On the product view page, we're displaying a dropdown of products that are available to the customer as a free gift for that particular product.
We're loading the collection so we can get these products using:-
<?php $productGift = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($giftId); ?>
This is currently displaying the product name which we can get by:-
<?php echo $productGift->getName()?>
We've created a custom attribute to use instead of the product name, so we want to display this in the dropdown instead of the product name but we're unable to use _$item or $_product, it's not a custom attribute of the current product, it needs to get the custom attribute from all the products loaded by Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($giftId);
.
I'm unsure how to fetch this data.
It would be something like:-
<select id="select_28" class="product-custom-option" title="" name="freeGiftId">
<option value=""><?php echo $this->__('-- Please Select --')?></option>
<?php foreach($freeGifts as $giftId): ?>
<?php $productGift = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($giftId); ?>
<option value="<?php echo $productGift->getId()?>">
<?php if ($productGift->getAttributeText('free_eliquid_product_name'); ?>
<?php echo $productGift->getAttributeText('free_eliquid_product_name');?>
<?php else: ?>
<?php echo $productGift->getName()?>
</option>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</select>
(If free gift product has custom attribute set then display this otherwise display the product name). How can I get the custom attribute from $productGift
? Thanks.
I've tried this...
<?php if ($productGift->getXyz()): ?>
<?php echo $productGift->getXyz()?>
<?php else: ?>
<?php echo $productGift->getName()?>
Should this be working? Because it doesn't...
