compositions<\/em> dropdown you will see selections like <em>Cotton<\/em> and<em>Leather<\/em>. If your product is made of one of these products, then select it from the list so it displays on the product\u2019s <em>Data Sheet<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>If a feature has been created but no default values were given, there will be a link that says <em>Add Pre-defined Values First<\/em>. By default, the features <em>Weight<\/em>, <em>Height<\/em>, <em>Depth<\/em>, and <em>Width<\/em> appear but have no values to select from. This also occurs when you create a new feature but have yet to create values to choose from. You will either need to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/prestashop\/add-attribute-values\/\">add values for the feature<\/a> by clicking on the <strong>Add Pre-defined Values First<\/strong> or add a custom value for the features.<\/p>\n<h3>Customized Values<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"\/support\/images\/stories\/edu\/ps16\/products\/features\/3-customized-values1.png\" rel=\"lightbox-0\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"std_ss\" style=\"float: right; margin: 0px 0px 15px 15px;\" title=\"Click here to view the larger image\" src=\"\/support\/images\/stories\/edu\/ps16\/products\/features\/3-customized-values1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<p>Customized value fields are displayed on the right hand side of the <em>Features<\/em> tab. This is helpful if you need to give a value to a feature that either has no pre-defined values listed or if the value you need is not in the pre-defined listing. For example, if you have a list of materials under <em>Composition<\/em> that mostly include clothing materials such as leather, cotton, and polyester, but you include a table that is made of oak, you can simply set the customized value field to \u2018<em>Oak<\/em>\u2018.<\/p>\n<h2>How to assign features to a product<\/h2>\n<p>Getting to the tab is relatively simple.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"article_list\">\n<li>First, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/prestashop\/login-prestashop-dashboard\/\">log into your PrestaShop admin area<\/a>.\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>From the admin dashboard, click on the <strong>Catalog<\/strong> link on the left hand menu, followed by the <strong>Products<\/strong> option.\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>Now, from the main <em>Product<\/em> list page, find the product with which you want to manage features and click on the <strong>Edit<\/strong> button. This is found on the far right side of the product row.\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>This brings up the product details section. The <em>Information<\/em> tab is one shown by default. Look to the left side menu and select the <strong>Features<\/strong> tab.\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>Enter your features either by selecting values from the <em>Pre-defined<\/em> listings or by adding your own <em>Customized Values<\/em>.\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>Once entered, click on one of the <strong>Save<\/strong> buttons to activate your changes.\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a href=\"\/support\/images\/stories\/edu\/ps16\/products\/features\/after1.png\" rel=\"lightbox-0\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"std_ss\" style=\"float: right; margin: 0px 0px 15px 15px;\" title=\"Click here to view the larger image\" src=\"\/support\/images\/stories\/edu\/ps16\/products\/features\/after1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<p>Once you have saved your features, you can then visit your storefront.
