Adding attributes to the Products fields

  1. Is it possible to create attributes to the Product fields? I need to build a registration form where the Attendees have the opportunity to register for Sessions and Workshops and Social Activities such as a Golf Tournament. I've listed some of the common attributes below.

    Sessions/Workshops:
    - Start Date / End Date
    - Start Time / End Time
    - Speaker Name
    - Location
    - Description text (HTML)
    - Image

    Social Activities
    - Start Date / End Date
    - Start Time / End Time
    - Description text (HTML)
    - Location
    - Image
    - Golf Club Rental Requirements (entered by the Attendee on the form)
    - Handicap Input field (entered by the Attendee on the form)
    - Booked Start Date / End Date
    - Booked Start Time / End Time
    - Weight (entered by the Attendee on the form)
    - Height (entered by the Attendee on the form)
    - Shirt/Jacket Size (entered by the Attendee on the form)

  2. You can show/hide fields using conditional logic. So if your product fields use a drop down or radio button you could then show/hide additional fields based on the product that is selected. Then just name them in such a way that you know what product they go with.

    You can make use of the Admin Label to name the fields so the names include the product they are for. The Admin Label is under the Advanced Tab when editing a field. The Admin Label is used in place of the Field Label when displaying the entry data to an admin.

  3. I've thought of that and it would work for some of the attributes but the Date & Time attributes is great for managing how many sessions, workshops or activities can be booked per day or time. The Attendees cannot overlap their bookings for the sessions, workshops or activities by time. Also, some of the events have a minimum or maximum number of sessions, workshops or activities that can be booked by the Attendee per day or time. It is also easier to sort and group the sessions, workshops or activities by date and time on the page.
