Common Issues & Solutions

Template not applying to products

  • Check product selection: Verify products are selected before applying
  • Try single product: Test with one product first to isolate issues

Modifier conflict with existing options

  • Solution: Create a new template with all desired options including existing ones
  • Note: Templates replace modifiers completely, they don't merge
