I want to echo a string in my price.html and im using this if statement
<?php if($_product->getData('bogof')==1){
echo 'test';} ?>
but it doesn't print anything i know the IF statement works as i use it in other places on my website. This is the context i am trying to use it in.
<?php $this->setProduct(
Mage::getModel("catalog/product")->getCollection()
->addAttributeToSelect(Mage::getSingleton("catalog/config")->getProductAttributes())
->addAttributeToFilter("entity_id", $this->getProduct()->getId())
->setPage(1, 1)
->addMinimalPrice()
->addFinalPrice()
->addTaxPercents()
->load()
->getFirstItem()
);?>
<?php
$_coreHelper = $this->helper('core');
$_weeeHelper = $this->helper('weee');
$_taxHelper = $this->helper('tax');
/* @var $_coreHelper Mage_Core_Helper_Data */
/* @var $_weeeHelper Mage_Weee_Helper_Data */
/* @var $_taxHelper Mage_Tax_Helper_Data */
$_product = $this->getProduct();
$_storeId = $_product->getStoreId();
$_store = $_product->getStore();
$_id = $_product->getId();
$_weeeSeparator = '';
$_simplePricesTax = ($_taxHelper->displayPriceIncludingTax() || $_taxHelper->displayBothPrices());
$_minimalPriceValue = $_product->getMinimalPrice();
$_minimalPriceValue = $_store->roundPrice($_store->convertPrice($_minimalPriceValue));
$_minimalPrice = $_taxHelper->getPrice($_product, $_minimalPriceValue);
$_convertedFinalPrice = $_store->roundPrice($_store->convertPrice($_product->getFinalPrice()));
$_specialPriceStoreLabel = $this->getProductAttribute('special_price')->getStoreLabel();
?>
<span class="price-excluding-tax" >
<span class="price" id="price-excluding-tax-<?php echo $_id ?><?php echo $this->getIdSuffix() ?>">
<?php if ($_finalPrice == $_price): ?>
<?php echo $_coreHelper->formatPrice($_price, false) ?>
<?php else: ?>
<?php echo $_coreHelper->formatPrice($_finalPrice, false) ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</span>
<?php if($_product->getData('bogof')==1){
echo 'test';} ?>
<span class="label"><?php echo $this->helper('tax')->__('Excl. VAT') ?></span>
</span>
Basically if the product has an attribute bogof and it is set to treu then it needs to print out test. But it isnt working and i am not sure why as it works in other files throughout my website.
When i add $test = Mage::getSingleton("catalog/config")->getProductAttributes();
then var_dump $test it returns
array(31) { [0]=> string(4) "name" [1]=> string(5) "price" [2]=> string(11) "small_image" [3]=> string(6) "status" [4]=> string(12) "tax_class_id" [5]=> string(7) "url_key" [6]=> string(9) "thumbnail" [7]=> string(17) "short_description" [8]=> string(13) "special_price" [9]=> string(17) "special_from_date" [10]=> string(15) "special_to_date" [11]=> string(14) "news_from_date" [12]=> string(12) "news_to_date" [13]=> string(16) "required_options" [14]=> string(10) "price_type" [15]=> string(11) "weight_type" [16]=> string(10) "price_view" [17]=> string(13) "shipment_type" [18]=> string(11) "image_label" [19]=> string(17) "small_image_label" [20]=> string(15) "thumbnail_label" [21]=> string(26) "links_purchased_separately" [22]=> string(11) "links_exist" [23]=> string(11) "is_imported" [24]=> string(12) "msrp_enabled" [25]=> string(30) "msrp_display_actual_price_type" [26]=> string(4) "msrp" [27]=> string(21) "c2c_paper_roll_holder" [28]=> string(10) "short_name" [29]=> string(15) "c2c_foot_switch" [30]=> string(9) "split_leg" }
And i have been told i need to add the bogog attribute to this array but i dont know how to that?

You need to make sure the call to the
addAttributeToSelect()
method against the product collection is adding your attribute.or even just use
*
to select all attributes (although you may not want to do this in practice dependant on the number of attributes you have):I would suggest looking at what is returned from
Mage::getSingleton("catalog/config")->getProductAttributes()
to make surebogof
isn't already included and if it isn't you can likely just add it in. This will make the attribute data available to the product loaded from the collection.
