attributes order

  • Hello,
    in attribute manager
    if we add a new attribute and move it in another order
    the data in all the attributes below in the existing products page will be moved
    for example an existing product 

    alpha: 1
beta: 2
delta: 3

    in backend we add epsilon field and move it in an other order

    alpha
epsilon
beta
delta

    on the same product:

    alpha: 1
epsilon: 2
beta: 3

    is a correct behavior ?

    Hi @resurehtonatey,

    I see what do you mean.

    This will be improved in the next version.

    Hello,
    Thanks for your consideration.

    I tried in preprod the latest 2.9.27
    Well… there is a seriously bug…

    For many products (all ?), a field name appears randomly in another (n) field(s) value instead originaly empty
    If a product doesn’t have attribute, it create one, and same thing than below.

    Before:

    alpha: 1
beta: 2
delta: 3

    After:

    alpha: 1
beta: 2
omega: epsilon
delta: 3

    Regards

    Thank you for the details.

    It looks like you moved the delta attribute down and added an omega attribute. Is that correct? As I can see the delta has the same value as before so what is the exact problem in your example?

    Can you please provide a screenshot of your attributes settings and an example product edit screen?

    Hello,
    Not really, I just upgraded your plugin and see example below : screenshot
    on the left: before, on the right after
    a new field appears with another field title as value. (TITRE is another field name)

    This issue appears after I had upgraded the plugin, on many products with a (randomly) new field

    Hello,

    Some news.

    It’s better, no more interferences between exisitng attributes on existing product pages: new attibute on existing product.

    But… If I create a new attribute and change order in list, it doesn’t appears on existing product fields because we manage attributes on alphabetical orders.

    Workaround: in product-attributes.php template I use a personal filter for displaying attributes, I added a ksort for alphabetical sort.

    Hi @resurehtonatey,

    Thank you for the update.

    The attributes will not appear on a product page if they don’t have any saved value. This is why the new attribute defined in settings doesn’t show up until you save a value for a product.

    No, in back-end, in product’s edition page, please test it:

    • have more than 5 attributes
    • have an existing product with some filled fields
    • add a 2 news attribute (test1, test2), save
    • move test1 in another position in attributes list, save
    • edit an existing product

      • test2 appears but no test1
