(vi) Related: Related Products is a section of certain formats that pull products from your store that share the same tags or categories as the current product.

For example, if the user is viewing the coffee product listing page, you may want to display tea kettles on that same page as an up-sell. To Create an Upsell Product Slider follow the steps given below:

- Go to WooCommerce > Products and select the product on which you’d like to show an up-sell or cross-sell.

To set an SKU value First click Edit or Add a New product then scroll down and you will find an option named Inventory, click and put an SKU value as you want.
(xv) Attribute: Attributes add extra data to your WooCommerce products.
Attributes are also useful for searching and filtering products. If you give attributes to products, users can filter using them. Often this filtering is done by WooCommerce widgets that allow users to filter products. Attributes are confused with Variations but they are different. Variations are not for searching or filtering. Variations allow users to choose different options for a product. This means you can sell a T-Shirt in different sizes and colors. Part of the confusion is that Attributes and Variations often rely on each other to work effectively. For example, variations are based on attributes. Creating attributes is an essential first step before creating variations. To create and set the attribute to your product follow the instructions:
- Go to “Products” and then “Attributes” from your left sidebar menu.
- Fill the fields (Name, slug, Type, Default Sort Order).
- Select a product to edit or Add New Product.
- Scroll down to the Product Data section.
- Click Attributes.
- Click Add.
- Name your Attribute and add your values. Make sure to separate each value with a pipe (|). For Example Small | Medium | Large.
