Hello, Nuno was using the default options, not a third-party.
With that said, we gave him a solution that will work for him using the default options. He was unfamiliar with the difference between global attributes for standardized options to be used with many products and individual options that can be set up one to one with the product options tab.
His concern was if he had a global called length, if he added a stand-alone option called length it would affect all of them. That is not how options work. Admin needs to add any option either global or stand-alone to each Product option tab - and if affects only that product.
Perhaps this will assist other admins to understand how the options work within the default coding.
Cheers to all
