Sometimes it is necessary to change the product type(s) an attribute is applied to in Magento. A common example is, that you designed and implemented an attribute for a configurable product, because you thought its real world value is equal over all child manifestations. But after a while you realize, that there are differences that you […]
This code snippet shows how to change attribute scope in a setup script:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 |
<?php /* @var $oInstaller Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Setup */ $oInstaller = $this; $oInstaller->startSetup(); $oInstaller->updateAttribute( 'catalog_product', 'abc_attribute', 'is_global', Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Eav_Attribute::SCOPE_STORE ); $oInstaller->updateAttribute( 'catalog_product', 'xyz_attribute', 'is_global', Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Eav_Attribute::SCOPE_STORE ); $oInstaller->endSetup(); // mark index as "reindex required" $aIndexerCodes = [ 'catalog_product_attribute', 'catalog_product_flat', 'catalogsearch_fulltext' ]; $oIndexer = Mage::getModel('index/process'); foreach ($aIndexerCodes as $sCode) { $oIndexer->load($sCode, 'indexer_code') ->changeStatus(Mage_Index_Model_Process::STATUS_REQUIRE_REINDEX); } //clear EAV Cache: $oInstaller->cleanCache(); |
And the config.xml:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 |
<?xml version="1.0"?> <config> <modules> <Sheldon_Catalog> <version>0.1.0</version> </Sheldon_Catalog> </modules> <global> <resources> <sheldon_catalog_setup> <setup> <module>Sheldon_Catalog</module> <class>Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Setup</class> </setup> </sheldon_catalog_setup> </resources> </global> </config> |
You can do this as shown in the following example:

<?php /* @var $installer Mage_Core_Model_Resource_Setup */ $oInstaller = $this; $oInstaller->startSetup(); $oCmsBlocks = [ [ 'title' => 'Footer bar for benefits', 'identifier' => 'footer-bar', 'content' => <<<HTML <ul> <li>Shop Benefit 1</li> <li>Shop Benefit 2</li> <li>Shop Benefit 3</li> <li>Shop Benefit 4</li> <li>Customer Service (D): <a href="tel:08008828838" class="tel">0800 - 882 883 8</a> </li> </ul> HTML , 'is_active' => 1, 'stores' => 0 ], [ 'title' => 'Footer payment methods', 'identifier' => 'footer-left', 'content' => <<<HTML <p>Payment methods:</p> <ul class="img-list"> <li> <img src="{{skin url='images/payment/visa.png'}}" alt="Visa"></li> <li> <img src="{{skin url='images/payment/paypal.png'}}" alt="PayPal"></li> <li> <img src="{{skin url='images/payment/mastercard.png'}}" alt="MasterCard"></li> <li> <img src="{{skin url='images/payment/ec.png'}}" alt="EC"></li> </ul> HTML , 'is_active' => 1, 'stores' => 0 ], [ 'title' => 'Footer social media', 'identifier' => 'footer-right', 'content' => <<<HTML <p>Visit us on Facebook</p> <ul class="social-media"> <li> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/LAMYGermany" target="_blank"> <img class="social-media-logo" title="Facebook" alt="Facebook" src="{{skin url='images/social/facebook.svg'}}"> Facebook </a> </li> </ul> HTML , 'is_active' => 1, 'stores' => 0 ] ]; foreach ($aCmsBlocks as $aData) { /* @var Mage_Cms_Model_Block $oBlock */ $oBlock = Mage::getModel('cms/block')->load( $aData['identifier'], 'identifier' ); if ($oBlock->getId()) { $aData['block_id'] = $oBlock->getId(); $oBlock->setData($aData) ->save(); } else { Mage::getModel('cms/block')->setData($aData)->save(); } } $oInstaller->endSetup(); |
