Im trying to get a series of attributes to show if an attribute value is set to yes.

Here is my code but it is not working:

 <?php if($_product->getAttributeText("vm_activate")== 1) ?>
        <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware SKU: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmwareSku() ?></div>
        <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware Type: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmware() ?></div>
        <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware Price: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmwarePrice() ?></div>
    <?php endif; ?>

Reset to default

After some tinkering this worked:

<?php if ($_product->getAttributeText('vm_activate') == "Yes"): ?>
    <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware SKU: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmwareSku() ?></div>
    <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware Type: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmware() ?></div>
    <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware Price: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmwarePrice() ?></div>
<?php endif ?>

You can use :

<?php $attribute = $_product->getAttributeText("vm_activate"); ?> //return true of false, 0 or 1
<?php if($attribute) : ?> // if is true or 1
    <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware SKU: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmwareSku() ?></div>
    <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware Type: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmware() ?></div>
    <div class="product-sku"><span><?php echo $this->__('VMware Price: ') ?></span><?php echo $_product->getVmwarePrice() ?></div>
<?php endif; ?>

  • This works. However its pulling the db id and not the attribute value. Do I need to call something. additional to the page?

  • Normally it should work with getAttributeTest(), try this : ` $value = $product->getResource()->getAttribute($attribute_code)->getFrontend()->getValue($product);`

  • It does not. The code on the second comment kills the whole thing. Also, I'm trying to hide the whole section id its set to no.

  • I don't know but it works for me getAttributeText("vm_activate"), try this one $prod = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($productId); $attribute = $prod->getResource()->getAttribute('vm_activate')->getFrontend()->getValue($prod); echo $attribute; otherwise i have no idea.
