Every time I add a product, I must go to the other products and add that new product in the Related Product section. Is there a way for the new product to be added automatically to the other related products?

Just create a new mass action (System>mass action) of type product, choose a trigger like "onAfterProductCreate". Add a filter to select only the product in your category and finally add an action to move the product to your related product section. I hope it helped ![;)](/media/kunena/emoticons/11.png ";)") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzg1Mzk2LXVwZGF0aW5nLWFsbC1yZWxhdGVkLXByb2N1Y3RzLXdoZW4tbmV3LXByb2R1Y3QtYWRkP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[Duchesne](/forum/user/13177-duchesne "View Duchesne's Profile")** - [![Duchesne's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/13177-duchesne "View Duchesne's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/13177-duchesne) Less More - Posts: 32 - Thank you received: 1 - - 13 years 3 months ago [\#114299](#114299) by [Duchesne](/forum/user/13177-duchesne "View Duchesne's Profile") Replied by *[Duchesne](/forum/user/13177-duchesne "View Duchesne's Profile")* on topic *[Updating all related procucts when new product add](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/85396-updating-all-related-procucts-when-new-product-add#114299 "Can anyone tell me how can all the products of a certain category be updated in the Related Product section when a new product is added.

Would you mind giving me the exact step by step procedure? I don't know if you can be more explicit than what you've already given me, but anything more would be much appreciated. There is no documentation for mass action. I don't understand "Type Product" and "Trigger". I didn't see an area for type product. Is trigger the filter? Thanks again for your help. Please excuse my novice stature.

Trigger refer to the first part of the mass action, it means the action you defined will be executed every time you pass by the trigger. For example, with "after a product is created", the action defined will processed every time you create a product.
