Let me try to explain. As i understand it you have to add all options to a product at once because if you add them one at a time only the first one will show on the product page.
Example
So I added Colour and generated, Then I added edge and generated
When you look at the store only the colour is showing
But, how the combinations show in the back end is what I would expect them to look like. I can add a price to lets say Edge Black. easy right....
So we have established that if you add a combo and generate it, and then add another combo and generate it only the first one shows on the product page.
So lets add them all at once and see what happens. In total I should see 17 combinations in the back admin section as per example.
But no. When I click generate I get 100s of them. I can't actually grab them in a screen shot as there are to many but here is a sample.
All that looks crap because how the hell am I supposed to maintain this. Which one do I select to add a price to when a customer selected it. The product page on the website looks fine.
Surely someone else has come across this. Its stupid the way this works
