Custom Product Attribute No Longer Showing for Variable Product with WC3.0

Okay figure it out from this topic.

But as any order will consist of both simple and variable product, I would need to check whether an order item is a simple or variable product. Then I notice that variable product has a non-zero “variation_id” and simple product has a zero “variation_id”. So, here’s a quick and dirty implementation of 2 custom attribute (Description and HS Tariff):

<dt class="description"><?php _e( 'Description:', 'wpo_wcpdf' ); ?></dt>
	<dd class="description">
	<?php 
	if($item['variation_id'] != '0'){
		$wpo_wcpdf->product_attribute('Description', $item['product']->parent); 
	}
	else{
		$wpo_wcpdf->product_attribute('Description', $item['product']); 
    }
	?>
	</dd>
<dt class="hs_tariff"><?php _e( 'HS Tariff:', 'wpo_wcpdf' ); ?></dt>
    <dd class="hs_tariff">
    <?php 
	if($item['variation_id'] != '0'){
		$wpo_wcpdf->product_attribute('HS Tariff', $item['product']->parent); 
	}
	else{
		$wpo_wcpdf->product_attribute('HS Tariff', $item['product']); 
	}
	?>
	</dd>

Hi! Glad to hear you found a solution.
Yes, WC3.0 is a bit of a pain in this aspect. Here’s a more compact version of your code, hope that helps!

<?php $wpo_wcpdf->product_attribute('Description', !empty($item['product']) && $item['product']->is_type( 'variation' ) ? $item['product']->parent : $item['product'] ); ?>

for completeness sake I recommend adding a check to see if the product still exists though!

<?php
if (!empty($item['product'])) {
	$wpo_wcpdf->product_attribute('Description', $item['product']->is_type( 'variation' ) ? $item['product']->parent : $item['product'] );					
}
?>

Hope that helps!

Hi Ewout,

Thank you so much for giving a cleaner line of code even though I have fixed it.
Will try it out.

Thanks!
