You can create them via the menu Display->Custom fields. Make sure that they are of the table "item". The only drawback of using custom fields is that you can't change the price of the product based on the selection of the user, but you didn't mention that in your question so maybe you don't need it ?

You can find documentation on that here: [ www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...tation.html#override](http://www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentation/62-hikashop-developer-documentation.html#override) And an example here: demo.hikashop.com/index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=product&task=show&cid=214 Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzc2ODI1LWVuYWJsZS12YXJpYW50cy1hZnRlci1zZWxlY3RpbmctYW4tb3B0aW9uP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation.
