I figured this out.
How do I force the customer to make a choice? I used select box when I set it up, should I have used a different option?
I followed the doc for creating a global attribute. That went fine until I tried to add it into the product template. It doesn't show up. I don't want to use the "size, color&size, fragrance type or gift wrapping parent. I created "Grinding Preference" (See the attachment.) Mine came out with Download attribute???
I went back and created the option in Product Options because I have more than a hundred products to add this to. See the second attachment. Do I have to select an Attribute Parent for this to work? None fit my need. Can I make one for Grinding Preferences for my coffee instead of size and color?
The third screen shot is what I'm ending up with... I have four when there should only be one.
Help. Thanks
