    Adding attributes to existing templates?

    I created an attribute template with 8 colors as selections in a drop down menu. I then copied this attribute to over 100 products without realizing that i forgot one color. I added the missing color to the template but it is not transferring to the products attributes. Is there a way that i can apply this missing color to all of these products at once?

    How did you assign the template? If you did it as a copy, that's the problem. However, if you're using Emporium Plus' attribute & option import module, it's pretty easy to just bulk import that one option.

        I think in your situation you want to link the template, rather than copy, to each of the products. That is if the options are identical on each of those products.

          Im in attributes under a product but I dont see any place to link a template. All i see is copy and add a whole new attribute.

            Really? Here's a screen grab of what I'm talking about.
            Go to: product you want to edit > Attributes tab > Add Template button > select template from drop down > Link button becomes active
