🎛 Using Attributes and Variations

Variable products in Botoscope allow customers to choose between different product options before placing an order — like size, color, volume, etc. To set this up, Botoscope uses a system of attributes and variations.

📌 What Are Attributes?

Attributes are characteristics of a product — such as “Size“, “Color“, “Material“.

Note: Attributes are only used for variable products. They do not apply to simple products.

🧩 Preparing Attributes

1. Go to Taxonomies → Attributes.
2. Create attribute groups (e.g. “Size“, “Color“).
3. Inside each group, add the actual terms (e.g. “S“, “M“, “L“, or “Red“, “Blue“).

🛍 Setting Up a Variable Product

1. Create or edit a product.
2. Set the Product Type to Variable.
3. The “Attributes” drop-down will appear:
   • Select only the attributes that are relevant to this product.
   • Do not select all attributes — unnecessary ones will be shown in the bot interface.
4. After selecting attributes, choose the relevant terms (values) that apply.
5. Click Save to confirm.

🌀 Creating Variations

Once attributes are saved, the “Variations” button will become available. You have two options:

• 🔧 Manually add each variation
• ⚙️ Generate all possible combinations

Each variation can have:

• 💵 Its own price and sale price
• ✏️ Description (optional)
• ✅ In stock / out of stock status

🔢 Ordering and Display

Inside the “Attributes” tab you can:

• Reorder the attributes using drag-and-drop
• Use arrows to define which one shows first in Telegram

🎛 How It Looks in Telegram

• Attribute selectors appear as buttons or sliders in the bot
• If an attribute has multiple values — it’s shown as a slider (left/right) if selected
• If an attribute has only one value — it will appear as a single selected button

Examples:

• “Size” with S, M, L → slider
• “Color” with only “Red” → single button
