Attribute Input Types

When viewed from the Admin, attributes are the fields that you complete when you create a product. The attribute input type, in turn, determines the type of data that can be entered and the format of field or input control.

ScandiPWA theme supports all input types of attributes:

ATTRIBUTE TYPE	STATUS	DESCRIPTION
Text Field	SUPPORTED	A single line input field for text. E.g., Name attribute.
Text Area	SUPPORTED	A multiple-line input field for entering paragraphs of text. E.g., product description.
Text Editor	SUPPORTED	A fully-functioning text editor at the attribute location.
Date	COMING SOON	Date values can be entered by making a selection from a drop-down list or popup calendar ( ). The attribute type is not yet supported by the ScandiPWA theme on the fron-end, but you are welcome to use it for Magento back-end only.
Yes/No	SUPPORTED	Displays a drop-down list with pre-defined options of Yes and No.
Dropdown	SUPPORTED	Displays a drop-down list of values that accepts only a single selection. Dropdown swatches allow you to ender different text values. On the product description page attribute values are displayed in the dropdown list. In the layered navigation, attribute values are rendered vertically with checkboxes.
Multiple Select	SUPPORTED	Displays a drop-down list of values that accepts multiple selections.
Price	SUPPORTED	In Magento this input type is used to create price fields that are in addition to the predefined attributes: Price, Special Price, Tier Price, and Cost.
Media Image	SUPPORTED	Associates an additional image with a product, such as a product logo, care instructions, or ingredients from a food label. When you add a media image attribute to the attribute set of a product, it becomes an additional image type.
