I use filters as attributes for my products. I don't use OC attributes, but I need them in order to list similarities and differences on the product comparison page.

Is there an easy way to automatically create new attributes every time I make a new filter? Like, a way to sync the two? It's too meticulous to manually enter both filters and attributes, and I have nearly 200 products I'm working with. Is there perhaps an extension to help with this?

There may be more you will have to search the marketplace
Speak to Jonathan, you might have set it up the opposite way for this to work, but he is a good place to start.

This would be great, but you see my attributes table is empty. I'd still have to input all the attributes in order to use an extension like this to create filters with them. Basically I want something that will let me copy the values from my filter tables in the database to the attribute tables. I want to take all the filters I already have set up and convert them into attributes and attribute groups.

Yes - so as I said a good place to start would be to contact Jonathan.

You can always transfer all the data over yourself, or request commercial support.
