Custom attributes on catalog page?

    I’d like to add a custom attribute text to each product on the catalog page (a tagline), and as I understand it, I need to use the following php below:

    <?php echo $_product->get_attribute( 'tagline' );?>

    (tagline being the name of the attribute I’ve set)

    However, this produces an error, presumably because not all products have this attribute set.

    So I’m guessing that I need to add some additional code to check whether the given attribute is available, before the php above.

    Any pointers on how to to do this?

    Yes the product class has a method called “has_attributes” which you can use.

    Ah thanks, sounds good – any pointers on the php for this (my php skills are very limited)?

    has_attributes method returns a boolean true or false…So if your new class is called $_product assuming you used the abstract method of $_product = get_product( $id ); then your code would look something like this:

    if ( $_product->has_attributes() ) {
     echo $_product->get_attribute( 'tagline' );
}
