Add website/store name to manage attributes options/labels page

Question

We have a multistore system with several websites and storeviews in different languages.

The storeview name (from Manage Stores) is used for language switcher label and also for manage attributes section.

Since we dont want to use any "fake names" our store names are not unique and manage attributes page looks like:

So our product management does not know which column belongs to which store/website.

Any ideas how to solve it?

Answer 1

You could use something like below to get the website name and echo this under the store view to determine which site is which. The section that would need modifying is on line 53 of the options.phtml which could be overridden in a custom admin theme. Original file:

app/design/adminhtml/default/default/template/eav/attribute/options.phtml

Modify the for each loop for store views to include website name like below:

<?php foreach ($this->getStores() as $_store): ?>
    <th><?php echo $_store->getName();  ?>
    <?php $website = Mage::getModel('core/website')->load($_store->getWebsiteId()); ?>
    <?php echo $website->getName(); ?>
    </th>
<?php endforeach; ?>

This is assuming that website names are different however you could use the website id's instead to determine which is which also.
