parent/child photos
New to variations and trying to make the switch from customizations. I feel like I'm seeing conflicting info on photos - do you add photos to Parent listing which apply to all child listings? Or do you add all photos to Child listings individually? Basically - do Parent listings have photos at all??

You will be required to place one main image on the Parent listing. I do not believe this shows up to the customer, just requires one photo. The Child listings should hold your photos that show to the customer.
Many of the non-photo fields entered in the parent listing do override the fields on the child listings.

Hi @ClementineSea,
Thanks for the post. Looks like @Cactus and @MeloPrints provided you with some good nuggets of advice.
The Seller University video "Create product variations one at a time" provides a quick overview of managing variations and updating images. Let me know if this helps you move forward.
There are a few other variation articles that may be useful as you get started:
Elements of a parent-child relationship

How variations appear on product detail pages

Updated attributes within the Add a Product interface
Best regards,
