Custom Product Options
The Custom Product Options feature allows suppliers to add flexible configuration choices to their products in the Exhibitor Shop. This is useful when a product has variations (such as power source, size, colour, or add-ons) and exhibitors need to select the option that best suits their needs.
What are Custom Product Options?
Custom Product Options let you create a set of product variations that exhibitors can choose from when ordering. For example:
-
A stand light may have options for LED or Halogen.
-
A power supply may have options for 12V Battery or 24V Battery.
-
A display panel may come in Red, Blue, or Green.
Each option can also include price adjustments, quantities, and images to make ordering clearer.
Step 1: Create Custom Product Options
-
Go to the Custom Product Options (CPO) tab in your Supplier menu.
-
Click Add New to create your first option.
-
If none exist yet, you’ll see: “No Custom Product Options yet. Click Add New to create your first Custom Product Option.”
-
-
Enter a Title for the option (e.g. Power Source).
-
Add one or more Options under that title:
-
Option Name (e.g. 12V Battery).
-
Option ID (optional) – this can be used to track specific variations in your orders.
-
-
Click Add to add each option to the list.
-
Once you’re happy, click Save.
.
Step 2: Configure Product Options
Once you’ve created your CPOs, you can assign them to your products:
-
Open your Products list and click into a product.
-
Scroll to the Custom Product Options block in the product drawer.
-
Toggle Enable Custom Product Options to activate.
-
Disabled = product shows in its default state.
-
Enabled = product shows with your configured options.
-
-
Click Add Configuration.
-
In the configuration modal:
-
Choose the option(s) you want to make available.
-
Set Quantity (required).
-
Add a Price Uplift if the option increases the cost.
-
Attach images (optional) to help exhibitors visualise the option.
-
-
Save your configuration.
You can create multiple configurations for one product.
How it looks to exhibitors
When exhibitors open your product in the shop:
-
They’ll see your configured options (e.g. colour choices, power sources).
-
They select the one they want before adding the product to their order.
-
Any price uplifts or quantity limits are automatically applied.
-
If only one option exists, it will be preselected by default.
Managing configurations
-
Edit: Update details and save changes.
-
Disable: Hide an option from the shop without deleting it.
-
Remove: Permanently delete an option (confirmation required).
-
Reorder: Adjust the sequence of options as they appear to exhibitors.
-
Duplicates: The system prevents saving an identical configuration twice.
