On the product listing page, I would like a bullet point list within each product to show attribute name and value (for a particular group - "Specification) e.g.
Specification
- Fixing Centres: 120.6mm
- Size: 147.9mm x 87.4mm x 31mm
I have already added these attributes and assigned values to them within Magento. Using the code below (found and tweaked with a bit of searching here), I can also output an array containing the attribute name, however I can't seem to get the 'front end' version of the name and the value:
$setId = $_product->getAttributeSetId(); // Attribute set Id
$groups = Mage::getModel('eav/entity_attribute_group')
->getResourceCollection()
->setAttributeSetFilter($setId)
->setSortOrder()
->load();
$attributeCodes = array();
foreach ($groups as $group) {
if($group->getAttributeGroupName() == 'Specification'){ // set name
//$groupName = $group->getAttributeGroupName();
//$groupId = $group->getAttributeGroupId();
$attributes = Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/product_attribute_collection')
->setAttributeGroupFilter($group->getId())
->addVisibleFilter()
->checkConfigurableProducts()
->load();
if ($attributes->getSize() > 0) {
foreach ($attributes->getItems() as $attribute) {
/* @var $child Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Attribute */
$attributeCodes[] = $attribute->getAttributeCode();
}
}
}
}
print_r($attributeCodes);
The above outputs Array ( [0] => mounting_box_depth [1] => fixing_centres [2] => size )
To get the value, I tried
$attributeValue = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')
->load($_product->getId())
->getAttributeText(attributeCodes[0]);
But this doesn't seem to return anything at all. Any ideas?
