Where do I add this snippet of code to display on product page? I’ve found numerous posts on other sites saying go to:

/app/design/frontend/default/default/template/catalog/product/view.phtml

But when I look at my server via FTP, I don’t have any other folders after template in that breadcrumb.

Any suggestions? I’m using 1.6 CE

Thanks!

Thanks Vishal. It works fine. catalog/output – to catalog/product do the trick…

solution of call custom attribute

function getAttr($product_id, $attributeName) {
$product = Mage::getModel(‘catalog/product’)->load($product_id);
$attributes = $product->getAttributes();
$attributeValue = null;
if(array_key_exists($attributeName , $attributes)){
$attributesobj = $attributes["{$attributeName}"];
$attributeValue = $attributesobj->getFrontend()->getValue($product);

}
return $attributeValue;

}

this wasn’t working for me until I removed the ‘quotes’ around shirt_size. If you’re having trouble with this in magento 1.4+, that may be your issue.

The attribute label doesn’t get translated when changing the store’s language.
It’s interesting because the same attribute gets translated in the more info tab

any ideas on how to solve this?

Some times like in grouped.phtml you have to do it like this
htmlEscape($_item->getAttributeText(‘contenance’)); ?>

Hi Josh, I did notice the line to load the product in view.phtml, so I allready tried putting that line in the head.phtml but that didn’t work either.

So I just tested the Mage::registry(‘current_product’)->getData(‘attribute_code’) code and that worked great, thanks again for that one!

Now I can put my own specified canonical link to the products pages.
