I use Magento and I need help to use in frontend the translation of an attribute label !
I use this on my marketplace.phtml to load the attribute label
<?php
$attribute = Mage::getModel('eav/config')->getAttribute('catalog_product', 'etat_verres');
$allOptions = $attribute->getSource()->getAllOptions(true, true);
foreach ($allOptions as $instance) { if($instance['label']) {
echo $instance['value'] // to show the value
echo $instance["label"] // to show the label
} }
?>
The problem is that Magento use Admin Value and not french value or english value.
Thanks in advance !
Sincerely yours,
John
Using the $this->__ is the core Magento helper which also contains the translation functionality, now assuming your module has extends the core Magento helper this will work. Now you can use a theme translate.csv file to translate your text.
<?php
$attribute = Mage::getModel('eav/config')->getAttribute('catalog_product', 'etat_verres');
$allOptions = $attribute->getSource()->getAllOptions(true, true);
foreach($allOptions as $instance)
{
if ($instance['label'])
{
echo $this->__($instance['value']) // to show the value
echo $this->__($instance["label"]) // to show the label
}
}
Also keep in mind, translating the "labels" should not be necessary as you can use the Magento admin store view translations within Catalog->Manage Attributes Select your attribute and manage attributes per store view, however, I'm not entirely sure of the context. While what I provided should work, having context will provide a better solution.

I would like to customize my template for Joomla 3.7 so that I can use the new feature of Joomla 3.7, Custom fields (com_fields), and display and format them via CSS in my template where I need to display them.
Can someone suggest me the PHP code I should use in the template to display field(s), some example please.
Thanks in advance.
For everyone getting late to the party. In case you want to use your custom form fields in a Module-Override (which really are the only way to modify j!-templates, so google 'joomla template override') you can use this handy snippet:
<?php
JLoader::register('FieldsHelper', JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_fields/helpers/fields.php');
$jcFields = FieldsHelper::getFields('com_content.article', $item, true);
$itemCustomFields = array();
foreach($jcFields as $field) {
$itemCustomFields[$field->name] = $field->rawvalue;
}
?>
Now you cna use your customfields like so: itemCustomFields['customFieldName1']
Haven't tested in article overrides. May soon, if so, this will get updated.
certainly not the right way to do it but I had the same need and I found a work around based on https://www.giudansky.com/news/12-coding/146-joomla-custom-fields
Copie default.php from /components/com_content/views/article/tmpl/default.php to
templates/YOUR_THEME/html/com_content/article/default.php
Add following code line 25 :
$myCustomFields = array();
foreach($this->item->jcfields as $field) {
$myCustomFields[$field->name] = $field->value;
}
$GLOBALS['myCustomFields'] = $myCustomFields;
Typically you put on a global var the content of fields attached to your article.
On your template page you can know retrieved value of your field.
just print_r($GLOBALS['myCustomFields']); to view the content of your array.
That will do the trick waiting for a better answer..
This is absolutely the wrong way to do this I think but I was tearing my hair out so i came up with this quick db query to return custom field values in the template. surely this violates some kind of joomla protocol?
obviously this assumes you can get $articleid into your template already which is the Current ID of your article.
I too am waiting on a better solution but hope this helps
$db =& JFactory::getDBO();
$sql = "select * from #__fields_values where `item_id` = $articleid";
$db->setQuery($sql);
$fieldslist = $db->loadObjectList();
echo $fieldslist[0]->value;
echo $fieldslist[1]->value;
echo $fieldslist[your field ID here]->value;
I found it was easiest to follow how com_fields does it in its rendering code. In Joomla!3.7+, you'll find it in [joomla_root]/components/com_fields/layouts/fields/render.php .
Here are the main parts you need to reproduce the formatting that Joomla has:
JLoader::register('FieldsHelper', JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_fields/helpers/fields.php');
<dl class="fields-container">
<?php foreach ($this->item->jcfields as $field) : ?>
<?php // If the value is empty do nothing ?>
<?php if (!isset($field->value) || $field->value == '') : ?>
<?php continue; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php $class = $field->params->get('render_class'); ?>
<dd class="field-entry <?php echo $class; ?>">
<?php echo FieldsHelper::render($context, 'field.render', array('field' => $field)); ?>
</dd>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</dl>
This loops through all available tags for the component or article. The nice thing about this method is it still applies the render classes you include with the fields.
Make sure to set Automatic Display to Do not automatically display on your fields; otherwise you will see them twice on your page view.
If you want to just target specific fields to show, you can use the name of the field to target it. (The label and value pair is underneath.) See the field Joomla docs for more info.
I implemented this small function to get specific custom field values:
function getCustomFieldValue($field_name, $article_id, $default_value = '') {
// Load custom field list
$fields = FieldsHelper::getFields('com_content.article', $article_id, true);
$field_ids = array_column($fields, 'id', 'name');
$model = JModelLegacy::getInstance('Field', 'FieldsModel', array('ignore_request' => true));
// Return the value if the field exists, otherwise the default
return array_key_exists($field_name, $field_ids)
? $model->getFieldValue($field_ids[$field_name] , $article_id)
: $default_value;
}
Usage:
$some_field_value = getCustomFieldValue('some-field-name', $some_article_id);
Optimization: I placed the function into a helper class, implemented the variables $fields, $field_ids and $model static and checked if they are already loaded to prevent redundant loading of the same data.
