Translating Attribute Names


You can translate the name of an attribute, so it is displayed to end users in their own language, in the following ways:

  • You can translate the attribute name at the Product Classes level, so all products in the class inherit the translation of the attribute name.
  • You can translate the attribute name at the Product level, so the translation applies only to that product.

  3. Click the Class Attributes view tab.
