texte = What is the best way to handle a product that has different sizes, colors or other variation? I'm surprised to find that the GeneralStore model doesn't have any provision for this (or have I missed it?), so I'm trying to figure out how to handle it without an example.I have some general categories of products with a number of products in each category (so far this fits the GeneralStore model fine) but I also have various sizes of each product. I'd prefer to have a drop-down menu on the product detail page to select the product variation which gets put in the shopping cart. Each variation has it's own SKU but the same name, description, photo and price as all the other variations.Thanks in advance. Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
