 * Hi there,
 * I’m new to woo commerce and didn’t find anything in the documentation on how 
   to add additional properties/attributes to a product. I’m trying to setup a book
   store and I can’t find a way of adding default fields (such as adding author 
   information for each product added) to be entered and displayed when viewing 
   a product. Would this be added as a custom field, to product data or something
   similar?
 * Thanks.

 * do you not see the “attributes” tab when adding/editing the products?
    if you
   want to add terms to the attributes or create more attributes, that’s under products
   >attributes.

 * Thank you. I tried that before but was obviously doing something very wrong.
