Then, in the action part, select add characteristics and set it up as you want. Thus, every time you create a new product in this category, the characteristics will be added to the this product ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzM3LWltcG9ydC1leHBvcnQtY3N2LXhscy84NjYwMDktaXMtaXQtcG9zc2libGUtYXBwbHktY2hhcmFjdGVyaXN0aWNzLXRvLWNhdGVnb3JpZXM/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation.
