Custom Field Populator: How to Create a New Custom Field

To create a new custom field in Custom Field Populator, from the Dashboard, click on Custom Fields:

You'll be taken to a screen showing all your store's custom fields:

Step 1: Click on Create

Step 2: Enter a name for your new custom field.

Step 3: Enter a default value for your new custom field. If you'd like to leave the default value blank, simply enter a space.

Step 4: Choose whether you want to have Custom Field Populator automatically add this new custom field to new items as they are created. If you choose to not enable this option, the custom field can be manually added to items one by one.

• If you want Custom Field Populator to automatically add custom fields to your new items, you must click Enable Auto Creating Custom Fields from the Custom Field Populator Dashboard.

Step 5: Choose what Custom Field Groups you want your new custom field to be included in. At least one custom field group is required.

Step 6: Choose whether to add the new custom field to all products in your BigCommerce store.

• If toggled to Yes, Custom Field Populator will go through and add this new custom field to all existing items in your store.
• If toggled to No, Custom Field Populator will not add this new custom field to all existing items in your store, but you can manually add them to items one by one.

Step 7: Click Save Custom Field to complete the setup.