I want to disable the fields, name and last name, in edit profile Joomla, so that user can not modify them. How can I change this?
The best approach, but not the easiest, is to create an user plugin to override form with a onContentPrepareForm method :
public function onContentPrepareForm($form, $data){
if (!($form instanceof JForm)){
$this->_subject->setError('JERROR_NOT_A_FORM');
return false;
}
$form->setFieldAttribute('name', 'readonly', 'true');
$form->setFieldAttribute('lastname', 'readonly', 'true');
return true;
}
There is not a configuration setting to achieve this.
So the easiest approach is to create a template override for the users view.
In the administrator, open the menu Extensions-Templates-Templates, then select your template and choose "Create Overrides" in the top tab:
In the center column, choose com_users - profile and edit.php
The display is done with a loop, starting at line 59 (as of v. 3.6.5) you want to add code to identify the fields you wish to keep readonly, and simply set their readonly property.
This is the kind of code you would add starting at line 59:
<?php foreach ($fields as $field) : ?>
<?php
if ($field->name == 'jform[name]') {
$field->readonly = true;
}
?>
<?php // If the field is hidden, just display the input. ?>
The $field contains something like this:
We are identifying it by name (well by its field name), then setting its readonly property.
I am new to magento, I have created an attribute language from the magento back-end.
By following this. Customer > Attributes Manager
Attribute has an input type dropdown.
I want to show this on my front-end in phtml file to take input from the user.
How can i do this.
Thanks
Try this
$attribute = Mage::getModel('eav/config')->getAttribute('catalog_product', 'language'); //here, "language" is the attribute_code
$allOptions = $attribute->getSource()->getAllOptions(true, true);
foreach ($allOptions as $instance) {
$myArray[$instance['value']] = $instance['label'];
}
print_r(($myArray));
So this is the problem I am running into. If I have a comment object, I want to create a renderable array that is using the display settings of that comment. As of now this is what I have:
$commentNew = comment_load($var);
$reply[] = field_view_value('comment', $commentNew, 'comment_body', $commentNew->comment_body['und'][0]);
Which works fine because I dont have any specific settings setup for the body. But I also have image fields and video embed fields that I need to have rendered the way they are setup in the system. How would I go about doing that?
Drupal core does it with the comment_view() function:
$comment = comment_load($var);
$node = node_load($comment->nid);
$view_mode = 'full'; // Or whatever view mode is appropriate
$build = comment_view($comment, $node, $view_mode);
If you need to change a particular field from the default, use hook_comment_view():
function MYMODULE_comment_view($comment, $view_mode, $langcode) {
$comment->content['body'] = array('#markup' => 'something');
}
or just edit the $build array received from comment_view() as you need to if implementing the hook won't work for your use case.
I have a block on my front page that is grabbing the two newest products with a custom product image called image_feature_front_right.
I use this code as the query:
$_helper = $this->helper('catalog/output');
$_productCollection = Mage::getModel("catalog/product")->getCollection();
$_productCollection->addAttributeToSelect('*');
$_productCollection->addAttributeToFilter("image_feature_front_right", array("notnull" => 1));
$_productCollection->addAttributeToFilter("image_feature_front_right", array("neq" => 'no_selection'));
$_productCollection->addAttributeToSort('updated_at', 'DESC');
$_productCollection->setPageSize(2);
I am able to get:
the image: echo $this->helper('catalog/image')->init($_product, 'image_feature_front_right')->directResize(230,315,4)
the product url: echo $_product->getProductUrl()
the product name: $this->stripTags($_product->getName(), null, true)
The only thing I am unable to get is the custom images label. I have tried echo $this->getImageLabel($_product, 'image_feature_front_right'), but that seems to do nothing.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

I imagine this is some sort of magento bug. The issue seems to be that the Magento core is not setting the custom_image_label attribute. Whereas for the default built-in images [image, small_image, thumbnail_image] it does set these attributes - so you could do something like:
$_product->getData('small_image_label');
If you look at Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_Abstract::getImageLabel() it just appends '_label' to the $mediaAttributeCode that you pass in as the 2nd param and calls $_product->getData().
If you call $_product->getData('media_gallery'); you'll see the custom image label is available. It's just nested in an array. So use this function:
function getImageLabel($_product, $key) {
$gallery = $_product->getData('media_gallery');
$file = $_product->getData($key);
if ($file && $gallery && array_key_exists('images', $gallery)) {
foreach ($gallery['images'] as $image) {
if ($image['file'] == $file)
return $image['label'];
}
}
return '';
}
It'd be prudent to extend the Magento core code (Ideally Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_Abstract, but I don't think Magento lets you override Abstract classes), but if you need a quick hack - just stick this function in your phtml file then call:
<?php echo getImageLabel($_product, 'image_feature_front_right')?>
