# Customization Component
Open your Character Blueprint, click the **Add** button to add a new component, then search for and select **BP\_CustomizationComponent**.
In the **Components** of your Character Blueprint, select the specific component (such as a Skeletal Mesh, Static Mesh, or Groom Asset) you want to make customizable. Go to **Details** ➞ **Tags** and add a new entry to **Component Tags**.
{% hint style="warning" %}
When tagging your components, you must use the required **Slot\_** prefix followed by a unique **Name** for that slot (e.g., Slot\_Mesh, Slot\_Legs, Slot\_Hairstyle).
{% endhint %}
Repeat this for each component you want to customize.
That being said, if you prefer a different naming convention, you can easily modify the required prefix. Select **BP\_CustomizationComponent**, then go to **Details** ➞ **Customization Component** ➞ **Component Tag Prefix** and type your desired prefix into the field, ensuring it ends with an underscore to act as a delimiter (e.g., Customizable\_).
Components that use the prefix are identified by the Customization Component. At runtime, the prefix is automatically stripped, leaving the remaining name to serve as the Slot's internal identifier.
#### Summary of Workflow
* **Add** the component to your Character.
* **Tag** each mesh or groom with **Slot\_** + **Name**.
* **Match** these names in your UI widgets (like the **Slot Name** array in [WBP\_GenericButton](https://conusyntax.gitbook.io/products/integration/pages/XHAmUzIMt5NsLflbPT3W#id-3.-setup-in-the-designer)) to create a functional link.
#### Quick Check
If a button in your UI isn't updating the Character, verify that the **Slot Name** you typed in the UI widget (e.g., Torso) exactly matches the name you added after the prefix in the **Component Tags** (e.g., Slot\_Torso).
