PhotoBiz ECommerce allows you to sell your products on your Website and Client Galleries for no commissions. Your products can have different options, for example, frame sizes, album cover types, or fine art prints with various size options. You can also charge additional fees for different sub-options. This guide will walk you through adding options and sub-options to products you're selling on your website and client galleries.

Log into your PhotoBiz account and click on ECOMMERCE in the left side menu.
STEP TWO
Mouse over the SELL ONLINE option at the top of your ECommerce control panel and click on PRODUCTS in the drop down menu that opens.
STEP THREE
Set up a new product OR click on an existing product if you're adding options to a product you've already created.
STEP FOUR
Click on the OPTIONS button in the list of product options in the product settings and then click on the NEW OPTION button to create your 1st product option.

The control panel will automatically create an "Untitled" category for you. Click the pencil icon to the left of "Untitled" to give your option a name and configure additional settings.
Enter the desired category name, and click "Save Changes" to apply the new name.
In the same area where you rename the category, you can also choose whether to display prices next to sub-options that have an additional charge and if you want to make an option required for clients. If you choose not to display the price, the total product price will automatically increase when the additional option is selected.

- REQUIRED: Whether or not this text field is required or not.
- LABEL: The label for the text field
- DESCRIPTION: The message or instructions for the text field.
